Nilia Pygmies reside mostly in mountainous regions, tending to live in large flocks. They are a curious, hyperactive breed; their curiosity often gets them into dangerous situations. Despite this, they are wary around other dragons and animals outside their breed. They are naturally shy and seek their own kind for companionship. Once the trust of a Nilia dragon is earned, they are highly loyal critters, sometimes to the point of being annoying.

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

Pygmy dragons are the smallest category of dragons, being on the same scale as domesticated animals. They are often found around concentrated populations of dragons, relying on their larger brethren to ward away potential predators and leave scraps. As such, the majority of a pygmy’s diet is scavenged. Due to their tiny size, pygmies do not breed with larger varieties of dragons.

User Description

She had been abandoned by her previous owner.

Well, obviously, since that's how all Dragons end up outside that cave, but no matter, that.

The egg was dying. It almost seemed like the previous owner had intended something for it, but gave up last minute. It took the time consuming work of Pika's four Red Dragons to Incubate the egg enough to hatch in time.

When she hatched, she was undersized. Pika expected she would grow out of that, but of course she was wrong. She never grew to be very big, even for a Pygmy. When a meal is caught by another group of Dragons for all, the Pygmies wrestle each other to see who gets the best parts. She always loses due to her size. Pika often brings extra food to help if there's not enough.

"If only I wasn't so small..." She thought.
