Pumpkin Dragons are a very small breed, named after their affinity for pumpkins. They are always found living inside hollowed-out pumpkins, and are only seen during the harvest season. Young children often hollow out and decorate their pumpkins in the hope that a Pumpkin Dragon will make it his or her home.

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.

The night of the 26th of October 2011 was a cold, but clear night. GiratinaOF was walking through the area around the cave when he found some pumpkin eggs on a pumpkin patch. They hatched soon and one of them was named "Huge Pumpkin".

Huge Pumpkin is an energetic and happy male. He just can't sit calm, he's always active and has to do something. But he doesn't fight, he goes on longer trips about every month and even leaves his pumpkin at home. Dragons that have seen him then say he sleeps in a hole under the grass or in a pile of leaves. Although popular in the cave, he likes to be on his own and has done many things on his own.
