Hellfire Wyverns are so named for their foul tempers and fiery visages. Their social structure places all females above all males, due to superior physical characteristics and violent dispositions. Forced subservience of the males causes them to become vicious, petty, antisocial, and passive-aggressive compared to the aggressive and social females. However, orphaned hatchlings raised by foster parents of another species can develop surprisingly even tempers and mellow dispositions, proving that their defining unpleasant nature is, in fact, a learned behavior.

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.

Wind will blow and water will run

But Tsukara is like the burning sun

Her mastery of her element is elite

She revels in the power of her heat

The brightest, hottest, bluest flame

Like its owner, impossible to tame.

She lives in the rocky granite hills

Practicing her fiery fighting skills

Forging treasures in the deep

On lava-heated rocks does sleep

Melting crushing rocks and stones

Making diamonds from their bones.

Her might lies within her bated breath

Immune she'll never burn to death

She forges from the volcanic flow

Treasures that shine and dance and glow

Envied by nobles, princes, and kings

Danger and battle her treasure brings.

One day she will leave it all behind

And with another in love will bind

And raise her young in fiery caves

Away from danger and other knaves

She'll teach them the secret of her breath

And protect them even to her death.
