Pitfire Dragons are an infernal breed, reveling in the suffering and misery of others. These dragons are not known to be strong magic users, nor are they capable of flight. However, these weaknesses are made up for in the extent of their physical prowess. They have little respect for most other creatures, including members of their own family group; however, those that have fought or fallen in battle against formidable foes are highly revered. They are constantly on the move, always on the hunt for food or a skirmish. The malevolent nature of Pitfires is feared by many, and the damage they leave in their wake is a sure sign for those to be wary. Pitfire activity has been noted to increase as the weather grows colder and the nights grow longer.

When slain by a formidable foe, a Pitfire will revive with a renewed vigor and ferocity. Wreathed in an otherworldly energy that manifests as ghoulish flames, the newly exalted dragon will exhibit dangerous magical abilities and an increased hunger for cruelty.

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.

Mwwmi is a self-described master detective, using her superior sensory ability to identify her arch-nemesis, Secretly a Tatterdrake, even when he is in disguise. Of course, a lot of other dragons can identify Secretly a Tatterdrake when he is in disguise, but those who would admit that to either pitfire have been weeded out of the population by natural selection. Mwwmi is remarkably docile, not going out of her way to start fights if she thinks she is on Secretly a Tatterdrake's trail. Of course, she will never pass up the opportunity for a good brawl if one appears, and if given the option she prefers battles where she is outnumbered by her opponents.

Mwwmi likes the idea of universal healthcare. If everyone she defeats gets repaired, soon she'll have a whole army out to kill her, and she loves fighting when she's outnumbered. She has figured out she cannot bring such services about by violence, so she will vote to fight for her rights (so long as she can use combat metaphors).
