Originating from a single species that thrived in ancient times, Xenowyrms have become an incredibly diverse breed whose appearances vary depending on their habitats. Each Xenowyrm subspecies is heavily reliant on the power of a different type of mana, making them powerful magic users. Thalassas are a unique variety of Xenowyrm in that they are the only subspecies known to dwell in marine environments. Their porous skin and slender build are perfectly suited for the aquatic terrain, but they can only survive for short periods of time on land. Powerful users of water magic, they can create large waves and alter currents with a simple thought.

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.

Abhini is energetic and friendly, though she enjoys the thrill of the hunt a little more than her peers are comfortable with. She's large and powerful enough that catching any kind of prey is typically not a risky endeavor, and she will accompany other dragons to help them find things to eat, if invited. Sometimes she'll accompany them uninvited. When she has energy to spare, she twirls through the water to confuse sighted prey and to impress other dragons watching. Her "type", like her mother's, is nhiostrife wyverns, whom she tries to emulate and hopes will be interested in her.
