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.

Hoffiny is ashamed of both her name (therefore, she goes by Hasslehoff) and the rotten pumpkin she lives in. It has caved in so much that she can barely fit inside it anymore, and so she is constantly trying to steal another home. Sadly, her pumpkin is possessed, and it refuses to let her abandon it, so every time she tries to get out of it, it gets even more rotten and heavier. Not fond of being crushed, she rolls her pumpkin around and pokes her head out of the mouth to say hello to others. Obviously, this looks more than a little odd.
