Mistlet Pygmies thrive in humid environments and are most content when frolicking in the rain or fog. The cheerful demeanor they exhibit provides a remarkable contrast to their shadowy appearance, bringing joy in otherwise gloomy environments. Mistlets are an especially beautiful sight in long summer evenings, as their streak of vibrant scales catch the fading sunlight. They spend a great deal of their time foraging for edible roots and insects, and sometimes enjoy treats in the form of small fish or frogs.

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.

Yemws is an energetic little dragon. She loves playing with the other dragons, but she tends to get on their nerves. She's also pretty brave and reckless, frequently irritating Wispy and Small Phry. They both have tried to chase after her, but she's fast and small, easily avoiding them. She loves hunting small animals and chasing anything that moves, even if it's much larger than her, including, of course, the local cows. The other dragons tend to pick off stray cows for a snack in the confusion Yemws causes. She also loves riding on top of Nightfall, as well as playing with her tail. Nightfall doesn't mind, though.
