An almost strictly nocturnal breed, Ciriax Lindwyrms are especially attuned to the moons’ cycles. They spend nights patrolling the edges of their territory, aggressively fending off intruders while they feast on their prey. After two or three nights of feeding, often around the time of at least one full moon, Ciriax Lindwyrms retreat to the recesses of their cave or underground homes. These dragons make it particularly difficult to travel on nights that are well-lit by moonlight, often to an unsuspecting adventurer’s dismay.

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.

Two-headed dragons are unique enough to deserve a separate classification from ordinary dragons. They have two necks, two brains, two mouths, but one stomach and one main body. The two heads usually work together, but there are times when they will fight each other, snapping back and forth. Their unique anatomy prevents them from breeding with single-headed dragons.

Kaksi is valued in the clan as a great leader, able to take control of any situation and turn it in the right direction. But therein lies the problem, as both heads are totally independent and each thinks itself a better leader than the other. They begin to bicker almost right away when presented with any challenge, and impressive but wordy arguments are formed when they begin to debate about who is best suited for the role. One side often claims that she can connect with her fellow dragons and earn their respect that way. The other prefers impressing them and proving herself as a leader instead of stooping to their level. Many dragons believe that if Kaksi would just learn to get along with herself, much more would be accomplished around the clan.
