Bright-Breasted Wyverns are a breed of dragon easily recognized by their bright red markings. They are a small breed, only the size of a full-grown man. However, they have developed poisonous barbs on their feet to make up for their size. Their coloration is used to warn off potential predators of the danger, and is also used to attract mates. They are very social, and can often be seen preening in large groups.

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.

Billy was always made of fun by the other dragons because of his size. He was an outcast from the herd and kept to himself. One day, he was sick and tired of being a loser, and left the herd. Billy traveled day and night to find a place where he would fit in. Finally, one stormy night, he stumbled upon a tiny island. Nothing but rodents and birds lived there and the plants grew low to the ground. Billy was a giant in a world of miniatures. The family of pygmy dragons that lived there gazed in awe at the humongous dragon, many of them had never seen a normal sized dragon. The playful dragons saw Billy as a god. Billy rejoiced in the newly found attention and love. He kept his old ways of being a loner, but was never too far away from the family of pygmies.
