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.

This energetic Dark Myst pygmy loves nothing better than flying around and having fun. Especially when it rains, which is good, since the swampy area he calls home is rarely dry for long. However, the day he hatched from his egg was unusually sunny, and as his parents watched the skies curiously, something strange happened! The sunlight quickly darkened as a shadow passed over the land, shrouding those below in darkness for several moments that then vanished as quickly as it had arrived, just as the little hatchling was taking its first breaths. In remembrance of this wondrous phenomena, he was named Eclipsetalon.
