Spitfires are a desert breed of dragon. Their dull brown bodies contrast with their brilliant turquoise markings, and they only blaze brighter when these dragons fight. Spitfires are notorious for their territorial natures, and the wing-edges of most are ripped and tattered before their first year is out. Spitfires are also noteworthy for their brilliant blue fire, which is used not for hunting or fighting, but rather for making glass caves from the sand, in which the dragons can soak up the sun.

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.

Teal Flame is very aggressive. She motivates the hatchlings to never give up, and sometimes how to fly. She blows fire and runs through it, enjoying the heat of the flame. Her mate is Blazing Flame of Peril, and they like to blow fire into the air, most of which is amusing for the others to watch. Teal loves flying over volcanoes and such. She often sees Beautiful Sunray flying in the morning, when the sun is the hottest, and before the sun goes down. She says "Hello" occasionally, but mostly ignores her.
