Perhaps among the most venerated of dragon breeds is the Zyumorph, a breed whose selfless heroism and strong moral compass are nearly unparalleled by other dragons. Zyumorphs have an innate urge to fend off wrongdoing, and as such, are often sought after in times of peril. Although they are independently quite capable fighters, it is said that their true might is not unlocked until all six Zyumorphs are brought together in times of great duress.

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.

Zyumoprg is an esteemed and awe-inspiring force for good, though one with atrocious spelling. No one dares criticize or even hint to the Great Sands Zyumorph about improving or at least occasionally consulting a dictionary. It seems like a trivial matter to a magnificent, accomplished, and probably busy guardian of the desert. A handful of writers wonder if they should simply add every one of Zyumoprg's misspellings as variant spellings in reference books, but that might lead to more problems in the future.
