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.

Taipa's name comes from the Native American name meaning 'Spread Wings'. Her name was chosen for her because she liks showing off to humans and dragons alike. She will often spread her wings to show off her colourful markings.

Even though she is a very beautiful dragon, she will not be bred due to a rocky, horrible past of inbreeding. She will live the rest of her life free to do as she pleases in the safety of her master's eye.
