Water Walkers are small dragons that are frequently found around bogs and ponds. While they are flightless, they retain the flight sacs and hollow bones of their airborne cousins. These traits, coupled with their extraordinarily long, webbed toes, allow them to stand on top of calm waters, using their small sails to propel them wherever they please. They spend the majority of their lives on the water, retreating to the tops of lily pads when the waters become too rough to float atop.

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.

Pyyrix is a strong dragon who keeps watch over the sea and lakes. She is a near-master of the water and its crafts, and can move across water faster than most other dragons. While her enemies fear and curse her, those who ally with her praise her for her bravery and intelligence.  

She also enjoys sailing through shallow waters to pass the time, and loves to catch fish and play with other water dragons. Of course, she never lets down her guard during this time.
