Coral Pygmy Wyverns are coastline vagrants, dominant in their ecosystems. They spend most of their time swimming around shallow coral atolls, snacking on the creatures that make their homes there. Don’t be fooled by their small size—these tiny dragons pack a ferocious punch; they can be painful to sharks, dragons, and other substantially larger predators. They are, unsurprisingly, difficult to integrate into human society.

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.

Seven has a great love of zucchini inherited from his illustrious mother, and he lives in one of those predominantly-human cities, where he runs a bakery specialising in zucchini bread. Because of zoning or some such nonsense, the humans keep telling him he is not allowed to sell any foodstuffs. Perhaps it's that rule about hand-washing, which he cannot follow because he doesn't have any hands. He did not inherit his mother's battle prowess, and anyways he wouldn't have time to bake if he spent all day fending off the local law enforcement, so he decided to turn his bakery into a charity. He will gift a complementary loaf of bread to anyone who donates five shards. Elsewhere in the same city, there are some very angry bureaucrats trying to draft a new charity law, but Seven has no idea what that's about. He has a magical portal connecting his basement to Seven Questions University's Hippo Campus, where his fiancee lives.
