Common Pygmies are sweet in temperament and palate. They spend a fair amount of time foraging for and scavenging food but have a particular fondness for sweet tasting treats, such as honey. When pickings are slim, they can hunt songbirds and small mammals. Common Pygmies stay in large groups, migrating alongside their food supply. Although capable of the same basic vocal sounds of most other dragons, Common Pygmies prefer to communicate through body language. It is perhaps no surprise, then, that Common Pygmy hatchlings are rather affectionate.

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.

Lukrios was born into a large Clan of Pygmy Dragons. They always moved from place to place, looking for other Clans to scavenge from. Lukrios didn't like all of the traveling. He just wanted to settle down. When his family moved in with the Valley Clan, Lukrios was hooked. He loved the Valley. He loved to hunt small birds in the lush forests and soak in it's shallow hotsprings. Lukrios always had a lot of energy, and in the Valley there was no end to what he could do. When the rest of his family left, Lukrios stayed behind. He begged Sonnoh to make him part of the Clan. Now he lives with them. In the Valley Lukrios is never bored or alone.
