Hellfire Wyverns are so named for their foul tempers and fiery visages. Their social structure places all females above all males, due to superior physical characteristics and violent dispositions. Forced subservience of the males causes them to become vicious, petty, antisocial, and passive-aggressive compared to the aggressive and social females. However, orphaned hatchlings raised by foster parents of another species can develop surprisingly even tempers and mellow dispositions, proving that their defining unpleasant nature is, in fact, a learned behavior.

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.

Spitrage is all warrior. She was raised by the clan, so she knows how to control her spitting rage, but once it's let loose, it would be foolish not to fear her wrath. She doesn't spend a lot of time with the clan so much any more, but she does her part by fighting off intruders. Almost anything and anyone that isn't a member of the clan qualifies as an intruder to Spitrage, which can sometimes cause problems for any other nearby lone dragon. (Even if that dragon is a friendly passerby).
