Originating from a single species that thrived in ancient times, Xenowyrms have become an incredibly diverse breed whose appearances vary depending on their habitats. Each Xenowyrm subspecies is heavily reliant on the power of different types of mana, making them powerful magic users. Mageia, found exclusively in desert regions, are thought to be the wisest Xenowyrm subspecies. Due to their knowledge of the magi element, they are able to cast a variety of magics, including teleportation. Their beautiful yellow scutes are reflective and smooth like glass, making them very valuable to collectors.

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.

Sourcery is a big, friendly dragon who is happy to reside in a tall house in a busy city. Many of the humans there perpetrate that magic-users of a particular lineage number—an eighth child of an eighth child of an eighth child—are immensely powerful, even for their sort. While that is an urban myth, the possibility is fun to entertain. During those long nights studying spells and solutions, Sourcery has pondered more than once what a mageia xenowyrm (already tremendously powerful) could be capable of as a "wizard squared". Immeasurable destruction with the flare of the nostrils, maybe. Scary thoughts. Luckily, the humans' tales aren't true.
