Iratus Cantormaris Dragons are a chaotic, malevolent breed of coastal-dwellers. Their annual migrations at the start of spring are among the first indications that winter has ended. They use their haunting calls to lure people with a deep resentment to them in an attempt to slake their hunger for carnage. It is considered a sign of ill luck to hear their calls.

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.

Cale is every bit as chaotic as she looks. A proponent of madness and destruction, Cale seeks to burn all in her path. She has been rejected by her family for this exact behavior and feared by many for her malevolent schemes. Cale gets along only with those that share her love of anarchy. She will frequently call out to them with her alluring song of destruction, bringing them in close and often enlisting them as her minions. The only reason she hasn't gone about ruining the world is her brother, Incubus. Cale is practically fearless. She laughs in the face of death and takes pride in inflicting violence. But Incubus terrifies her. Bigger and stronger, he ensures she is kept somewhat tame by dropping in on her whenever he hears her song. He makes this enigmatic, threatening demon into a frightened whelp whenever he shows up. This is mostly because, Incubus is Cale's role model and hero. He is a figure that, to her, can never be surpassed.
