Bright-Breasted Wyverns are a breed of dragon easily recognized by their bright red markings. They are a small breed, only the size of a full-grown man. However, they have developed poisonous barbs on their feet to make up for their size. Their coloration is used to warn off potential predators of the danger, and is also used to attract mates. They are very social, and can often be seen preening in large groups.

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.

Contrary to his name, Verdantsong does not actually like to sing. Instead he prefers to let another dragon provide the music while he combines his own unique dance moves with aerial acrobatic maneuvers. Sometimes if there isn't anyone else around to make music he practices his art by himself, often earning him strange glances from his cavemates, but he doesn't seem to notice. He's heard some of the water-dwelling dragons offer encouragement by saying "Just keep swimming." though he's amended it for his own motto to "Just keep dancing."
