Flamingo Wyverns are so named for their resemblance to the tropical birds with whom they often share territory. Their most striking feature is the bony black crest over their faces and snouts, smaller in females, aiding both in digging up food and protection from attack. Females are noticeably brighter than males due to their habit of not straying far from particularly algae-rich feeding grounds.

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.

Camingo Lyvern resides in a dank tunnel with a cavern lurker, and they seem to get along fine. He is diligent and conscientious (in her opinion) and belligerent and secretive (in others' opinion). There are piles of remains, mostly bones, beside the tunnel mouth, which Camingo isn't responsible for and doesn't find bothersome at all. She keeps a collection of swords, knives, and staves in the tunnel, one item of which she'll occasionally take out to show a guest. Other dragons question whether it's a good idea to leave weapons in the vicinity of a hostile cavern lurker. Camingo insists it's fine and threatens to use her weapons on anyone who tries to take anything from her home without her permission. "Anyone" and "anything" both happen to include her dear neighbor, but because he is so diligent and conscientious, there is no way he'd steal or allow himself to be stolen.
