Coastal Waverunners spend most of their time skimming the waves along the coast, snatching up their prey from the shallow waters. They have developed markings along the leading edges of their body that help disguise them as breaking waves. When they are not hunting, they enjoy playing among sand-dunes and shallow tide-pools. These dragons live in small but noisy rookeries. Some stories say Waverunners can fly for days on end without landing.

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.

Toirneach Scamall is a bit smaller than other costal waverunners he has come across. A cheery and kind dragon with a playful disposition, he loves to race his fellow fast fliers (even though he rarely wins). His family tends to tease him at times since he gets very nervous and shy around any and all females of dragon or human kind alike. Altogether though, he is a very friendly dragon with a large heart.
