Rift Wyrms are dragons adapted to both the frigid depths of the sea and the void that exists in the space between spaces. They have the ability to rip holes in the fabric of space that lead into and out of the void, and can manipulate the size and location of these rifts with additional effort. Their bodies give off an unsettling chill, while their mouths tend to glow from the mana they’ve consumed. Between their appearance and their method of travel, Rift Wyrms have a reputation as eldritch creatures that do not belong in this world. They tend to have a mischievous streak facilitated by their abilities. This ranges by individual from harmless japery to active malevolence, and many people and dragons are wary of them. Despite their reputation as tricksters, these wyrms are curious and may choose to help others on a whim just as often as they decide to harm.

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.

As her name may suggest, Manamaw is constantly overflowing with magic power thanks to her gluttonous taste in mana. She is known for gorging herself on the crystals and will even go so far as to steal revived mana from humans. She is not particular on the elemental power contained within the mana, though it's clear her favorite is of her own affinity. With all of this mana, it stands to reason that Manamaw is a great magic user, but that isn't quite the case. She does use a fair bit of the mana she consumes. As per her breed, she constantly zips in and out of reality to travel (i.e. to her next meal.) She won't hesitate to defend herself with powerful blasts of magic. The thing is, though, these are the only two things she does with her power. She is a simple dragon with simple desires and only really uses magic to get around and send off potential foes with bursts of energy. Aside from that, she's mostly solitary and doesn't care to bother anybody, not unless they have mana on them.
