Hellfire Wyverns are so named for their foul tempers and fiery visages. Their social structure places all females above all males, due to superior physical characteristics and violent dispositions. Forced subservience of the males causes them to become vicious, petty, antisocial, and passive-aggressive compared to the aggressive and social females. However, orphaned hatchlings raised by foster parents of another species can develop surprisingly even tempers and mellow dispositions, proving that their defining unpleasant nature is, in fact, a learned behavior.

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.

Sapphiare takes great pride in her looks and is known to collect shards of glass and mirrors. She loves being able to see herself and will sometimes spend her time looking at her rippling reflection in the waters nearby. She is sometimes rejected by the other dragons due to her "It's all about me" type of attitude so she keeps to herself most of the time. Sapphiare likes to show off and make displays of fire, hoping to impress the other dragons. While this tends to entertain the little ones it annoys the water dwelling, cold loving, and plant dragons for fire is not their favorite and so her little fire shows tend to end rather quickly.
