Tri-Horn Wyverns are a mountainous species, living in high altitude areas among rocks and snow. The rough and rugged climate has bred a tough and hardened species, prepared to do battle with both the elements and other creatures. Their most distinctive feature is the three-horned crest mounted upon their head, for which they were named; these toughened spikes are powerful weapons, used to battle against predators, prey and fellow Tri-Horn Wyverns. Both males and females of this species fight for territory and resources, and wear scars with pride. However, Tri-Horn wyverns have a soft side beneath their many spikes. They work in loyal packs, of which they are deeply protective; if one can gain their trust, Tri-Horn wyverns can be powerful allies through the mountains.

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.

Veteda is a very unassuming dragon. Not exactly young anymore, always trying to blend in with the background, polite and professional when dealing with others, he is known mostly for his relation to his brilliant younger brother Vetsiq. Where the older brother is quiet and unassuming, the younger is a loudmouth and quite socially inept and whenever the two meet it almost always ends in spats and fights. What most don't realise is that Veteda is actually the far more intelligent of the brothers and that he in fact taught Vetsiq all about observation and deduction. The main difference is that Veteda cares about his public image and what others think of him, so he uses quite a bit of his intellect to better his social skills and act in accordance with the usual customs. But although Veteda deals more easily with other dragons, he is in fact far less social than Vetsiq. There really is only one dragon Veteda cares about—his little brother who he will protect at all costs.
