What Furor Pygmies lack in size they make up for in ferocity. Their tough hides and dense fur are the perfect natural armor for fighting against opponents far larger than themselves. They will readily engage in a brawl with any challenger or creature that angers them no matter how outclassed they might seem. They are surprisingly hardy and the more riled up they get, the stronger they grow. Furor Pygmies get along well with other breeds and will happily travel along with them as long as they are shown proper respect. Nothing angers a Furor dragon more than when their companions are hurt, causing them to attack the offender relentlessly and without any thought of self preservation.

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.

Pygmy dragons are the smallest category of dragons, being on the same scale as domesticated animals. They are often found around concentrated populations of dragons, relying on their larger brethren to ward away potential predators and leave scraps. As such, the majority of a pygmy’s diet is scavenged. Due to their tiny size, pygmies do not breed with larger varieties of dragons.

Ruffian, true to her name, is a beastly fighter who isn't afraid to turn to dirty, cheap tactics to win. She gets this behavior from her mother and definitely idolizes her in many regards. Her father, a misunderstood Kovos Pygmy named Malevolence, was abducted by the villainous Scourgekeeper, Master, in order to draw her mother out. When her mother left to go rescue Malevolence, she entrusted Ruffian to protect the family home and younger sibling. Ruffian has lived by her vow to do so ever since. She is highly protective of her sibling and home and will tear anyone who threatens them apart, literally. Despite her minuscule size, actually even smaller than most Furors, Ruffian is a bold and powerful fighter. She attacks her foes quickly and relentlessly, her particularly small size giving way to unreal land speed. She is particular skilled at close quarters combat, with no real skill in any other area. She is an admittedly pathetic magic user and an even worse shot, being nearsighted.
