Pyralspite dragons are small, swift dragons that can breathe an intensely hot flame. They get their name from their resemblance to and affinity for garnets of the pyralspite family—they hoard such gems, preferring garnets that match their variant, and can tell the type of garnet from how it tastes. The orange variant is called Spessartine. These Pyralspites are more fun-loving and mellow than others, and are optimistic as a whole. Their preferred habitat is coastal areas.

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.

Ever since the Zyumorph of the Waters appeared to Prefab's town to settle a magical and destructive dispute that threatened life on the coastline, Prefab has decided to dedicate his life to be a force for good as well. While a handful of unscrupulous dragons try to summon the Great Mediator by causing trouble, Prefab and his team fly out to stop them and handle other smaller threats. In their spare time, he and some of his friends travel along the region's coast to educate themselves about other dragons and their ways of life, in the hopes that doing so will facilitate knowledge sharing and help everyone get along better. Prefab wonders what would happen if the Coast Zyumorph (or any of the other five) were to appear to him during a time of peace. He would probably faint.
