Aether Wyverns have the ability to control winds utilising air mana. During mating season, rival males often attempt to impress females by hanging onto a rock beside the female and letting another Aether Wyvern blast gale-force winds at them. The one to stay on the rock the longest wins, and if the female wins, she will reject both males. These wyverns also use their ability to control winds to blow away intruding dragons or to capture prey, though an Aether Wyvern’s aim is not perfect. As a solution to their imperfect aim, these wyverns will create large winds that often blow away much more than they originally intended to.

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.

Throw Caution to the Winds is an amateur gardener, often found tending to her plot of land in her spare time. It contains the greatest variety of plants anyone in the territory has seen, including a number of species initially believed to be unable to survive in such an environment. For first time viewers, most of the garden contains things they've never heard before, all carefully documented on tablets kept in the hall of Caution's cave. The list includes melismor-head pimpernels, red blanched horehounds, open book cycads, flying khusa sprouts, chicken chives, hip hops, bell peppers, dongle cutter plants, crockpot pines, lilac-bottomed wallflowers, and so on. Caution says that she named none of them; they all came from the sellers or from published materials. She also promises that none are toxic or otherwise harmful to the dragons of the territory, and everything is walled off to prevent spreading. Several of the plants in the garden have found uses, from medicines to paint pigments.
