Nilia Pygmies reside mostly in mountainous regions, tending to live in large flocks. They are a curious, hyperactive breed; their curiosity often gets them into dangerous situations. Despite this, they are wary around other dragons and animals outside their breed. They are naturally shy and seek their own kind for companionship. Once the trust of a Nilia dragon is earned, they are highly loyal critters, sometimes to the point of being annoying.

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.

Pyere is very friendly and inquisitive but a little unremarkable. She lives a house on the edge of the western woods where she serves as border keeper for a city-state and a warden of the forest in general. She enjoys visitors, although she gets very few. Despite her unassuming, even weak appearance due to the diminutive stature of her species, Pyere is an accomplished hunter because of her profession and displays trophies of downed animals proudly in her house. Despite her rather bland predicament her life might become a lot more interesting as enemy scouts have been spotted on the border of her City. She has heard rumors of a war declaration when she goes into town. Things might be annoyingly bland for her now, but a time of adventure might just be around the corner.
