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.

Messmer, as she is usually referred to, is indeed a mess maker. She is overly-hyperactive, never stops moving or talking, and becomes three times as bad whenever she finds cookies. After she practically destroyed the entire Republicator Territories with only the power of a single cookie, she has been banned from them by the Jeedi.

Secretly, the Separators sneak her cookies whenever they can, making sure that once she has them she goes right to the Republicators' main base. This has created a sort of love-hate relationship with them for Messmer, as she is a loyal Republicator. Still, she just can't resist those cookies...
