Hellfire Wyverns are so named for their foul tempers and fiery visages. Their social structure places all females above all males, due to superior physical characteristics and violent dispositions. Forced subservience of the males causes them to become vicious, petty, antisocial, and passive-aggressive compared to the aggressive and social females. However, orphaned hatchlings raised by foster parents of another species can develop surprisingly even tempers and mellow dispositions, proving that their defining unpleasant nature is, in fact, a learned behavior.

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.

This dragon is responsible for maintaining the ever-glowing signal atop a high mountain. Other dragons use it as a navigation landmark, particularly in bad weather when visibility is poor, so his role is extremely important.

Unfortunately, keeping the signal alight is difficult. Mountaintops are notorious for high winds, and precipitation blown by said wind consistently douses it. During severe storms, this dragon has to continually blow his own fiery breath on the signal to keep it lit.

He dreams often of basking in warm sunlight with little-to-no wind around.
