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.

Intermediary is a good mediator, not because he can speak persuasively or brings peace with his very presence. Actually, he sort of does the latter. Whenever two or more dragons are in a loud, angry argument or brawling, and Intermediary finds it extremely annoying, he has a three-step plan to stop them. Step 1: create a force field around himself. Step 2: set it on fire. Step 3: stand between the feuding parties. They can't focus when there's this pyralspite refusing to get out of the way, and they will calm down and talk things out. His job done, Intermediary returns to what he was doing.
