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 dark red variant is known as Pyrope. They tend to be fiercely loyal and noble, and have a stronger sense of justice than other Pyralspites. They live primarily in volcanic 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.

She prides herself as a stylish femme fatale. Asscher takes great care to ensure she appears her best in front of others: glittering scales, perfect proportions, and the look of someone who hasn't missed a mating season since growing full wings. But Asscher's attractive appearance is just that, an appearance. She is less into, well, you know, and more using her own appeal to get attention. Asscher loves having eyes on her and innocently entertaining mature ideas. Her many siblings are not very enthused about her behavior. Some are annoyed by it, but most (namely her brothers) worry for her and warn her not to be so promiscuous. She gets annoyed with them, since they will often follow her and drive away any unsavory types she may attract. They'll often have back-and-forths, Asscher insists she's only having fun and that she should be allowed freedom to do what she wants. They, of course, argue fiercely back. For as frustrating as they are, Asscher is happy her brothers care about her.
