Hooded Murklings are a smaller breed of dragon and quite the shifty, cunning sort. Typically they are ambush predators, submerging themselves in murky waters among the reeds or beneath the mud and will launch themselves armed with a poisonous attack when suitable prey comes along. It’s not uncommon for one to barter for meat instead by using treasures stolen from other dragons or their hoards, and though they tend to be solitary the promise of riches and fine meats can easily sway a Hooded Murkling into joining up with others to lend a “helpful” claw. Playing nicely or fairly with said others is not a strength they often possess.

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.

Located at the edge of civilized Galsreim and led by three blue zyumorphs, the Scourgekeeper Redemption Squad is dedicated to solving the scourgekeeper problem one redemption at a time. Stealthy, secretive Arbewist likes to lurk just out of sight, the better to snatch some tasty morsel. Ryfva keeps threatening to electrocute him the next time he startles her.
