Nhiostrife Wyverns are one of the few known breeds of wyvern with more than one set of wings. Because of their four wings, Nhiostrifes are very nimble in the air and control their movements with ease. When it’s mating season, males put on a very beautiful and unique air dance in an attempt to charm a female. The amount of stripes on their wings vary, with more stripes being more attractive, although most have only two to four. Their general attitude is very passive and curious—they only fight if they or their families are in danger.

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.

Alexela Palindromida comes from two wholly separate yet intrinsically the same isolated, tight-knit groups of nhiostrifes living in a remote desert valley hidden among some mountains, shrouded in mystery and frequented by bizarre happenings.

One of those mysteries is how Alex comes from two completely different groups, neither of which have any contact with each other nor the outside world. Another is how he got to Nworset City, so far away that there aren't even maps that could help him return home. He kind of misses the sense of community that is lost in bustling Nworset. It doesn't help that he keeps chancing across a chrono-xenowyrm that reminds him of somewyrm from his old town. He does well enough on a small farm outside town, raising hogs for market. He retained an imaginary peach seed from John Peters (the farmer) and has planted it. Since the imaginary peach tree has matured he has begun selling fruit. Many struggle to eat invisible, intangible fruit, but they restore mana.
