Aether Wyverns have the ability to control winds utilising air mana. During mating season, rival males often attempt to impress females by hanging onto a rock beside the female and letting another Aether Wyvern blast gale-force winds at them. The one to stay on the rock the longest wins, and if the female wins, she will reject both males. These wyverns also use their ability to control winds to blow away intruding dragons or to capture prey, though an Aether Wyvern’s aim is not perfect. As a solution to their imperfect aim, these wyverns will create large winds that often blow away much more than they originally intended to.

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.

Touchback likes to do chores using air magic, and after three destructive incidents, the leaders decided she doesn't need to do so many chores. She wasn't trying to get out of work on purpose and is a bit sad that her superiors think she's unreliable because she can't "win" at chores if she's called unreliable. When Touchback has a lot of energy to let out, she's assigned to play handegg, a sport with a lot of running and collisions and definitely no application of air, whether that be flight or magic. The leaders hope that this will train her to be a little less reliant on magic, since magic use is penalized in the game. Touchback loves handegg and the physical aspect of it. When her team gets fouls, the other team is more likely to win, so she carefully follows the rules. That care has yet to be applied to chores.
