Siyat Dragons are extremely smart and have an excellent memory. They are very quick and will often dive through the air making chirps and calls for attention if they feel ignored. Siyat dragons are herbivores and need to eat a lot to make up for all the energy they use with their excitable nature. Groups of Siyat Dragons have a hierarchical structure based on the color of their markings. It is thought that the social status of a dragon is determined by its incubation period—in addition to having different coloration, dragons allowed more time to develop are considered wiser and of higher status.

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.

An accountant for the Mayor, Daigneault is better known by townsfolk as the guy who does standup at the Half Loop Club on Tuesday nights. He's a quick wit with a lot of tales and saved jokes, and he can keep the most restless and critical audience engaged and wishing his shows were longer. Even a mundane story about collecting twigs is risible when Daigneault tells it, and he has a way of bringing up topics from the beginning of a routine to the end when audiences don't expect it. The owner of the Half Loop Club not too long ago arranged a larger venue to be built outside in the back of the clubhouse, due to the number and size of people who wished to see him, such as the interested pair of wealthy leodons who would be a fire hazard indoors. Daigneault couldn't totally predict how this move could change (or not change) his shows, but one thing was for sure: doing comedy outdoors means no inside jokes.
