Imperial Fleshcrownes are an active and playful breed. They are equally good at flying and climbing and while they are not good swimmers, they love to take an occasional dip. Fleshcrownes live in large social groups called “communities.” Adult Fleshcrownes share the responsibility of looking after the young, who are very playful and active. Even after maturing, they retain their curious and mischievous natures, often getting into trouble. The fleshy crowns on their head can be raised at will, and are usually erect when happy, excited, or scared. Fleshcrownes—being a very peaceful breed—are more prone to flight than fight. If threatened, they can raise their crowns while hissing in an attempt to scare off predators.

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.

Sirsi is a peaceful, empathetic dragon, always looking for ways to make others feel better, whether physically or emotionally. She is aware that the world can be a terrifying, harsh place and has spent many years working on her defensive abilities for times when flight and bluffing aren't options. During the day, her usual state of calm is punctured by the youngsters running up and down the rock-littered road, hopping from tree branches, and picking fights with each other. They seem to do this in front of Sirsi just to make her worry and fuss over them, and worry and fuss she does.
