Flamingo Wyverns are so named for their resemblance to the tropical birds with whom they often share territory. Their most striking feature is the bony black crest over their faces and snouts, larger in males, aiding both in digging up food and protection when fighting for mates. Males are duller in color than females due to their habit of wandering from nest to nest and picking from less algae-rich feeding grounds.

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.

Dancing in the Tempest is well known among the white dragons to be a difficult patient. While most injured dragons will welcome time off when injured, Dancing in the Tempest hates being told to take a rest. He is known for flying out into storms, thinking that it improves his dancing and makes him stronger. However, he pushes himself too far, too fast and typically ends up with exhaustion. The white dragons have tried everything short of tying him down to get him to listen to them, only to find that he's out once the next big storm breaks.
