Perhaps among the most venerated of dragon breeds is the Zyumorph, a breed whose selfless heroism and strong moral compass are nearly unparalleled by other dragons. Zyumorphs have an innate urge to fend off wrongdoing, and as such, are often sought after in times of peril. Although they are independently quite capable fighters, it is said that their true might is not unlocked until all six Zyumorphs are brought together in times of great duress.

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.

Sir Spriant is the chief scatologist for the Guardian of Nature's Call. She studies all manner of scat, flac, and droppings, recording and cataloging all manner of aspects of faeces and expelling bodily waste. Some consider it a poopy job, but that's exactly what Spriant likes about it. She hopes her research will inspire more practical scientists to apply the knowledge she has gathered by making more convenient chamber-pots and toiletry supplies, making relieving oneself more pleasant for future generations.
