Bright-Breasted Wyverns are a breed of dragon easily recognized by their bright red markings. They are a small breed, only the size of a full-grown man. However, they have developed poisonous barbs on their feet to make up for their size. Their coloration is used to warn off potential predators of the danger, and is also used to attract mates. They are very social, and can often be seen preening in large groups.

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.

Ornithodrake harbors a great love for birds of every shape and size, but his favorite has always been brightly colored tropical birds. As a result, he spends most of his time trying to teach himself the vocalizations of the various parrots, parakeets and lovebirds that reside in his rain forest home. His main goal is to gain the ability to converse with the tropical birds so they can share stories and secrets.
