Originating from a single species that thrived in ancient times, Xenowyrms have become an incredibly diverse breed whose appearances vary depending on their habitats. Each Xenowyrm subspecies is heavily reliant on the power of different types of mana, making them powerful magic users. Astrapi are easily the most temperamental of all Xenowyrm subspecies. Their unpredictable behavior—coupled with their masterful control of lightning magic—has the potential for devastating results. Most of their time is spent airborne, flying through the skies or circling mountainsides for prey.

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.

This sir steps up to be the judge of tidy manners, polished scales

Pleasant smells and maidens' nails; silver spoons and vivid sails.

Forget the passion, blazing fire: that belongs in fairy tales

A modern dragon yearns to lift his ego when all else fails.

-

Well, Glosa stokes his ego's might,

Wielding etiquette like great-swords, he assails

His unsuspecting guests: "No! Do it right!"

This sir steps up to be the judge of tidy manners, polished scales

-

Whatever can be judged, he'll judge on sight:

Any passing odour he inhales

How fish swim or how a bird takes flight

Pleasant smells and maidens' nails; silver spoons and vivid sails.

-

He's all self-centered, not the least contrite

And unconcerned that he incites travails

He is such an urbanite!

Forget the passion, blazing fire: that belongs in fairy tales

-

So long as everyone around's polite;

Glosa's calm; the world inhales

But soon will end the brief respite

A modern dragon yearns to lift his ego when all else fails.
