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.

Spinning in the Wind loves to fly out on windy days, with the days before a hurricane hits being his favorite. He thinks that spinning with and against the wind makes him a stronger flyer and dancer. Sometimes when a hatchling shows promise with dancing or flying he'll convince the flying instructor to let him take them out on a high wind flight. Under supervision of course as he is a very harsh teacher.
