Spitfires are a desert breed of dragon. Their dull brown bodies contrast with their brilliant turquoise markings, and they only blaze brighter when these dragons fight. Spitfires are notorious for their territorial natures, and the wing-edges of most are ripped and tattered before their first year is out. Spitfires are also noteworthy for their brilliant blue fire, which is used not for hunting or fighting, but rather for making glass caves from the sand, in which the dragons can soak up the sun.

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.

Orneios Of Olyd is Orneios's first child. She loves to hang out with her Mom and is called "Mama's girl" in her clan but is respected because she is the leader's daughter. Her brother is an ultraviolet dragon and she loves him to death. There is never a time of day when you will not see her without her mom or her brother. Her father, though, is never around, preferring to prowl the skies rather than stay on the ground but he will wrap his long body around her at night to protect her from the dragons that slip out of the shadows at night and are looking for a defenseless dragon.
