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.

Many flamingo wyverns are known for being cranky, belligerent, easily offended, unpleasant, and vicious beasts. Sweetest, however, is known for being cranky, belligerent, easily offended, unpleasant, vicious, AND capable of creating the most delicious sherberts on this side of the country. Running a small dairy parlor with iron claws, his angry shrieks and impeccably high standards regarding everything both serve to terrify and amuse his guests, the patrons knowing he'd never really lay a talon on paying customers... but woe betide the cheapskate who tries to snag a dessert and slip out without giving his dues!
