Desipis Dragons are an extremely dangerous breed, synonymous with the paths of desolation they leave in their wakes. These gargantuan beasts are infamous for their innate ability to control and manipulate the minds of others, which they use to pulverize the sanities of their foes and forge false memories. This power is especially effective on the foolish, and only the strongest-willed individuals have been known to resist a Desipis’s cunning. Most who anger Desipises do not live to tell the tale. Desipis Dragons are especially feared for their uncanny power of absorbing the magic of others with the fire they breathe and converting it into the bright reserves of crystallized mana that decorate their bodies.

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.

Reccy lives in a condo and pays for housing by making his housemate do it, and she happily obliges. His name is Reconnaissance, but after his insistent housemate kept shortening it to "Reccy", he decided to go along with it. He occupies the lower floor because he's too big to fit up the stairs (he can barely get his horned head in the archway), so she gets to have the top floor. As a shadow walker, she is drenched in magic and should be a prime target for Reccy's fire-based theft, but she said she likes his singing, and as a matter of principle, he spares anyone who pays him a genuine compliment. And he thinks he's a decent singer, so it's nice to have validation.
