Hellfire Wyverns are so named for their foul tempers and fiery visages. Their social structure places all females above all males, due to superior physical characteristics and violent dispositions. Forced subservience of the males causes them to become vicious, petty, antisocial, and passive-aggressive compared to the aggressive and social females. However, orphaned hatchlings raised by foster parents of another species can develop surprisingly even tempers and mellow dispositions, proving that their defining unpleasant nature is, in fact, a learned behavior.

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.

I've lived is a language teacher at the "Craft Store" in the Charlie 4 network. She is fluent in five languages, and other staff say that she knows a sixth: vulgar language. She asserts that the sixth one is spoken when there are no youngsters around, usually when buildings are changed again. Of all the communities named Charlie, 4 is the only one whose building fronts are routinely switched around, and it's the only thing about the place that I've lived despises because she finds it silly. Every year or so, the custodians take off the signs from buildings and caves and swap them or repaint them, and in the end, inspectors make sure none of the labels are correct. I've lived's residential cave complex has been called "Geology Department", "Mana House", and "Lumber" most recently. She once went to a "Bar" after a stressful day and nearly set the outdoor furniture alight in a fit of rage when there was no alcohol served there because it was the community center and she forgot.
