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.

Cindars, being the first Hellfire Wyvern in Moss Clan and having no females to bow down to, did not develop the nasty temperament of the average Hellfire Wyvern. Instead he, strangely enough, took on qualities of a Water Walker. This is probably due to the fact that his closest brood-mate was Titan Tanz, a Water Walker with strong leadership skills. He too attempted to walk on water when he was a hatchling but he found it didn't work as well for him as it did for his friend. Now that he is an adult Cindars spend most of his time flying over bogs and swamps while Titan glides below.
