Nhiostrife Wyverns are one of the few known breeds of wyvern with more than one set of wings. Because of their four wings, Nhiostrifes are very nimble in the air and control their movements with ease. When it’s mating season, males put on a very beautiful and unique air dance in an attempt to charm a female. The amount of stripes on their wings vary, with more stripes being more attractive, although most have only two to four. Their general attitude is very passive and curious—they only fight if they or their families are in danger.

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.

Powerful, beautiful, and more graceful in the air than any other dragon in her territory, this female couldn't give less of a toot about the dances of the males if she tried. Her many merits have led more than one hopeful nhiostrife boy to try to court her, but inevitably she flies circles around her would-be suitors, sticking her tongue out and dumping them in the nearest tree at the end of it. When not busy foiling the plans of her dates, she enjoys heading down to the seashore to chat with Lalirethi, a red-finned tidal dragon with whom she is close friends.
