An almost strictly nocturnal breed, Ciriax Lindwyrms are especially attuned to the moons’ cycles. They spend nights patrolling the edges of their territory, aggressively fending off intruders while they feast on their prey. After two or three nights of feeding, often around the time of at least one full moon, Ciriax Lindwyrms retreat to the recesses of their cave or underground homes. These dragons make it particularly difficult to travel on nights that are well-lit by moonlight, often to an unsuspecting adventurer’s dismay.

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.

Two-headed dragons are unique enough to deserve a separate classification from ordinary dragons. They have two necks, two brains, two mouths, but one stomach and one main body. The two heads usually work together, but there are times when they will fight each other, snapping back and forth. Their unique anatomy prevents them from breeding with single-headed dragons.

Neoma, despite her threatening appearance, is actually quite docile and friendly. She only really gets uppity during bright nights, where her instincts take over a bit. During such times, she will savagely hunt about anything she can catch, though she avoids attacking other dragons. Otherwise, she is perfectly harmless and even sociable, though quite lethargic during the day. That said, Neoma will absolutely lash out if she feels she is in peril. She may also defend those close to her, though that mostly depends on how attached she is to an individual and if she sees protecting them as a worthy investment. She can be a bit cold towards considered friends, mostly perceived through her daytime lethargy, but Neoma is never aggressive or snappy with them, maybe just dismissive or quiet. This quietness is another defining trait. It seems the brighter the night, the more vocal she is, spouting ferocious roars and grunts. But, the brighter the day, she more relaxed and silent she is.
