Anagallis Dragons are a medium-sized omnivorous breed. Widespread and adaptable, their easygoing nature enables them to flourish under most conditions. They are social creatures, fun-loving and outgoing, and will readily defend smaller dragons from others’ aggression. They are fond of sunshine, and can often be found basking on rocks; on cloudy or stormy days they are more reluctant to venture out, and will often hide themselves away until the weather is more favorable.

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.

Ioyl is rather unnoticeable, particularly because he usually shows up in places that are being thrown into madness by Cocoanaut, Freshwater Taffy, and Horsefeather's. He is quite reasonable and a very good actor if he is let into a play—and the play is not disturbed by those whom he is unfortunately acquainted with. His attempts at becoming respectable get ruined by the three manic dragons—he insists he does not know them, which seems reasonable given their effects on the world around them. He believes that there is a parallel reality in which things function as they should, and aspires to escape out of the one where mania and extraterrestrial chickens are rife and into that one where physics and natural selection constrain the world order. He doubts his companions could follow without getting themselves killed.
