On sunny days when the sea is clear and sparkling, coastal villages are often treated to a spectacular sight. While normally shy, Tideweaver Lindwyrms are emboldened by fair weather, and when one starts to dance, the rest soon follow. However, their intricate fins and complex dances are more than just a dazzling show. Tideweavers rely on slight changes in their movements and fin positions to communicate with others of their kind. This communication is key; the lindwyrms are almost always found traveling within tightly bonded family groups. To show affection, they have been known to gently hold one another with their small front legs.

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.

jHasp is fond of fasteners. Whenever storms hurl ships against the cliffs and reefs he calls home, he explores the wreckage to collect any latches, ties, and bindings he can find. The way two objects can become connected into a whole fascinates him. Perhaps it's a metaphor for love, or perhaps it's a tiny emulation of gravity, without which life as he knows it would be impossible because the atoms would never come together to form complex molecules and cells and whatnot. He keeps his hoard safe in a small cavern almost all the way up the cliffs. Because of the Deathbramble Forest above, he doesn't have to worry about invaders from above. His neighbours make fun of him for the altitude of his collection, but he is proud of the location. He thinks his hoard is high clasp.
