Sophrosyne Dragons are a rare sight, typically making themselves known only to protect and heal the vulnerable. A visit from one serves as a reminder that kindness prevails, and that there’s always hope for positive change. While it is known that they possess the power to reverse botched spells, some claim they can even cure methodically-cast curses. This has never been formally documented, but these dragons have been seen arriving in the aftermath of violence, and the scars of tragedy seem to heal faster in their wake. The feathers of a Sophrosyne have thus become a symbol of perseverance and light in the face of darkness.

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.

Footballer plays a game in which the players manoeuvre a pentagonal- and hexagonal-patched ball with their feet. Humans from different cultures all have their own names for a game like this, but the rules that Footballer and his mates invented differ enough (and no one wants to emulate those boorish humans) that they want a new name. He's decided to call it the Get the Ball in the Other Team's Goal by Mostly Kicking It Game, which the others have deemed somewhat lengthy but acceptable.
