Flamingo Wyverns are so named for their resemblance to the tropical birds with whom they often share territory. Their most striking feature is the bony black crest over their faces and snouts, larger in males, aiding both in digging up food and protection when fighting for mates. Males are duller in color than females due to their habit of wandering from nest to nest and picking from less algae-rich feeding grounds.

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.

Amaranth is vicious, and he can't quite see how hard he hurts the other dragons in battles. When he is scolded for his misbehavior, he cannot find the reason for it. He enjoys flying and catching fish in the lakes and rivers around his cave, one of his few hobbies that aren't malevolent. The reason for his maliciousness is because he was raised with a Hellfire Wyvern that has since learned his manners, but Amaranth cannot see how truly filled with malice he is. Named after a shade of pink, Amaranth usually catches shrimp or salmon in his lake and occasionally catches a snook. He is not looking for a mate and has not even considered it, but meanwhile his owner plans to find him one in secret to make him realize how malevolent he is.
