Common Pygmies are sweet in temperament and palate. They spend a fair amount of time foraging for and scavenging food but have a particular fondness for sweet tasting treats, such as honey. When pickings are slim, they can hunt songbirds and small mammals. Common Pygmies stay in large groups, migrating alongside their food supply. Although capable of the same basic vocal sounds of most other dragons, Common Pygmies prefer to communicate through body language. It is perhaps no surprise, then, that Common Pygmy hatchlings are rather affectionate.

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.

Pygmy dragons are the smallest category of dragons, being on the same scale as domesticated animals. They are often found around concentrated populations of dragons, relying on their larger brethren to ward away potential predators and leave scraps. As such, the majority of a pygmy’s diet is scavenged. Due to their tiny size, pygmies do not breed with larger varieties of dragons.

A lot of pygmies are known to find a place for themselves someplace and quietly scavenge, taking care not to make enemies with the large dragons. It is thought that this one is in Sierra Valley for the same reasons, but he's never said anything about where he came from and why he's there. Typically, newcomers to Sierra-V readily state who they are, so this fella has aroused suspicion by remaining mum and deflecting inquiries about him. If he has any motives, they are unknown, and his bright-eyed mug gives nothing away. He's obedient and likes to help around the network with tasks suited for a tiny dragon, so ruler Legation lets him stick around, but knowing her, she probably has someone keeping watch. Some wary, maybe paranoid dragons in the government and law enforcement think he has some powerful allies, so they're prepared for some kind of incursion that may happen at any time.
