Spitfires are a desert breed of dragon. Their dull brown bodies contrast with their brilliant turquoise markings, and they only blaze brighter when these dragons fight. Spitfires are notorious for their territorial natures, and the wing-edges of most are ripped and tattered before their first year is out. Spitfires are also noteworthy for their brilliant blue fire, which is used not for hunting or fighting, but rather for making glass caves from the sand, in which the dragons can soak up the sun.

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.

When one is a member of a particularly aggressive breed, they always need to be on the lookout for ways to make themself a better fighter than everyone else. This dragon has more or less accomplished that. He relies on a variety of vicious techniques to get his point across--turning sand to glass just to shatter it and sweep it into opponents' faces or breaking spitfire taboo by attacking others directly with his jet-hot flame. His brutality has earned him the largest territory of all the spitfires in his particular region of the world, but he's still on the method for new fighting techniques, knowing his overthrow could be just one young upstart away.
