Pumpkin Dragons are a very small breed, named after their affinity for pumpkins. They are always found living inside hollowed-out pumpkins, and are only seen during the harvest season. Young children often hollow out and decorate their pumpkins in the hope that a Pumpkin Dragon will make it his or her home.

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.

With the (mistaken) idea that due to their small size, the Pumpkin dragons would like to sleep together in a pile like dogs, raindear carefully grew a giant pumpkin for them. To please raindear, they use the giant pumpkin when she visits the Rainbow Cavern, but when she leaves, they breathe a collective sigh of relief, and return to their own sleeping pumpkins.

Sweetie Pie faithfully performs her gardening and guarding duties in the garden, and spends any free time she has developing pumpkin pie recipes. She has created several dozen recipes, all of which are very popular in the cave, but she still seeks her "perfect" creation.
