Tsunami Wyverns are gigantic dragons that live near the ocean. These wyverns can create deadly tsunamis by vigorously flapping their wings directly above the water. They create these waves to catch the eye of potential mates or as a form of self defense, as they are hunted for their beautiful skin. A Tsunami Wyvern’s wings are also helpful in gliding over the ocean without expending much energy. Their colors make it easy for them to blend in with the ocean water, which can be useful while stalking prey. Using their rudder-like tails and webbed feet to dive deep into the water, they can easily catch and eat their fill of big fish. Tsunami Wyverns can be found mostly near island chains.

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.

Chwistrel was found abandoned by the high tide one morning, and was taken into the clan as a mate for Windswept. Finding Windswept annoying and cocky, Chwistrel spent her hatchling years alone, mourning her freedom to choose a mate, and the betrothal weighed heavily on her mind. When she gendered, and first met Windswept, her hatred grew, as his confident and arrogant attitude contrasted to her gentle and careful nature. Upon ascending to adulthood, Chwistrel found that she was unable to tell the cave she had no wish to partner Windswept, and ran away to the shore where she was found. Looking out over the peacock blue sea, she watched the tides rise and fall, how the sea could not control its fate, but simply followed the guidance of the moon. Taking heart from that, she returned to the cave, and partnered Windswept, although her heart held many regrets, and still does to this day.
