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.

Comet was once a happy and adventurous dragon. She loved to fly great distances over the ocean that surrounded her island home. She once stumbled upon a small island where it was always autumn. There she met a pumpkin dragon and they fell in love. Comet left her island to met him everyday and one day, they had an egg. She brought the little egg back home so it could be raised with her loving family, but she did not expect what happened next. Her older brother, Quasar, tried to destroy the egg. She gave it to her other brother, Asteroid, so he could take it somewhere safe. Quasar broke her wing and she could never fly again because of it. They also had an egg of their own that night, but Quasar took it away from her before it hatched. Comet is now not allowed to leave the cave and has still never met either of her children. She longs to see the lover she lost and her son and daughter.
