Among the most intelligent of dragons, Razorcrest Wyverns often opt to use their brains over their brawn, hunting prey in elaborate ways and avoiding confrontation through clever diversions. Such efforts are helped by their strong affiliation with the air element; highly magical, Razorcrests can manipulate the wind to distract, disorient, and disarm their opponents. Their wit pervades every aspect of their personalities, which are rather quirky and vary wildly between individuals. However, they are generally amicable toward those who seek knowledge, as they value that above all else.

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.

Tassikeron—"Tass" for short—is the primary recruiter for Prazal's Academy for Inconvenient Talents and Odd Specialties. Cheerful and self-deprecating (at least by razorcrest standards), he describes himself as merely "hired muscle"—nothing special at all. He usually has no trouble convincing dragons to go back with him, as persuasiveness is one of his strengths. The hard part is getting everyone back to the school in one piece. For truly difficult cases, he has a spell that allows him to summon aid (and a quick transport home) from the Goldenmage Assembly.
