Hellhorse Dragons are foul-tempered, spirited creatures with tempestuous and violent dispositions. Torrents of scorching flames erupt from their bodies and can easily set their surroundings ablaze. Highly aggressive and territorial toward other dragon species, Hellhorses will tolerate others as long as they believe the association to be beneficial. Such alliances are tenuous in nature and frequently short-lived, as the slightest disagreement can easily escalate into a full-out brawl.

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.

Demigod of Hellfire lives in the savanna to the northeast of the Voiceless Desert and uses his fire for show to make himself seem more powerful than he really is. He honestly believes that his father is a god, and therefore that he is a demigod, descended ultimately from the primal spirit of fire. He demands that he be worshiped and razes the property of those who will not respect him. In truth he is no more powerful than any other hellfire, but he has honed his magic to pull off brief shows. Once his display of terror is over, he returns to his weyr and rests under the watchful eye of his mate, Pandora's Bosx.
