Magma Dragons are capable of withstanding the intense temperatures of their element. They live in volcanic regions, their bodies coated in the red hot magma which clings to their scales. They must leave the lava fields in order to hunt, although they require surprisingly little food to sustain their lumbering mass.

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.

Extra Small Leg spends a lot of her time with Lagie's healing dragons. "This leg is shorter than the others. I'm sure of it!" is her main complaint, but she also says she suffers from assorted aches and pains along with fuzzy eyesight and diminished hearing. The healing dragons all agree that there is nothing wrong with Extra Small Leg physically, not even with that supposedly shorter leg, but they're certain that something is wrong mentally. Since Extra Small Leg refuses to see anyone else, the healing dragons resort to prescribing placebos and hoping for the best.
