Description:
Pyrallis are tiny draconic creatures
that are said to flit around the copper smelting forges of Cyprus. They have insect sized bronze
bodies, four legs, delicate golden wings and a dragon's head. They are so dependant on the fire
that if they leave it they die instantly.
Alternative names are pyragones and pyrausta.
