Vampire dragons are members of the undead. They sustain themselves by drinking the blood of others. It is said that they are only "alive" at night, and seem dead or asleep during the day, as they cannot endure sunlight for long periods of time. Vampire dragons can only reproduce by changing the eggs of other dragons, puncturing the shell with their fangs and injecting venom that kills the baby inside.

Midnight Rise, Night as his friends call him, came from a family of Rock Dragons, and Guardian Dragons. One night as a young child, he wandered from his family. That very night an avalanche fell right on top of him. Nearly dead, a vampire dragon bit him. He awoke around midnight after the near fatal crush and being bitten, his memory completely gone. Because he rose at midnight, he called himself midnight rise. He loves the vampire dragon that saved him like he loved his parents.
