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.

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.

Forked--Tail is not very popular among the dragons. Fights with her are avoided at all costs, due to the fact that the poison from her fangs could keep a full grown dragon in his cave for days at a time. She is kept from the nursery, too, unless she is given permission to infect an egg with her venom. "Yeah, I have that effect on people." she often says when dragons go running. Dragons who oppose her should be wary.
