Bleeding Moon Dragons are mostly nocturnal creatures. When outside in the sun, the small red spatters on their back grow and spread, making the dragons appear to “bleed.” It is said that the darker the shade of red, the more aggressive the dragon. Their tail barbs contain a powerful neuro-toxin which they use to subdue their prey. They are solitary creatures except when mating, preferring to dwell in the caves in mountains or other high places. Their large wingspan makes them fast flyers as well as fast runners, but they prefer to glide instead. Males are very competitive and will try almost everything to impress females, who will choose their mates based on speed and performance. Juveniles tend to form bachelor groups once fledged.

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.

Fairy loves causing havoc on meticulously written records. Whenever the caretaker goes through the clan, making notes about breedings or recent additions to the ranks, Fairy lurks behind her and waits for the perfect opportunity to erase a letter here or replace a letter there. Her antics cause both frustration and amusement for the human, who doesn't seem to mind too much so Fairy continues with her jokes. But her games don't stop there: whenever the caretaker is visiting with a friend, Fairy does her best to snatch the friend's records and create errors. The object of her best terrorizing is a female human she sees around the territory often: a tall one with a strange accent who's always trailing plenty of scrolls to target.
