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.

"How to eliminate the undead-zombie stereotype"

"When one thinks of the undead the word zombie may come to mind. While it is true that zombies are indeed undead, they are not the ONLY undead. However, it is a common misconception and must be dealt with immediately upon exposure. Skipping formalities, if someone does have the nerve to call you a zombie, do feel free to gorge yourself- such ignorance should not be allowed to propagate further."

Entry by Grendella.

Grendella is an undead rights activist. She's quite infamous for her speech against vampiric vegetarianism. In person she is quiet and reserved, but the insightful observer will notice the bloodthirsty murderess underneath her careful facade. This underlying personality trait, although brought up often by her adversaries, is often ignored by the enthusiastic critics who cite her work as "Beautiful" and "Romantic". These same critics are often referred to by her opposition as "cowards".
