Valentine eggs are only seen once a year. Adults’ mating seasons are very short, usually spanning a few weeks in the mid-to-late winter. These dragons were once reputed to be omens of good luck in love.

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.

Love's Mischievous Fire is a fascinating, complex dragon, seeming to possess a mixture of a maternal nature and a militant outlook on life. This conflicting nature often results in some whiplash-inducing behaviors, quickly switching from sweet and loving to down-to-business and demanding. The clan has learned to simply go with it, especially considering she is one of the dragons who actually helps get things done. Oddly enough, she is closer to the vampire dragons than to the other "merrier" dragons, and is often willing to go head to head with one of the Christmases when they choose to taunt and tease her friends. Another close friend of hers is Slanderer, who manages Love's Mischievous Fire's mood swings extraordinarily well.
