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.

Winter's Bloody Eclipse had his egg sacrificed to a vampire at the darkest hour of the year - the winter solstice eclipse. This dark ritual poisoned the egg with a vampiric venom stronger than ever recorded in the area. The resulting vampire hatched strong, fierce, and with a vibrant dark heart. His eyes are said to burn with a black flame. Keeping this dragon under control is an effort, for he is a powerful fighter, eager for conflict and chaos.
