It was previously believed that purple dragons were exclusively female, but this is not the case. Recent environmental shifts have revealed the existence of both genders of this breed. Female behavior is well known; they are primarily herbivores but will eat meat during mating season. On the other hand, very little is known about the behavior and habits of male purple dragons.

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.

In Islamic mythology, Hafaza were angels who protected people from the Djinn, as well as kept a register of one's actions, one on the right for the good deeds, and one on the left for the evil deeds. Because of her natural protective nature, this female Purple Dragon was so named. At times, she can be quite similar to a good angel, while at others, her playful side takes over and she resembles the wicked angel. She has one offspring, Bress, with the male Water Dragon, Hapi.
