Split Dragons use their sharp teeth and wings to hunt large animals and rarely eat plants. They are intelligent dragons who enjoy mental challenges, preferably alone; Split Dragons are normally solitary except during mating season. When mating, many dragons come together in a group to raise their eggs and hatchlings. These groups tend to be very noisy—reminiscent of a thunderstorm—and last only until the hatchlings are capable of surviving on their own.

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.

Two-headed dragons are unique enough to deserve a separate classification from ordinary dragons. They have two necks, two brains, two mouths, but one stomach and one main body. The two heads usually work together, but there are times when they will fight each other, snapping back and forth. Their unique anatomy prevents them from breeding with single-headed dragons.

Delijla is one of the newest members of the Dragon Horde Clan. The clan adopted her when her first clan, that of her father and grandfather, apparently abandoned her. Unbeknownst to everyone else, Delijla was the one to first betray her original home to an enemy who sought revenge against its leader because of an old quarrel. Banished for her devious attempt at seizing power, she found the Dragon Horde and disguised her evil act as a cruel misfortune.

Now she does not seem to be plotting and doesn't arouse suspicion, but it is difficult to say if she can be trusted.
