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.

FREE CANDY is a highly disturbing dragon. He likes to go around suspiciously offering dragons free candy if they come into his cave. It's suspected that there is candy in his cave, as a vampire followed him in one day and came out a great deal fatter.

Oddly enough, since then FREE CANDY hasn't been seen around as much, and when he is, he's always very pale and sickly looking. It must be a result of eating all that candy.
