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.

Teirco Kheirco, or Double Trouble, is the mischievous type. She always attempts to prank her clanmates, and many times fails. Through failing, she learns how to be more successful in her endeavors. Being a very intelligent individual, but socially awkward, she learns about and bonds with her peers with her pranks. Some dragons, like Blackening Flames, don't tolerate her as well as nicer dragons like Shimmering Eggplant. Most of the females are fond of her, and a few of the males are accepting of her. Once Fight and Flight was brought in as an egg, she knew they were fated. Spending all of her time in the nursery, she didn't remember to eat even when another dragon brought her food. The only way to drag her attention away from the tiny hatchling was to literally slap her with the meat. Once he grew up, they began to bond even more, and eventually became mates.
