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.

Leinu is very curious and loves to explore the lands of Jalysia, where she will often pick up abandoned eggs she finds. She has a strong need to take care of eggs, as she is the only survivor of the first six original eggs. She also has the closest relationship to humans and often will make friends with wandering adventurers and warriors. Leinu, being the oldest, watches over the new eggs and hatchlings, treating them as her own.
