Vampire Dragons are members of the undead. They sustain themselves by drinking the blood of others. It is said that they are only “alive” at night, and seem dead or asleep during the day, as they cannot endure sunlight for long periods of time. Vampire Dragons can only reproduce by changing the eggs of other dragons, puncturing the shell with their fangs and injecting venom that kills the baby inside.

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.

A male storm dragon by the name of Struck met a mysterious demise on Halloween of the year 2009. He was not a popular member of the clan, a violent and arrogant creature. To this day, nobody knows what imperiled him—only that he was never seen again.

  Is it no coincidence that a month and a half later, a she-vampire bearing his name wandered into clan lands as if she were one of them... Struck embodies every aspect of the presumably-deceased storm's personality—his condescension, his sadistic tendencies, his voracious nature. And yet it's clear the two are not the same being; if anything, it looks like the vampire took his identity after he vanished. Nobody knows who or what this creature is, but it seems obvious that the pair of dragons are somehow related... and by blood or murder, time has yet to show.
