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.

"Who do you think you are, to come here," This dragon will ask of all who are unfortunate enough to wander into the shadowy bogs that he calls home. "Maybe you think you're brave. Maybe you think you're clever. But, foolish creature, there is nothing that can be proven by walking right into the jaws of death." Of course, his victims rarely have any time to answer before he strikes, murdering them and making a meal out of their bloody remains. As a result of this savagery, nearly every living creature around the area fears him, and the shadowy bogs have become devoid of all life except the monster that lurks within.

Unbelievably enough, it is said that he was once kind, or at least civilized. But that was before he was betrayed—a betrayal that very nearly killed him, and even to this day is the source of the malevolent, cruel fire that burns within his heart.
