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.

Amyethyst is a dragon of great beauty. She is known as a Rainbow Mother -a title which denotes a special affinity for creative nurturing- and has, since she was a hatchling, always been one to care for the young, the sick and the weak. She has a quiet dignity about her, and enjoys music, especially the pan pipes and the harp. Amyethyst collects sea shells, and has a stunning collection from around the world.
