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.

Doth's parents were two newfound lovers, and when they first had an egg, they were ecstatic. However, it was bitten by a vampire shortly after. Devastated, Doth's parents tried to raise their child normally, but this was a difficult task due to the vampire's deadly nature. They were afraid Doth would never learn love, and would remain a killer her entire life. Upon entering adulthood, however, Doth successfully killed a beast much stronger than herself--and gave it to her parents as a gift. While Doth is most certainly the most unique child any dragon in the cave's had, she still is capable of experiencing love and gratefulness.
