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 gift to the clan from the mysterious entity known only as LBD, The Happy Bringer was named because his arrival brought happiness. To somebody, anyways, but nobody's quite sure who. Most dragons in the clan are terrified of vampires, and one went so far as to toss out the first egg he bit into the valley below.

  As far as his name is concerned, The Happy Bringer neither brings happiness nor seems to possess any himself. He spends most of his time skulking around and trying to steal loosely-guarded eggs to feast upon. Even amongst the other vampires, he's a social pariah, preferring to be left to his own devices.
