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.

Ambrosine was officially named that by her transformer (she was once a Sunsong), but some dragons call her different names. She has many, such as, Semira, Deyanira, Eris, Azar, Rajani, Lilith, and Senka. Each one means something dark. Ambrosine means 'immortal', though she is not. She is evil, ruthless, and wicked. She has no heart and only wishes to trap the world in shadows and blood. Ambrosine has been experimenting with captured eggs during the day, trying desperately to turn one into a Zombie egg. Having heard that only magic can morph it, she uses witchcraft instead.

She plans to name this hatchling Akuji, meaning dead, yet living.
