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.

Az6zL is a master at deception. He hides behind a benign facade, leading others to believe he has their best interests at heart but in reality couldn't care less. What he actually wants is yet to be discovered, but those who know him best would venture a guess that Az6zL truly wishes the destruction of all mankind. Currently, he voluntarily resides in a grotto far underneath the part of the desert that meets the base of the Alpine mountains. Clan members occasionally venture the tunnels to seek his aid, mainly for fertility, to which he graciously provides. So long as he remains of use to the clan he is tolerated and for the most part is left to his own devices.
