Pink Dragons are primarily herbivores and only eat meat during the mating season, when mates will exchange kills. When it is not breeding season, pink dragons spend most of their time incubating eggs and caring for their clan’s young. Due to their feminine color, it was traditionally thought that pink dragons were a strictly female breed, but this is not true.

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.

Alex Douglas has a strong affinity for aesthetics and beauty. He is an animal lover, and has a true appreciation for the beauties of nature. He is original and independent, and needs to have personal space. Alex Douglas values people and dragons who take the time to understand him, and who support him in pursuing his goals in his own, unique way. Dragons who don't know him well may see his unique way of life as a sign of carefree light-heartedness, but Alex actually takes life very seriously, constantly gathering specific information and shifting it through his value systems, in search for clarification and underlying meaning. To his dismay Alex Douglas is often mistaken for a female during mating seasons because of his pink scales and feminine behavior. Females that don't know Alex even mistake him for competition and are very wary towards him. The males that don't know him, on the other hand, are very charmed by his company—that he of course very much dislikes.
