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.

Godric's egg was picked up when he was repulsed by the clan that turned him. Taking pity on him, his new cave mistress took him back with her to the family of dragons she was raising.

Godric hatched and grew into a healthy and powerful vampire dragon. Although he is not as strong as the eldest vampire, Mamon, he is nevertheless quite formidable in his own right.

As one of the more approachable vampires, he has a number of friends with his clan, although his only human acquaintance is his cave mistress, whom he is very close to.
