Split Dragons use their sharp teeth and wings to hunt large animals and rarely eat plants. They are intelligent dragons who enjoy mental challenges, preferably alone; Split Dragons are normally solitary except during mating season. When mating, many dragons come together in a group to raise their eggs and hatchlings. These groups tend to be very noisy—reminiscent of a thunderstorm—and last only until the hatchlings are capable of surviving on their own.

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.

Two-headed dragons are unique enough to deserve a separate classification from ordinary dragons. They have two necks, two brains, two mouths, but one stomach and one main body. The two heads usually work together, but there are times when they will fight each other, snapping back and forth. Their unique anatomy prevents them from breeding with single-headed dragons.

Ancient beyond belief Searinox and Sapharox have witnessed untold millennia. They have seen the rise of the Dagash Empire, its fall, and its replacement by the war torn kingdoms of the continent, Ulteas. Searinox is wrath and while Sapharox is mercy, where Searinox relishes conquest and strife, Sapharox thrives in harmony. While they are polar opposites of each other, Searinox and Sapharox complete each other and check each other's excesses. From deep within their lair they watch over the actions and efforts of both dragons and humanoids. While not sinister both of the brothers love to observe, calculate, and occasionally manipulate current events through various agents. At the moment their chief assistant with the surface is Soliara, whom they have raised from the egg as surrogate parents.
