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.

Vladimir is usually withdrawn and snappy. He, unlike his mate Lilith, has no problem killing dragons of other clans via draining them. He can be tender and gentle, but he prefers that it not be known and will deny ever acting tender and fatherly to any of Lilith's adopted children. (Not that he doesn't, but..) The only time he is really active is in battle, with hatchlings, or while pranking one of the others.
