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.

Kemsyth and Ramsyth are the names of a split dragon. A complete contrast to their brother(s), Tarkai and Markai, Kemsyth and Ramsyth get along like house on fire. Flying is something they both enjoy, and they often accompany Losara the guardian, on her rounds. They also like hanging around Fierozasion and his son Kierozesian, the Magi dragons, a rather dangerous hobby as the magic dragons often cause odd things to happen around them. Strangely enough, Kemsyth and Ramsyth seem immune to the Magi's powers. They also visit around PearlWave the Water dragon, often bringing her shiny objects for her 'treasury'. They also seem to have an idea of what she is doing when she glides around her treasures and makes small whirlpools, and help her out by swirling the water with their claws. All in all, Kemsyth and Ramsyth are well liked by everyone.
