It was previously believed that purple dragons were exclusively female, but this is not the case. Recent environmental shifts have revealed the existence of both genders of this breed. Female behavior is well known; they are primarily herbivores but will eat meat during mating season. On the other hand, very little is known about the behavior and habits of male purple dragons.

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.

This creature was the center of a great scuffle for quite a large portion of the year, one that represented a heated debate between science and tradition. Dragons of her hue are regarded as lucky amongst the native people of her land, and she was given all the respect and offerings that correlated. Biologists, however, were keenly interested in testing her blood to see if she was a purebred. While she originally left the scuffling up to the humans, she got exasperated with the constant noise and bickering after a few months, emerged from her waterfall shrine and, to the astonishment of all, thrust herself into the biologist's camp to have the stupid blood tests run. The results proved that she was indeed a pure mix of her species, and was thus one of the earliest indicators that violet males, while elusive, do exist.
