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.

A most odd, reclusive creature, this one is fascinated both by darkness and light; twilight never ceases to amaze her, with its mixture of deep shadow and beams of radiance, and she will often peek out at it from the safety of her seaside lair until it recedes. And, upon night's arrival, she will go out in search of similar mixtures of bright and black. The sight of bright stars against a velvet sky, of candles pouring light out into a deep night--all of this delights her, and she is so enraptured that she would likely be hunted and killed with ease if her mate didn't gently nudge her back into motion.
