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.

When Midnight was still a tiny hatchling, someone cursed him. None know who, but they do know that that dragon told him "A heart that no longer beats cannot be broken." Midnight has proven that wrong time and time again, for it seems that the curse made all who he loved die painful deaths. Therefore it seems he has stopped loving at all and he appears cruel and merciless. The few that knew him before the curse try their best to spread the word about what made him seem without a sense of empathy. It is all in vain however, since none believe them. Despite his manner and deposition, he is respected as an Elder of this cave.
