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.

Leetle Nibbles was abandoned by her old clan after she was transformed into a vampire. She was discovered still in her egg by the pygmy sub-clan and adopted and raised as one of their own.

Because of this Nibbles believes that she herself is a pygmy dragon, putting her large size down to hormones. Her closest friend is Shantotto, whom can sometimes be found riding between Nibbles' horns.
