Heartseeker Dragons are very social creatures that emanate a sweet chocolatey scent. Their captivating perfume easily attracts adult dragons that don’t yet have a mate. Heartseekers use their keen sense of smell to detect solitary dragons and potential mates in the area. By rubbing their fins against objects such as trees and rocks, they leave a scent trail for the other dragons to follow to meet each other. Although these dragons are seen year-round, the scent of a Heartseeker becomes particularly potent during the middle of winter. During this time, a single Heartseeker may play matchmaker to dozens of dragons, but he will also choose a special mate of his 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.

This Heartseeker's wide, staring gaze and hoarse whisper of a voice have earned him a reputation more akin to those of dragons associated with Hallow's Eve than with the season his kind would normally represent. It is rumored his goodwill and cheery nature left him on account of a broken heart, and some even go so far as to imply that it was he who killed his love in the first place! However, as fun as such romantic tall-tales may be, the more likely explanation for the Baron's nature is genetically based. His mother was a Shadow Walker, after all.
