Split Dragons use their sharp teeth and wings to hunt large animals and rarely eat plants. They are intelligent dragons who enjoy mental challenges, preferably alone; Split Dragons are normally solitary except during mating season. When mating, many dragons come together in a group to raise their eggs and hatchlings. These groups tend to be very noisy—reminiscent of a thunderstorm—and last only until the hatchlings are capable of surviving on their 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.

Two-headed dragons are unique enough to deserve a separate classification from ordinary dragons. They have two necks, two brains, two mouths, but one stomach and one main body. The two heads usually work together, but there are times when they will fight each other, snapping back and forth. Their unique anatomy prevents them from breeding with single-headed dragons.

Like many dragons of their breed, Ghalt and Reskit are complete opposites.  Ghalt is the intelligent one.  He has an immense eye for detail, and knows approximately 2,760 different human words and commands.  He enjoys the works of Shakespeare and well known artists of the time period.  Reskit, however, is a ruthless, disobedient rebel.  He will not listen to anything anyone says, including his brother, if he does not like what they are saying.  There have been numerous occasions where Reskit has lashed out at little human children and dragon hatchlings alike, and the leader of the clan, Rain-Glider, even warns everyone around to be aware of Reskit's behavior.  Luckily, Ghalt is mostly able to hold his brother back, since each of them have control of different sides of the body they share.
