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.

When life is in your family room, it is easy to forget that death is in the foyer...

Duo Doubledash hatched and grew up in a happy and peaceful clan, where there were milk and cookies all the time, and never any cares in the world. She was also part of the clan Hatchling Scouts, which had fun excursions into the forests every other week. Unfortunately, it was on one of those hikes that Duo stumbled into the unkempt yard of Death.

He was exploring a cave far from her clan, when she fell into a pit, which was covered in moss, so no one could hear her screams.

She languished that hole for six days and nights, in which time she without food or water. On the last day of life, she was found by another hatchling named 2Apl, who vowed to stay with her until help came.

It came sooner than expected. It was found in the form of the Shadowgaurd magician, Heian, who rescued the two dragons, and brought them to the clan.

Duo is now one of the defenders of the clan, and a friend to all.
