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.

A languid creature who would much rather relax in her mansion instead of actively pursuing prey, this creature is harmless to any who simply pass her home by—but for those few daring fools who choose to peek inside, the choice is fatal. No sooner does prey enter her lair than her entire demeanor changes, turning her into an excited, vicious hunter who takes great delight in terrifying her catches before the inevitable kill. Doors and windows lock on their own, soft laughter echoing on the other side, driving the victim closer and closer to the middle of the nightmarish home, past increasingly gruesome rooms until they find the very center of the terror--and her, waiting.

Of course, perhaps this is nothing but a folk tale. But one can't know unless they enter for themselves.
