It was previously believed that purple dragons were exclusively female, but this is not the case. Recent environmental shifts have revealed the existence of both genders of this breed. Female behavior is well known; they are primarily herbivores but will eat meat during mating season. On the other hand, very little is known about the behavior and habits of male purple dragons.

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.

Gemmadette is only a little less beautiful than Gwynissa, and to less judical eyes, probably equally so. She is gentle, calm and placid, the helpful one of the Janedragons. Scholar HomEd attempted to mate with her, but no children came from it. She is the one little hatchlings go to when wanting a bedtime story, the nurse and watcher of eggs, and a friend to those who need it.
