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.

Being pampered and catered to has turned Eclipse into a bit of a brat, often losing her temper when things don't go as she wants. As an egg, she was adopted by the cave mother, known as Redd or Lisa, and brought back to the cave. The other dragons catered to her, having many people visit her.

In almost no time, she was a hatchling. Everything the dragons did was for her, and every wail she let out was soothed by a sweet lullaby.

Of course, having two heads makes it difficult for her. Often times, although they share a brain, the two heads will go head to head, snapping at each others throats. Each has to be catered to, otherwise silence will turn into a chorus of agonizingly loud screeches and roars, until the two get what they want.
