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.

Sala and Saya are the products of a bizarre, twisted family tree, and there are those who wonder if some of their more...eccentric quirks are a result of this.  Most notably, the two are have determined that they must always be "Opposite."  If Sala wants to go left, Saya will insist on going right.  If Saya wants to go for a nice flight,  Sala becomes determined that they should go swimming instead.  This as led to some rather interesting debacles, including Sala's most recent decision to become a strict vegetarian.  Saya, of course, now insists on a rigorous diet of fresh-killed meat. Despite all their differences, however, the sisters are actually quite fond of each other, and their disagreements are more cheerful bickering than actual arguments.  Woe betide the poor fool who slanders one head in front of the other; such a person is not likely to live to insult them again.
