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.

Demitara is misunderstood and doesn't stick with the other dragons often. She prefers to silently watch from the shadows. Always watching the eggs that Lance is guarding, because truly, all she wants is a dragon like her, one who will understand her. Lance doesn't understand her explanations or her pleas, so instead she watches and waits for Lance to fall asleep, just so she could get to an egg and have someone to understand her.
