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.

Count Vincent had hatched out of his egg, dead and unmoving, keeping still in his vulnerable state. But even young, he had been somber, quiet and stoic. While he had no clue as to where he was from, something from within always felt royal. Of his clan-brothers in the bachelor coven, he holds himself with the most pride and the most calm. He keep the others in check if they get too rowdy, or too dangerous, and he has the skill to do so. Because of his prowess he was placed in charge of guarding the red stock, and it has not escaped him the way the reds treat him; like some kind of royalty. He does not let this phase him, and he performs his duty as their guard and clan killjoy. He seems aloof and distant from all his clan-brothers except but the most vicious acts of cruelty, which he swiftly punishes, and harshly. Once a clan-brother has learned his lesson, he can be counted to stay in his place for a while, and Vincent returns to sit by his wards and watch the cave.
