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.

Part of a project that aims to reveal the secrets of dragon behavior, Nenderia has worn a bright red tag on his lower left ankle for three years now. He is not bothered by this, even if it raises questions from others of his own kind. Nenderia's largest contribution to this project so far is allowing more insight into the movement of male Purple Dragons, a mystery that has existed ever since male Purple Dragons were discovered. His position on his small fame among dragon biologists is neutral.
