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.

On the eastern-most tip of the Kallidragon Mountain, where the sun's morning light first announces its arrival each day, lies a complex of caves that comprises the home of the Duocordis clan within the Kallidragon pack. A small, well-knit unit of two-headed dragons, separated from the rest of their kind due to their special breeding habits and brought together all the more because of them. And in the heart of this small unit there could be no other than Kerr, the lonely male that was added to the Kallidragon pack only shortly after his mate Bella, but soon managed to establish the smaller Duocordis clan within the pack's ranks. Having known exile from his previous large family's hands, Kerr is often viewed as overly cautious and singled-minded in his role as the patron figure of his clan. However, his mate and clan-children know the truth. He is nothing less than a true clan leader and a fiercely loyal protector of his family and kind.
