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.

Eleus and Zelus get along very well for two dragons stuck together. While Zelus is often an instigator and rabble-rouser, Eleus always manages to bail him out and will never fail to defend his brother. Vayden often overlooks their clumsier nature because they amuse her and thus, she lets them stay so long as they don't step on any eggs. The comedic duo's attention was soon captured by the graceful,saucy Kronus twins, Arete and Arae. Eleus and Zelus, while vastly different, share a love of fruit and for some odd reason, frogs.
