Pink Dragons are primarily herbivores and only eat meat during the mating season, when mates will exchange kills. When it is not breeding season, pink dragons spend most of their time incubating eggs and caring for their clan’s young. Due to their feminine color, it was traditionally thought that pink dragons were a strictly female breed, but this is not true.

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.

Aridon never meant to fall in love with Pyka. At first it was Kanaye's doing, forcing the two together only to get children. Soon Aridon found himself seeking out Pyka's company, laughing at her jokes and, unknowingly, falling for her. Now the damage is done, he is head over tails in love with her. He wishes he could have known their children, sure they would have gotten all of her wonderful traits and none of his bad ones. He isn't sure how she could ever love him back, being nowhere as perfect as she, but she says she does and she would never lie to him.
