Bleeding Moon Dragons are mostly nocturnal creatures. When outside in the sun, the small red spatters on their back grow and spread, making the dragons appear to “bleed.” It is said that the darker the shade of red, the more aggressive the dragon. Their tail barbs contain a powerful neuro-toxin which they use to subdue their prey. They are solitary creatures except when mating, preferring to dwell in the caves in mountains or other high places. Their large wingspan makes them fast flyers as well as fast runners, but they prefer to glide instead. Males are very competitive and will try almost everything to impress females, who will choose their mates based on speed and performance. Juveniles tend to form bachelor groups once fledged.

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.

Bleeding Moon hates her name. She wishes she could change it, but then so many other dragons would get confused, and Valley Breeze would have to change her name ceremoniously, since she already has children. She also doesn't want to affect her children, as then their names and their children's names would have to be changed. She doesn't want to cause trouble for them just because she doesn't like the name she was given. When she was teased as a hatchling (she grew up in another group), they gave her the name "Forever". After she came to the Dahmed Clan, she realized she actually liked the name and uses it as a nickname. She is a sweet, kind dragon to others, and tries to put them before herself. But due to her nature, she isn't very good in social situations and tends to spend a lot of her time alone. And even then, she is thinking about others and often is either hunting or patrolling the camp. Unless she's sleeping.
