Vampire Dragons are members of the undead. They sustain themselves by drinking the blood of others. It is said that they are only “alive” at night, and seem dead or asleep during the day, as they cannot endure sunlight for long periods of time. Vampire Dragons can only reproduce by changing the eggs of other dragons, puncturing the shell with their fangs and injecting venom that kills the baby inside.

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.

This dragon is the bane of anyone with a full head of hair, and more than one nervous woman carries a bag of candy on them at all times as a means to stave him off. For he is fond of popping up on unwary peasants and demanding they either present him with treats or suffer the loss of their hair to his capable claws. While this behavior is frustrating and humiliating for all the humans concerned, they're still grateful that he's simply an obnoxious vampire dragon as opposed to a bloodthirsty one.
