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.

Lahpiz (left) is an adventurous half-a-dragon who loves to explore the volcanoes and collect rocks and minerals. However, Luhzul (right) is very vain and will sit by a clear pond and stare at her reflection until she decides she needs a "lesser dragon" to hunt for her. Most of the time, other dragons have to decide what they do. Obviously, this leads to Lahpiz's wanting to explore with this dragon, while Luhzul wants to sit by a pool and admire her reflection with this other dragon, which leads to more fights, which leads to another dragon choosing what they do which leads to... well, more arguing. Many times, Lahpiz and Luhzul wish they could be two separate dragons.
