Baikala Dragons are mysterious beasts that inhabit the lesser-known depths of deep lakes and oceans. These exceptional swimmers actively hunt whatever live prey has the misfortune to draw near, and have even been known to breach in order to snag low-flying prey directly out of the air. Though it is unknown exactly how intelligent Baikala are, they are exceptional strategists and problem solvers. Their two heads seem to think and behave as one.

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.

Great Gundula is the name whispered among humans living near a large lake in the middle of one of the larger forests on Galsreim. It lies right on the border between two kingdoms, but unlike other borders, this one is never disputed or fought about, because no one on either side would be foolish enough to make a noise or otherwise disturb the true queen of the area, the large two-headed dragon in the lake. Gundula herself isn't shy at all, so it is quite easy (and not that dangrous, if you keep your distance) to get a glimpse of her from afar, on her hunting trips to the surface or during mating season, when she comes closer to the shore than usual. But the stories floating around about her, like the one where she caused a tidal wave just to test her strength, or the one where she spoke in human language to a knight the night before a decisive battle, are most likely complete fabrications.
