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.

Mala fide, bona fide's obscurer opposite, means "in bad faith". When he saw as a hatchling what he could achieve by lying and conning, he quickly became good at it to cheat dragons of their resources. His favorite way to go about it is by keeping his targets clueless to the deceit for as long as possible. Alongside that, he is also very good at finding hiding spots, so no one can find him to enact revenge during the day.
