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.

Though left-head Troubles and right-head Problems are both fully functional, heavy inbreeding in their family line prevent them from being studded. Both heads constantly bicker with one another and never seem to settle down except for when exhaustion takes over them. They are a danger to other dragons as well due to their volatile personality. They have their own separate pen in the cave and are not to leave unless well-guarded. Even then, extreme caution is exercised when handling. However, it seems as if this dragon is unhappy because of it's isolation. The owner of the cave visits them very often to combat this sadness they express, which does help to a certain point. The only true fix would be to rid one head from the other, resulting in death, and this is out of the question.
