It was previously believed that purple dragons were exclusively female, but this is not the case. Recent environmental shifts have revealed the existence of both genders of this breed. Female behavior is well known; they are primarily herbivores but will eat meat during mating season. On the other hand, very little is known about the behavior and habits of male purple dragons.

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.

DarkViolet is a lovely Purple Dragon. She is sweet and nice, always helping others. She is also a good listener and a trustworthy friend. DarkViolet is very popular, and has tons of friends who love her. She would have a perfect life if it weren't for the fact she has a terminal illness. Her immune system is failing, and she gets sick all of the time. And she gets really sick, even a cold can knock her down for weeks. The healers in her cave do what they can, but it is unlikely DarkViolet will live to see the next century.
