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.

Red Wing never met her parents, making it hard for her to know her true dragon breed. She will never forget the cold frozen feeling of venom going through her veins as an embryo. When she was a regular dragon in the egg, she dreamed of being a mother, but for a while, she couldn't be. Now she is considered the mother of almost all dragons on this scroll because of Brownie bringing her random eggs that she can raise and hatch as her own.
