Gilded Bloodscale Dragons often spend hours investigating every minute detail of caves, making sure their living spaces are arranged exactly how they like. They crave intellectual stimulation and get bored easily. As such, these dragons prefer to lure in their prey using their sharp minds rather than brute strength, often engaging in battles of wits between their two heads to determine how best to proceed. Seen as eccentric by other dragons, they are often shunned by all but their own kind.

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.

Varemon is one of the younger children of Daereon and Rhaenerys the Soft. He sometimes thinks the only purpose of his parents in life is to fill the world with as many Targaryen children as possible, regarding the sheer number of siblings he has. His mother Rhaenerys is kind, generous and loving, and different from most other as Targaryens she doesn't believe in the "pure" blood. In her home, all kinds of dragons are welcomed.

From her children, Naerys (second of her name) inherited most of her kind nature, and Varemon loves his sister for it. Unfortunately, Naerys is already married to Baelon, who is almost the exact opposite of her. Thus Varemon joined the guard of Ruler Aleyxs when he was really young. A lot of hard work and good fighting later, he is now the leader of Aelyx's force. He is very aggressive in battle, but can be reasonable as well—mostly, when he is with Naerys. His newest gained trait is leadership, and everyone is expecting great things from their young Commander.
