Pink Dragons are primarily herbivores and only eat meat during the mating season, when mates will exchange kills. When it is not breeding season, pink dragons spend most of their time incubating eggs and caring for their clan’s young. Due to their feminine color, it was traditionally thought that pink dragons were a strictly female breed, but this is not true.

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.

"I just do not understand why they don't like me." Asylia has spoken those words almost every day for her entire life since the day she decided she wanted to tend to the cave's nursery. As a hatchling, she was cared for and loved in the nursery. She couldn't understand how the other hatchlings wanted to leave and venture off. The nursery became her home inside a home, and Asylia decided she never wanted to leave it. She was taught to care for the eggs, to keep them warm, and to love them as their mother might have loved them. She did her job well, her very first egg-sitting produced a very healthy hatchling. However, this hatchling wanted nothing to do with Asylia after it came out of the egg. For some strange reason, none of them ever took a liking to her. As soon as they hatched they were no longer part of her life. It took her a long time to accept this, but she had to. The cave depends on her to incubate all the eggs, even if it meant sadness every time an egg hatches.
