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.

Svenja Opal is a most fascinating dragon. She is half sister of Jesper Farquhar. They share the gentle soul of their pink mother, who only dwelled a short time in this cave. But she also is the daughter of the untouchable Whiptail "Zenon Qing".

At times there seem to be two spirits in her—one gentle and loving, one tough and solitary.

That is probably why she often behaves unpredictably, like there's two switching personalities in her. Hopefully one day she can settle to one aspect of her heart.
