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.

Ormhaexan, "the serpent witch", is completely unaware of the name humans have given her. A couple of farmers spotted her from a distance when she was asleep and only her tail twitched in her dream, so they thought she was some kind of winged witch with a snake attached to her backside. They didn't dare to come closer because they had heard that this kind of creature can turn you into a woman. When their wives offered to go and have a look, the dragon had already flown away; and so, in order to find out Ormhaexan's true nature, you'd have to ask one of the dragons in her cave (if you find one who's rude enough to talk about her behind her back).
