It was previously believed that purple dragons were exclusively female, but this is not the case. Recent environmental shifts have revealed the existence of both genders of this breed. Female behavior is well known; they are primarily herbivores but will eat meat during mating season. On the other hand, very little is known about the behavior and habits of male purple dragons.

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.

Iromeku's name means to brighten, to grow lively or excited, and it fits on all points.  When she is happy or excited -- and she frequently is -- her hide takes on a bright purple hue and she begins to glow softly.  With her gregarious and loving nature, she is not much for combat, fighting only if given no other choice.  If Iromeku had her way, all the dragons in the community would be her friends, and indeed she boasts probably the highest popularity due to her persistently optimistic attitude.  Some few find her over-the-top and saccharine, but those are typically the dragons who prefer isolation anyway.  She tries overtures of friendship towards any dragon she meets, but eventually gives up on the sullen ones in favor of more responsive targets.
