Split Dragons use their sharp teeth and wings to hunt large animals and rarely eat plants. They are intelligent dragons who enjoy mental challenges, preferably alone; Split Dragons are normally solitary except during mating season. When mating, many dragons come together in a group to raise their eggs and hatchlings. These groups tend to be very noisy—reminiscent of a thunderstorm—and last only until the hatchlings are capable of surviving on their own.

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.

Rytha and Losar (or Rytha'Losar) are two dragons in one body. However, both of the dragons hate each other, arguing and fighting about everything that can be argued about. Losar tends to start most of the arguments, and is reluctant to do anything that Rytha wants to do. Rytha is generally a pacifist, but will offend, blame and attack her other if there's a problem. If dragons could speak verbally, Rytha and Losar would be louder than the cries of the largest dragons in the cave, deafening many dragons with their non-stop arguments. The only time when Rytha and Losar sleep are when they are in complete darkness, so it wouldn't be possible to see each other under any circumstances.
