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.

Zanovick is a very unpredictable dragon. Most of times he isn't hostile to people. Some say this breed of dragons has a magic ability that allows them to sense what other creature is thinking therefor being able to predict what someone will do. The two heads usually never fight but they are very different and the only thing they have in common is their jealousy. One head hates when the other is more spoiled and if that happens that head will probably want to fly or run away while the other wants to stay. This ends up in a fight that doesn't last for longer than two or three minutes. The left head is much more active and is always looking for food or wanting to play with other dragons while the right head is more lazy and usually likes to roam around inside the cave or sleep instead of going outside.
