Vampire Dragons are members of the undead. They sustain themselves by drinking the blood of others. It is said that they are only “alive” at night, and seem dead or asleep during the day, as they cannot endure sunlight for long periods of time. Vampire Dragons can only reproduce by changing the eggs of other dragons, puncturing the shell with their fangs and injecting venom that kills the baby inside.

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.

Some say Weave must have been left to sleep under a Daydream dragon's roost for too long when she was young. Indeed, Weave seems to be asleep more often than awake, and spending most of her time day dreaming when she is. She believes in fate, fortunes, luck, and all things occult. Other, more practical dragons think that she's a bit loony; but Weave doesn't mind—saying everything is how it naturally should be.
