Baikala Dragons are mysterious beasts that inhabit the lesser-known depths of deep lakes and oceans. These exceptional swimmers actively hunt whatever live prey has the misfortune to draw near, and have even been known to breach in order to snag low-flying prey directly out of the air. Though it is unknown exactly how intelligent Baikala are, they are exceptional strategists and problem solvers. Their two heads seem to think and behave as one.

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.

Sobek lives in a relatively small, but very deep, lake fed by several rivers. He likes to leave his lake and swim upriver, perhaps for lack of room or out of curiosity. The villagers living along those rivers both fear and revere him, for he is very successful at chasing anything from his territory that's bigger than him. The danger he poses is nothing compared to what could happen, were it not for Sobek keeping the other monsters at bay.

It is also believed that he has healing powers, and sick people often leave food and gifts for him in the hope of being healed. Sobek greatly enjoys finding these gifts; whether he really has healing powers is unknown. He does have a soft spot for humans, at least he never actively hunts them for food. His favourite prey is cow.
