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.

The feeling of warmth brought her joy she did not know, just like how she could not explain the shimmering autumn leaves' flight. It seemed like simple and common knowledge, but she found it to be the most difficult to even think of. She wondered what joy even was; she had experienced very little, and of that speck of experience, nothing was quite like that feeling. Her frigid body could not feel the warmth like the sun on one's back, but rather a feeling of neutrality; normalcy, in a sense. It made her feel like she could talk once more, and the next time, surely, she would say it aloud; the word "joy."
