Red Dragons are similar to typical story book dragons. They shoot flames, can fly, etc. However, they aren’t evil creatures as depicted in myths and won’t go around raiding castles, killing knights, or kidnapping princesses. They live in a variety of habitats, from forests to coastlines to abandoned castles, usually in warm climates, and eat whatever living creatures they can find.

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.

Reddfyre has quite a legacy to live up to. Her mother is Tongue of Fire, the wise, brave Red, and her father is the peaceful, but ferocious, warrior Desert Emperor. She is very close to Winterwyte, who has known Tongue of Fire for a while. Reddfyre hasn't quite learned to control her fire breathing, and has annoyed Dappling Leaves multiple times by setting his den on fire.
