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.

Hornormous had parents who were part of the dragon cave, but gave her up knowing she would be given a nice new owner. Hornormous grew up being around many magic dragons and only one human, all of whom cared for her. However, Hornormous always wanted something more, so she ran away. Once she was out of the cave she went to the nearest village, which was near the cave, was used to dragons, and was very welcoming. Hornormous then went on to a village that was not as close as the first. In the new village, they had not seen a dragon in thousands of years and were panicked by her fierce looks. They called upon a traveling knight, who would have slain Hornormous, if she had not flown back to the cave before the knight had the chance. Hornormous returned, thinking she would never truly be happy, instead, she was surprised to find a very warm welcome and new dragons! Now she happily tells the hatchlings stories of the outside world when asked.
