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.

Melville Fuller is a male Red dragon. Like other dragons in his breed he too has the ability to produce fire. If someone managed to hurt his fragile ego, they better stay away.  Melville is known for his hot temper and often gets angry. Strangers are wary to be around him if he happens to be irritated. Even worse would be if someone somehow managed to hurt his feelings because he is a very proud dragon. Melville might get mad often, but he can't stay mad for long. He always speaks the truth—in every situation. He has few close friends although he recently began to court Emmeline. If he learned to say I'm sorry he might become easier to accept, perhaps sweet Emmeline will teach him how to become less rough.
