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.

When Blazegleam's owner introduced him to the dragon who would be his mate, he could not believe his eyes.  He expected a dragon who was common, such as a green, purple, or water dragon, who would be more fitting for a common dragon such as himself.  When he realized that his intended mate for life was to be a rare and radiant silver dragon, he felt wholly out of place and inadequate.  Her initial reaction to him did not help with these feelings.  But as time went on, he became accustomed to her and more comfortable with the idea of being her mate, and they both became more familiar with each other's personalities.  Eventually this familiarity grew into friendship, then into love.  The silver dragon, Silvergleam, was the one who gave Blazegleam his name—to complement her own and to show that they belonged together.  He bears the name with pride.  Today they have a large and beautiful family which is growing all the time, and neither of them would dream of being with anyone else.
