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.

Like many fire dragons, Inverse the Red is fascinated with and strives for power. Unlike many fire dragons, she is most compelled by mystical and spiritual power rather than physical might, and pursues her interests accordingly. She is not a natural wizard in the same way as some other dragons, but her unyielding will and raw tenacity have won her potent magical ability, at least compared to other fire dragons. She primarily uses this to acquire yet more mystic lore and ability, spending most of her time in her cavernous, volcanic lair. This lair is her sanctuary and citadel, however, and she does not tolerate intrusion. Only her coven-sisters, Blood Knowing and Pyroclastia, and her Yulebuck mate are permitted without challenge. She returns to the Breedery regularly, though, to visit her mate, Joyful Dawnlight. The two visit together at least once each year, when the winter-spirit dragons are in season, and sometimes at other times, to produce new young Red dragons.
