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.

Akai Tsutanai is another of the clan's red female dragons. Unlike her clan mate Chishio Niiro, Akai Tsutanai does not exert herself to meet the high expectations her clan has for a red dragon. In fact she goes out of her way to disappoint them at every turn whenever possible. She even tries to disappoint them during battles, therefore she is always kept in the back ranks whenever they battle. The was Akai figures it is this way, Better not to exert yourself if it's only going to tire you out and make you sick, especially if you can't win any ways. And maybe she's right. Whatever the case, Akai is an underachiever and proud of it.
