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.

Malena is a bit of a confusing dragon. There are times when she is very kind and sweet, then there are times when... well, during those times, let's just say that you definately don't want to bother her. These sudden mood swings can happen at rather random times, but through a strong connection with her closest friends, they are able to calm her down rather easily, except for when she has been brought into a rage, then they must physically restrain her before they can calm her. Such a rage is rare for her.
