Vermeil Dragons are a breed known to most for maintaining simple but meticulously clean nests and shelters that, should one be caught out in bad weather, the dragons will share even with humans. They are patient, and make excellent listeners due to their even temperament and curiosity. Their pleasant scent, similar to strawberries but with stronger floral notes, tends to make the stay comfortable. However, these dragons are also known for dispensing extremely blunt advice, particularly on romantic matters. Plenty of humans caught out in the rain or snow have left a Vermeil’s den with unsolicited advice suggesting they admit their feelings before the opportunity is lost forever. While they’re difficult to anger, a threatened Vermeil will generally use its tail to defend itself, smacking the target upside the head.

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.

Kakuho keeps his living cavern thoroughly tidy and organized, to the point where he has multiple guest caves set up, each with their own "theme". One cavern is for guests who are waiting out harsh weather and potentially need to dry their clothes and repair their gear. Another cavern is for guests who are traveling in a group with children or hatchlings, and need toys and such to keep the younger party members occupied.

Thanks to the donations of grateful friends and family who have stayed in his residence, Kakuho receives regular donations to keep his guest spaces well-furnished and comfortable. He finds it a little unsettling that the room he most frequently adds more items to is the room intended for heartbroken visitors, who often need copious snacks and a pillow to cuddle with to feel better before they leave.
