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.

Recently, alarming rumors have begun to circulate about a red dragon wreaking havoc wherever it goes—a dragon so fierce that only one particular knight can stop it.  Luckily, wherever Bonfyre goes, the knight isn't far behind—not terribly surprising, given that they dreamed up the scheme together.  By now, the pair have it down to an art—Bonfyre shows up to terrorize a village (with minimal damage in the process), the knight shows up to "defeat" the dragon, dragon and knight split the reward money, and they move on to the next town.  Bonfyre gets gold for her hoard and a little harmless entertainment, the knight gets fame and money, and the villagers get a little excitement in their everyday lives.  Everyone is happy, except for the dragons who have to try to repair the damage Bonfyre has done to the prevailing view of dragons.  One day soon, Faylarna or one of her cohorts will trace the rumors to their source, and then Bonfyre and her knight friend will face a true challenge.
