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.

Sparks was born to a red dragon who fell in love with a rock. Sure he was a handsome, deep blue diamond-like rock, who his mother claims was really simply a very calm, very lazy dragon who looked like a rock. Sparks doesn't buy it. His father is a ROCK.

Sparks is also distantly related to Midas Dorkface. He doesn't much like the idea of being related to a dragon with the name "Dorkface". It almost sounds like something the humans would make up to trick him and make him look like an idiot. Not that being sired by an inanimate object isn't bad enough already, but he's very wary of humans and their shenanigans.
