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.

Egbert (also spelled Ecgberht or Ecgbriht) was legendary Dragon-King of Wessex from 802 until 839. Though much is known about glorious deeds of this valiant warrior dragon, little is known about his character though we all know that the whole island succumbed to his might and charm and celebrated his wise dragon rule. The title of bretwalda first appears in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle to denote rulers who had imperium over much or all of the isle of Britain, so Egbert was a powerful dragon, the first of his kin of red dragons to rise to kingdom. Under his rule no knight was allowed to hurt a dragon, and no dragon to hurt a knight.
