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.

The Lone One she is called by the people and animals that live in the rocky region of cold ocean shores near the mountain home of Nettle. This red dragoness has never been seen in the company of other dragons, and even the land around her dwelling has been scorched of all living things. Some call her evil, but others whisper sad tales of a love lost to the hunting parties from the north, and say that Nettle watched in helplessness as a young dragon while her love was captured and killed by the hunters. No one knows the truth of the tale, but many suspect that it might be true. Because while Nettle might try to keep all other living things at bay, she is never seen to openly hunt down any intelligent species, and the people say that it speaks of a soft spot in her heart.
