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.

V8 is unusual for a red dragon in that he refuses to eat meat. He eats leaves, fruits, and vegetables. Especially vegetables!

A tart parsnip can make his day. A succulent sweet potato is cause for celebration. His paws-down favourites are spinach and mushrooms. V8 has perfected the art of using his flame to perfectly roast his veggies (along with the occasional marshmallow for dessert!). Kit often has him prepare the side dishes for her meals.

V8 would love to be a judge for the duotones' cooking competitions but is usually unable to as he knows that would involve having to eat meat. Maybe someday they'll do a challenge that involves no meat and then hopefully they'll invite him along for the show.
