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.

Akkil is the most noisy and sensitive dragon in her herd. She cried a lot as a hatchling. Now dragons and humans can hear her terrible roars and squalls miles away, so she can perfectly warn other dragons or predators to stay away from herd's domain. Akkil is friendly and chatty, but can sadden and resent easily when dragons blame her for keeping them up or being too bothersome. She, however, makes a perfect nurse, because of her patience when playing with hachlings.
