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.

Yake Shinzo meaning Burnt Heart is a very dark dragon. He feels no need to help others in danger despite his size and strength and hungers after power. Most dragons tend to ignore or avoid him but for some reason all the really kind hearted dragons seem to flock to him. And despite his efforts to rid himself of them they always come back to him in one way or another. Because of this some people and dragons have a sneaking suspicion that he is really just a shy kind hearted dragon.
