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.

"Pyrskep" roughly translates as "Fire-Thought," which was what this dragon was like as a hatchling. He was always questioning and experimenting, and jumping from one study to another. Today the fires of his mind burn just as brightly, but with more discipline. Though he's interested in everything, he particularly loves philosophy for the unanswerable nature of its questions. He also loves mathematics and logic for their determinism. Though he practices the fire magics that are his heritage as a red dragon, he has concentrated on developing precision instead of power. This has taken his magic in some unusual directions.
