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.

As one of the fastest-growing hatchlings that Nadat's cave has seen, Burgeoning earned his name early on. For a short time after he reached adulthood some wondered if the name would still fit. Their question was answered when he started making his bed of treasure to sleep in; he now has his own side-cave as it keeps growing. He's a bit on the greedy side, but he works to keep it from getting out of control.
