Royal Crimson Dragons are so named due to their massive size and confident, regal bearing. Most of the time they are laid back, ignoring non-prey creatures smaller than themselves, although they will occasionally take fresh kills from other dragons as a reminder of their place in the social order. Although there are few other dragons large enough to pose a threat to Royal Crimsons, they have little tolerance for potential rivals and will fiercely defend their territory from such intruders.

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.

Thanks a Bunch is an uncharacteristically polite dragon. Even while subjugating smaller, weaker individuals, he always asks and thanks them in a most courteous manner. "Ben, can you gather some of those purple flowers, please." "You guys, please help me with this puzzle and I'll give you something for it." "I am much better than you, but thank you for letting me push you around." He even asks permission when he wants to kill and eat a subordinate. (They usually say no, and he looks for something else to dine on.) Most dragons find this behavior bizarre, and those bigger or more powerful than Thanks a Bunch, such as the fell and magma who occasionally make an appearance, don't feel it's necessary or worthwhile to hurt him.
