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.

Flamerous is a proud and boastful dragon.  He likes to launch into long, descriptive stories of his past victories, both real and imagined.  When he is in such a mood, usually the only way another dragon can get away is to behave appropriately awed.  In battle, Flamerous is a fierce opponent, and there are never enough battles to satisfy his need for glory and riches.  There are rumors that he has a huge cache of gold and other plunder hidden somewhere, that he has willed to Calcifurr upon his death.  Not that Flamerous believes himself capable of dying.  At least not until he has beaten his rival, Odyn, in the serious matter of who is the better hunter.  Between the two, they've decimated the population of trolls, giants and ogres that used to live near the cave.  As such, conclusion of the argument will have to wait until the population of "vermin" can recover.
