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.

Red Waterlilly should have been born a blusang, for in any free moment she has she spends it swimming. She'd hunt for fish if she didn't scare them away because she loves being in the water so much. Her bright color makes her easy to spot though, and her practicing has made her so good that she is seen helping scare fish towards the fishing boats. She never takes food in payment though, so the fishermen instead give her interesting shells and driftwood for her to decorate her cave with.
