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.

Scarletine is a Red dragon with a nasty temper. She wants everything to go her way, and if it doesn't, she'll usually attempt to burn everything down, much to the dismay of other dragons. Scarletine gets angry so easily that there is even an 'Evacuation Plan' set out so that if she starts setting everything on fire, all of the other dragons--especially the hatchlings and eggs--can get away safely. Whenever this happens, Delta's Grace, a Water dragon, and all of the Storm dragons must work together to douse the flames. Afterwards, Scarletine, unfortunately, must 'sit-out' in a separate room in the cave, much like what happens to a hatchling that misbehaves.
