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.

Gold and Scarlet hangs around EG almost daily just to "check on her". When she matured, she came to the conclusion that the entire human race was inferior and too dumb to take care of themselves. This is why she has "adopted" EG as her "pet", and she continuously brings her food and checks on her in an attempt to look after her.

She has concluded that humans make the worst pets, however, because they refuse to follow any commands. Every time she commands EG to sit, shake, or play dead, EG simply just stares at the dragon and claims, "I'm not a dog or a drake, Gold and Scarlet."
