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.

Zoa Mah Gar's parents cared for him dearly since he was an egg. On one terrible day, the egg slipped out of its nest and rolled down the hill, onto a human's feet. The parents looked at him, and that being there only egg, flew away, not looking back. The human knew then that he had to take care of this egg.<br/>Growing up, Zoa Mah Gar had a chewing problem, even after his teeth grew out, so the human always had to walk a mile to the volcanoes, picking up a should be a weeks supply of charcoal and brimstone, though Gar chewed it all up in less that three days. It was either that, or risk one of his fingers. Relief struck when he grew wings, he could not fly far, but just enough to find the pile of charcoal and brimstone, which the human left so he didn't have to walk as far to get some.
