TRIVIA:
- Red Mountain dragon is original from the mountain chain with the names Immen, Taileg and Tail spine. they are the only dragon species living on these mountains.

- 10 of 100 red mountain dragons have eumelanin which colors their skin blue instead of red. these blue-skinned mountain dragons normally liver higher up in the mountains where there is more snow since the blue color makes them more visible on in the reddish mountains. 

- their long legs and long-winged type wings make them pretty agile. since they can fly; it is very rare a Red Mountain dragon dies by falling. 
 
- in ancient times the Red mountain dragons were known for fatal infight because of lack of enough food to feed them all. if one of them shows weakness they will either be killed by stronger dragons or simple stave to death if they didn't steal or used trickery to get food. 

- the modern Red Mountain dragon does not have these problems anymore but they still show a high hostility if somebody tries to take their property or food. it is pretty much a tradition for them now to show no mercy to others for showing weakness in a fight or towards thieves.

- Red mountain dragons have a yearly tradition were they sent teenage dragons on a walkabout on the Tail-spine mountains without food. even though in modern times this walkabout has supervision, infight between the youngest is still a common thing. when the teenage dragons have a walk through the entire mountain chain he/she will be seen as an adult. those who give up on the way will be forced to try again next year or seen as a child for the rest of their lives. 

- they have unfortunately gotten a bad reputation as Barbarians for these brutal traditions. not many understand the need to be tough in the harsh environment these dragons have lived in for thousands of years and the need to keep their race tough in case the harshness comes back. they did survive incredible well through the Dark war because of this 'cruel' tradition.
