==Etymology==
 In this instance, the word ruby refers to the dragon's color.
Its Japanese name translates to Rubrum Dragon. 
The colored dragons in Final Fantasy derive from Dungeons & Dragons, where red dragon is one of the chromatic evil-aligned dragons, and gem dragons are neutral, Sardior the Ruby Dragon being their deity.
