Thunder Dragons are the masters of electricity. Their wings gather energy as they soar through the clouds, and when they clap their wings together they can create devastating arcs of lightning. They can stay airborne nearly indefinitely, landing only to sleep and breed; they catch their prey from the air and take moisture from the clouds. A thunder dragon’s roar is considered to be an omen of misfortune.

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.

Spear of Lightning is the only companion of Spear of Icicle in the Cave of Legend, if you could consider him his companion. Spear of Lightning came to the Cave of Legend as a curious hatchling, only to see the fearsome ice dragon standing over him, and he fled instantly. Little did he know he would soon join forces with the powerful dragon. The main cause of turning his back to his friends and cave-mates was at the loss of his son, another thunder dragon, strayed too far from the cave and was captured, to never be seen again. Within his rage and broken heart, and the betrayal his mate felt, he turned to Spear of Icicle, who took him in and trained him as if he were his son.
