Electric Dragons wield electricity with great prowess. Bright sparks race across these dragons’ bodies in a dazzling dance of light, complemented by the blindingly radiant sparks on their tails. Using their bellies and manes as stores for this electrical energy, Electric Dragons wield crackling magic, stunning and electrocuting their prey with a whip of their tail. During mating season it is typically those with the most brilliant sparks—an indicator of strength and hunting ability—that are drawn to each other.

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.

Arstia is a young, eager to learn dragon. She is a member of the Electric Draco clan. She is always paying attention to her mentor, Zeelia. She never misses a lesson. She excels in Flying acrobatics, Defense skills, and Arithmetic. Her mentor is extremely proud of her. All of the other dragons her age think that she is a goody two shoes, but she is just trying to learn. Zwamiam, a lively but lazy dragon, hates her and she hates him too. She knows if he tried to work, he would do ok. She doesn't see why he has to take his failures out on her. Others grudgingly respect her, but are annoyed that she does things better than most of them.
