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.

Aeardil sat alone in the rain, the water cascading off the trees above him, the spark on his tail sizzling in the wet. He had sat there for hours, just waiting for her to come by. Eventually, after he was well and truly soaked, she appeared, Cirewilna, the dragon he had fallen in love with as a hatchling.

Once a week Cirewilna left her home in the desert regions to visit her mother, the beautiful Lost Lady Love. Aeardil had taken to waiting for her at the edge of the forest, so they he could accompany her to the main cave. She rarely spoke to him and did not seem to notice the lengths he went to in order to see her, but he didn't care. Having her so close and being able to hear her voice was all he ever wanted.
