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.

Aoran is Altanir Stormgrace's devoted mate and most loyal fan.  He prides himself on recognizing her storms for the masterworks that they are, and delights in using his electricity to zap anyone so lacking in artistic appreciation as to actually dare to criticize one of Altanir's masterpieces.  If a dragon settlement takes damage from one of Altanir's storms or from Altanir herself, then Aoran feels they only have themselves to blame for demanding that she stifle her creativity to fit their desires.  Aoran, for obvious reasons, doesn't have many friends—too many of the local dragons have been affected by one of Altanir's storms or fits of pique to hold much good will toward one of her staunch supporters—but he doesn't care, feeling that any passing loneliness is more than offset by the chance to watch artistic genius in action.
