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.

Woe is hot-headed, rash and fickle. He holds grudges against other members of the weyr for the pettiest reasons, and the few dragons he does get along with mostly stay away, however he has one good friend in Rock and Roll, and they often go hunting together. He has fallen for White Fire, which is no surprise, and everyone is waiting for her to take another mate and break his heart, like she did with all the others. Despite his attitude, Woe has a surprisingly caring side around the eggs and hatchlings, and often watches over the eggs.

His name is from a song.
