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.

Doc Volt, or Voltie for short, is a young Electric Dragon. She is kind of like the "mad scientist" of her clan, and she is constantly thinking up little inventions for the other dragons. She has so far built an irrigation canal that brings water from the nearby river directly to her clan's cave, a lighting system of lanterns powered by stored energy she gets from lightning clouds, an in-cave shower system run by a raincloud she stole, etc. She has the ability to suck the energy straight out of lightning bolts and use it for things in the cave. She is one of the smartest in the clan, but is also quite eccentric. She has no specified mate at the moment.
