Storm Dragons are the masters of the skies. They are excellent fliers and land only to rest and eat. In addition, they have full control of the weather. They are very hot-tempered and easily angered. They will attack any human that bothers them, conjuring strong winds and dangerous lightning.

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.

Two spirals short of a storm is in a way one of the calmest of the Storm dragons. He is not as easily angered as the rest of the Storm dragons, but he's very easily excited, so much so that it's easy to think he has the dragon version of nervous excitement. He is known for his inattentiveness and impulsive behavior. Because of the fact that he's easily excited and he's a Storm dragon, his owner used to call him "two spirals short of a storm" when he was a hatchling, and the name just stuck.
