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.

Shock was always mean to the other hatchlings and younger dragons in his cave, until the leaders of that cave decided they'd had enough of him, and forced him to leave. He flew up and down the coastline, sending bolts to the unfortunate birds below, unnecessarily often.

For six years he existed in hatred and solitude, living on only the meat of stray seagulls and the purity of his emotions. Exactly six years after he was expelled, he met another group of dragons that felt the same rage, and their leader introduced herself as LightningPicks. They battled, but in the end Shock surrendered and was forced to join the dragon and her followers.

He enjoys his new life, even though it is forced. Electrocuting anything in their path, they rule the coastal environment.
