Thunder Dragons are the masters of electricity. Their wings gather energy as they soar through the clouds, and when they clap their wings together they can create devastating arcs of lightning. They can stay airborne nearly indefinitely, landing only to sleep and breed; they catch their prey from the air and take moisture from the clouds. A thunder dragon’s roar is considered to be an omen of misfortune.

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.

Sam (Sam Panda And The Thunder Dragon's nickname) is a very care free and energetic dragon. Sam loves to show off. He got his name from his favorite book as a hatchling, Sam Panda and the Thunder Dragon. Every night he would request that book, and he would never get tired of it. When his friend that he grew up with, a deep sea dragon named Marcia's Light, picked a different bed time story, Sam would whine and complain until he got his way. If Sam still didn't get his way, he would leave and come back when the story was over. Sam loves to show off. When you see lighting, look up. Sam might be there with his friends!
