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.

Zingy was once a very intelligent dragon with a lot of promise. When he was younger, he would create electricity near metals in the ground. He studied them. Some of them held the electricity for only a few seconds, while others could hold the electricity and spread it to other nearby metals. They fascinated him. Over time he began to scrape them from the ground so that he could study them at home. He began to stockpile many of these metals, they filled his cave from the floor to the ceiling. Dragons nearby were beginning to hear of his experiments and he was earning himself great fame.

Unfortunately, good things don't last forever. One evening a storm began to brew. Lightning struck the ground in many places, including the entrance to Zingy's now very wet cave. The electrical current ran through the water on the ground and into his metal collection. He was asleep at the time. The shock scrambled his brain.

Now he spends his days making strange noises and attempting to eat rocks.
