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.

Edison's favorite pastime is shocking fish in tidal pools and gulping them up one after the other. He only shares if he thinks it will get him something, like a pretty bauble or the chance to go on a hunt with one of the fiercer dragons of the mixed adoptive cave. Despite his inherent selfishness, he's not a bad sort. He took Lilatha's warning that if he ever shocked any of her beloved bullfrogs he'd be sorry to heart, despite the fact that she's so small he could crush her with one foot.
