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.

Born in the caves, abandoned as an egg, and eventually rescued by the Sylvain clan, Kirinai grew up unable to properly control the electricity she generates naturally. Though Kirinai has gotten better at modulating the electric charges so they don't harm others, there is an ever-present field of static electricity that surrounds her, which causes loose items to stick to her scales. Some of the hatchlings find it funny to throw dry leaves and feathers at her, but Kirinai doesn't mind, as she's happy to have others to play with.
