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.

This dragon has often been spotted by inhabitants of the small coastal towns that flank the brooding mountains, drifting through the storm clouds and weaving beautiful designs into the dark with his electricity. Many of the locals believe his apperance is an omen that bad times are soon to come, but if so, they won't come at the dragon's claws; quiet and reclusive, the only time he descends is to snatch monstrous fish out of the gaping water to serve as his meals.
