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.

Trisiana SkyFire is more affectionately known as Tris by her friends—not that she has many. While all Thunder dragons have a natural aptitude for controlling the weather, especially lightning, Tris is talented than most. She has dead point accuracy and some of the best flying skills in the cave. However, she has something of an anger; she is easily insulted, and very introverted. When she was a hatchling her power would often overwhelm her when she became angry, causing bolts of lightning to hurt those near. Although she has gained greater control of her power, other dragons are still leery of her, and view her like an explosive, primed to go off at any moment.
