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.

Harathgar is a strange case. Her gender was confused in the beginning of her life, and as a result, her name is one of a male dragon that means "he of great strength". She doesn't resent it though; it makes for a great laugh at Elder Terra's expense. Harathgar however, truly lives up to her name because she is still a great warrior despite her age. She rends the sky with her lightning.

In the Moonrise War, she was forced to fight on the side of Stormfront.
