Lightningscale

Lightningscales are a thing of beauty with their gleaming blue scales under the light of an electrical storm. As their name suggests, these beasts harness electrical abilities through the magnetic waves in the air. Due to their stormy nature, lightningscales cause ravaging storms that can shatter a mountain.

Basic Information

Ecology and Habitats

Lightningscales seek out active storms and rainy terrain. Mountainous regions are a great place to start as they reach high up into the sky, and even more so if they are next to the sea during spring. A lone lightningscale is dangerous enough to cause a fatal and harrowing storm while traveling through the realm. These lightningscales are considered "banished" by their clan and are usually far more dangerous than a group of them.

Massive, overpowering storms that wreak devastating damage are usually signs that a lightningscale is in the vicinity. And considering the Stormy Peaks is their main lair, lightningscales produce storms for the Lightning in a Bottle facility to use and manufacture electricity. Some rumors exist, stating that Lightning in a Bottle captures the dragons and tortures them into creating more storms to produce more electricity.

Geographic Origin and Distribution

Lightningscales can solely be found in the Stormy Peaks, where electrical storms are at their worst. Rarely have they ever been seen is other locations. Once such recording has been over Friska Lake.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Lightningscales are powerful, majestic beasts capable of starting a lightning hurricane when slightly irritated. Lightning consistently sparkles off their scales, as if they're always at a full charge. Touching a lightningscale is almost a certain death unless the beast is deceased. Their sight and hearing are impeccable, especially in a storm. The average lightningscale can hear up to 56,818 miles away, while their eyesight has a maximum vision of 795 miles away.

Lightning in a Bottle Facility

This facility was constructed by Dashier Mallor in the Stormy Peaks as a weak to conduct electricity into a power source for people to enjoy. The facility remains standing in the center of the Storm Peaks. Citizens of Hellisfjoror do not understand how a building can survive such powerful electrical storms without getting severely damaged in the process.
