Born of Lightning he may be, but this won't stop him from behaving like a Shadow dragon would. Yet electricity still seems to course through his veins, filling him with joy and life. And he puts this to use of course, specializing in pranks of all kinds. It is probably for the best that you keep an eye out for this one. He moves like the lightning itself.

When choosing a victim, Murdock wasn't picky. Usually it was the first person who crossed his path and sparked an idea in his mind. Today it just so happened to be dear Akili. Now Akili and Murdock were not too different. They both obsessed over their particular talent, a passion that everybody could see. However that did not save the poor historian from Murdock's ruthless pranks! Though these pranks were not particularly harmful they could very well be annoying.

Akili had just finished organizing his papers before stepping out to grab a tasty snack. A small break from being buried in his papers. With his room unattended, Murdock slipped inside quick as lightning with his scarf trailing behind him like a flash of green. It didn't take him long to set up his prank, he already had it built after a few days of pondering and now it was ready to be tested on an unwilling victim. The Spiral dragon darted out as quickly as he could just as Akili was returning. Now to watch. He peered inside, keeping hidden and trying to suppress snickers of amusement as Akili settled down to his work.

Akili took notice that his stack of papers had moved to the wrong side of the table and gave a bewildered look before moving them back. Right on top of the metal plate Murdock installed. The weight was all it took, the metal plate tilting so slightly it was almost impossible to tell. The stack of papers flew to the ground in a flurry just from that minimal adjustment, shocking the Ridgeback. Exclaiming his surprise, he stacked all of the papers once more only for them to slide right off once again. By this point Murdock couldn't help but to let out his boisterous laughter which caught the historian's attention. He was quickly chased out in irritation.

Another prank was already stewing in his mind. Ramone already had to deal with the pranks of her mate, however, Murdock wasn't going to spare her. In broad daylight he set up a trap and yet nobody saw it. That is until Ramone came through. She paused whenever she spotted the lure, a stuffed toy lying in the dirt. Surely one of the hatchlings dropped it! She decided she must return it or perhaps give it to somebody else to return considering the hatchlings feared her. All of her pondering was left for later and Murdock tapped his claws together in anticipation as he watched her from the trees.

She swooped in, her tiny body almost the size of the stuffed toy. She tugged on it but it wouldn't budge. Not because she was weak but because the toy was attached to a mechanism beneath the ground. One more tug and that was all it took. The toy came free but in return, a metal dome rose from the ground and clamped down over the tiny Fae. Murdock could hear her shouting in her surprise and already blaming her mischievous mate though it wasn't his fault this time around. Again Murdock was laughing, darting around the trap in a triumphant circle. Needless to say, Ramone didn't trust another stuffed toy after the incident.
