I personally absolutely love lighting and thunderstorms! I live where we get a lot of hurricanes, so it's very exciting to me when we get a minor hurricane because I know I'll get to enjoy a couple days of rumbling thunder from the smaller storms it makes. And both my cat and bunny don't mind the thunder at all, so I can enjoy the sounds without having to worrying about them getting spooked! :D
edit: Thank you @Juxta13 so much for the help!! :D

Found this off of Google! It's about a rare phenomenon called rainbow lightning, where lightning strikes near a rainbow!

I see the spine of the world
Sparkle and shine, light the inside
I see the spine of the world
I know it's mine, twisted and tied

Alright, I'll go for the generic flash-bang method: The reason you can count the seconds between seeing a lightning strike and hearing its thunder (then divide that number by five) in order to tell how far away it was is because light travels a lot faster than sound. While you'll see the lightning almost immediately. the sound from the thunder takes about 5 seconds to go a full mile.

As for more picture, here's one I found that looks really impressive

Apparently it's a still from a youtube video on photographing lightning

Were thinking of going on an expedition. They are both fully stoned lightning battle mages, and could help a lair with their coli training - Both have rally, aid and shock.
So let's put into your raffle *either* Brandon *or* Cadderly and see which of them goes walkabout first :)
They might also come with some cool apparel or a familiar, but that will be a surprise wherever they go :)

I feel like lightning represents many things, change, power, ideas, light.
It strikes suddenly like an idea.
Suddenly like a snake's bite
It is beautiful danger.
When it is harnessed, amazing things can happen.
I don't have any "True" lightning dragons yet though.
And here is a lightning/thunder song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKopy74weus&list=PLmwX0IBf2N0GBrgYbh2hTFxMNWOibQvgQ&index=2
