Raiju

Raiju are a species of beast originally from Japan, that have spread worldwide. Translated from Japanese, the name raiju literally means "thunder beast", which is explained below.

Appearance
Raiju basically look like mundane wolves, however, they have a few qualities that makes them different than mundane wolves. For one thing, they are rather large, about the size of a warg. Another thing about them is, they are very beautiful, with silvery gray fur on their bodies. This fur is shot through (figuratively and literally speaking) with electric blue, lightning bolt-shaped markings, and these markings glow in the dark. However, the one thing that most obviously separates them from ordinary wolves are the two bull-like horns that grow from just underneath their eye sockets. Also, when a raiju is agitated, one can see electrical sparks that spark throughout their raised hackles and along their horns.

Behavior
Raiju are about as social as wolves, living in packs with three males, an alpha and his beta and gamma, their mates, and their pups. They usually use their electric power to stun prey and then kill it after they catch up to it. They tend to love storms, especially lightning storms, and will howl every time lightning strikes and thunder rumbles.
