[@ClocktowerEchos] Exceptionally strong shamen of Ogre society kidnap a young dragon, cut its head off, then perform a bizarre ritual to merge their bodies into the stump, turning them ageless, ever-growing, and granting them certain electrical magicks, namely the ability to absorb lightning, at the cost of most of their magical association with the Great Maw, even up to their immense round gut, which is sadly replaced with some weird ten pack dealie. That, and the need to sleep for increasing periods of time the larger and older they get, as in canon.
