“	“The electricity that engulfs the bodies of these bat-like keese makes them more dangerous than the standard type. They're capable of shocking anything they touch.”
	— Hyrule Compendium, Breath of the Wild

The body of this keese is eternally crackling with arcs of electricity. It behaves much like other more common keese, but its ability to stun prey makes it particularly dangerous when fought alongside other monsters.
     They are most abundant in dry climates and deserts, especially the Gerudo region. Lightning storms or any exposed electricity tends to attract these keese, or any normal turn keese in the area into this form.
     Environment: Caves, Desert, Grassland, Hills, Ruins
