Quicksilver dragons are rare and dangerous dragons that move 50% faster than average and breathe irresistible status-dispelling energy bolts. Fortunately, they're extremely rare, appearing almost exclusively in Vaults:5, Dis:7, and certain Dungeon vaults. If you see one elsewhere, it's likely a shapeshifter.
