Fire Dragon is a damage over time. Therefore, it can't sufficiently benefit from traps. Storm Lord, on the other hand, deals all its damage up front and when combined with windstorm (the only spell I can think of that puts traps on all enemies in one turn) can therefore deal much more damage, with the added benefit of a stun at the end. Incidentally, I think its the stun that reduces the base damage.

fire dragon is not over powered because storm lord does around 700 with a stun dragon does a total of around 900 with no sstun so that is what a 200 difference it not ever powered at all it just uses fire ability to hit iver rounds and storm just hits big and stun them deal with it

It's because Fire Dragon is an damage-over-time spell. They do typically more damage than other types of spells.

Storm Lord dishes out its damage in 1 solid hit. Fire Dragon requires you to wait 3 extra turns for it to tick off all its damage.

It is only fair that Fire Dragon, since it has to wait that extra time, deals more damage.
