Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon... except for the tangle of dangerous-looking vines surrounding it...

Now there are even more vines. Perhaps something is happening?

Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it typically marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are often capable of hunting on their own and are usually left alone by their mother.

Zeanno, though he takes after his father in appearance, is more like his mother, Malisie.  He has strong feelings for his father and mother and half siblings, loving them with all his heart.  Of course, he is certainly not a mushy hatchling and puts on a cold front towards all, including his family.  However, if any family member, no matter the distance, comes to him with a problem, he will do his best and call those whom he knows to help that family member.  Though, for most of his family, he is not the first person they would call on, despite him being the most dependable.
