Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Its eyes glow brightly at night, and it enjoys attacking insects and small animals.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing.

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.

ShadowScatter is one of the more secretive hatchlings. She pretends she's a full grown dragon, and it was her pride that got her sidetracked one day, and ShadowLone has ignored her ever since. She looks up to DarkScatter, though she talks about him to the other hatchlings in the cave.
