Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Unlike the other hatchlings, this one hatched with wings.

And look! Its back legs have become a second set of 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.

Orpaah is a very girly dragon despite her frozen state.  She likes to decorate herself with shiny rocks, change the color of her claws with berry juice, and of course, talk about all the cute boys.  She especially likes to flirt with many of the younger adult males in the clan.  When she attempts to flirt with some of the recently matured male dragons, they tend to laugh at her.  Nevertheless, she continues to try, for she feels that one day, someone will take an interest in her.
