Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Just like the egg it hatched from, it is very dark in color.
And look! It’s grown its wings! It must be close to maturing.

Young dragons are relatively defenseless. Their scales don’t grow in until right before they mature, and they have almost no strength. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are usually left alone by their mother and begin to hunt and survive on their own.

This playful young male likes to decorate others' tails.  Usually he uses loops of vines tied to items to slip them onto whomever's tail is nearby, but sometimes he is forced to rely on mud as glue instead.
