Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It must be very shy since it keeps hiding from you.

It’s gotten slightly bigger! 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.

Lil Dude was an abandoned egg and he was taken in by Oriokoe. Lil Dude gets along with Lil Bugger and mostly every dragon in Oriokoe's scroll. He is still shy though as his breed suggests but he gets moments where he gets confident and likes to take risks. Lil Dude is in Nightstar's group and is in charge of helping the offspring learn fighting and other skills by playing with them.
