Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. The flame on its tail casts a flickering light.

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.

Delmarva Flikjif was named after a type of Fox Squirrel. She is slippery as an eel, able to slip between small spaces and get away from trouble. She loves picking berries for her father, Misjif, to sneak into other dragon's food. She definitely inherited her mother's deadly glare, and dragons consider it a great weapon if she's on their side. If they're against her, however, they'd better beware.
