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.

Pipri is the adopted child of Pipro and Pipra, two mint dragons. She has no idea she was adopted, and thinks that one day she will grow up into a big strong shield dragon. Little does she know that she's frozen in time!
