Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It has long toes, and likes to wander around on lily pads.
And look! Its toes have grown longer and developed webbing! 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.

Chikpoke's name simply means "small." He spends his days tagging along after Mizu and avoiding the larger water dragons, although he does have a tenuous friendship with Nalli. Unlike his mentor, he is fascinated with humans, but he has sense enough to observe them from a safe hiding place.
