Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It seems to enjoy sunbathing.

And look! It has grown much 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.

TerraeDarling is a Terrae Dragon hatchling. She is fun-loving and free, and she parades about her home forest with her head held high. She has made friends with a number of deer, and especially loves the little baby fawns. TerraeDarling can be found playing with deer as often as she is playing with other dragon hatchlings. She also has a fondness for human children, though they are rarely allowed to wander into her part of the forest.
