Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Its eyes glow brightly at night, and it enjoys attacking insects and small animals.

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.

Bard is one of the members of the elite Shadow Tribe.  She loves to recite epic poetry and sing of heroic deeds.  She never needs to fight due to the special "bardic immunity" granted to all great storytellers within the land.  Everyone, from the youngest hatchling to the oldest ancient elder, loves to listen to her tales.
