Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It’s very festively colored.

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.

Shiroshimi is a young, cheerful hatchling that loves to run and play on the snow. He calls himself a male, and is always running around and causing troubles. However, he rarely goes into the forest since some dragons mistook him for a small reindeer and tried to hunt him. If it wasn't for his reflexes, he'd have been eaten before he yelled he was a dragon.
