Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It is very aggressive, and has brilliant turquoise markings all over its body.

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.

Spitfired Flame is a Stage Two Spitfire hatchling.

He has never developed into anything larger than a medium sized domestic pet. He is, however, just like the other hatchlings and enjoys sunning himself in the warm afternoons. He doesn't appear to have many friends, as they always grow up to be much bigger than him.
