This hatchling appears to be... dead?

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.

Effrayant means "scary" in French. This hatchling was carelessly tossed around as an egg by the other dragons and came out to look like a horrible, scary, thing. Everyone is terrified of Effrayant. It never moves, so some think the hatchling is dead. Others claim they've seen it twitch. No one has enough courage to verify Effrayant is dead. They can't even approach it with out shivering. This hatchling is so sad and doesn't mean to frighten others. The only thing Effrayant wants is some love.
