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.

Athanatos Dorkface is said to be an immortal black dragon who was cursed at a very young age. According to the stories, Athanatos was 'frozen' and never allowed to grow up, doomed to remain a hatcling forever.

Athanatos is the child of Tromos Dorkface and is often said to be very wise, despite his curse.
