Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It enjoys swimming in a nearby pond.

And look! Its fins and tail have gotten bigger, and you’ve moved it to a larger body of water to swim in. 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.

Stargrass is an active but thoughtful youngster that enjoys watching the stars come out in the night sky above the lake where he lives with his mother Lotus and his father Snowdrop. Stargrass takes his name from a tiny blue water flower that often gets tangled in his tail as he swims around his lake home.
