Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It has a large, shield-like object at the end of its tail that it uses for protection.

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.

StealthfulGuardian is a very quiet Guardian Dragon hatchling. He sticks to the shadows, watching and listening to the daily activity is his cave. His favorite activity, though, is to spend time with the adult Guardian Dragons of his cave. Though he loves his friendly father, PlayfulGuardian, he doesn't really look at the world the same way. He's more like his mother, the Pink Dragon, StealthfulSmile.
