Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Ever since it hatched, it has been hiding among the tree leaves.

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.

Orichid's Thorn, or Thorn, is the exact opposite of his dark green brother, Baby Vine. While he is found in the tree tops, jumping from branch to branch or sliding along on vines, Baby Vine is close to the ground. The two always want the other to see things there way but while they try to do that they always find time to compromise and hang out on the middle ground of the conifer forest.
