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.

Because of his dark hue and eerily glowing eyes, many hatchlings are afraid of Lawuv. The little black dragon is relatively harmless, however, with a surprising lack of magical powers usually seen in his species. He tries to make friends with the other hatchlings but usually they run away from him, which makes him resent them.
