Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It doesn’t move much, and appears to be covered in stone.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing. However, the wings look too heavy to fly and are filled with beautiful crystal.

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.

Sparku is a proud little dragon with a superiority complex. He is constantly parading around the cave, showing off his beautiful wings and annoying other hatchlings. His parents, Vizalain and Krystu, have attempted teaching him manners, but to no avail.
