Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It has bright blue eyes, and is as clumsy as any other hatchling, but it never seems to get injured.

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.

Lucre is a quiet girl who idolizes Yasha and Kireigoto.  She is a student of healing magic, and practices on bugs and small animals that the other hatchlings catch and bring back to the cave.  She is fascinated with humans, and often sneaks away from the cave to spy upon a nearby village, disguising herself as a rock or tree stump to observe unnoticed.
