Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It perfectly depicts summer weather.

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.

Natsu Wakame's name roughly translates to "new summer buds."  She is a sweet and easy-going dragon whose favorite pastime is using magic to encourage flower growth and then hiding herself among them.  A complete pacifist by nature, she had to be forced into learning defensive moves and spells by her mentor, Asami.  The teaching has served its purpose and she is now able to summon help from the flora around her.
