Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon... except for the tangle of dangerous-looking vines surrounding it...

Now there are even more vines. Perhaps something is happening?

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.

Madness is a young frozen hatchling who lost her vision when she was just a newborn. Because of her disability she's taken on a form of self hatred that makes no dragon want to be around her. She has no one to talk to or interact with and sometimes prefers it that way. She likes having conversations with herself, claiming "they" know her better than anyone else does. At some points the conversations turn into fights and she is left with scratches. No dragon knows why she's like this, and they're too afraid to find out.
