Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It’s very festively colored.

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.

Splattarte loves to paint.  She has a unique style in that she uses her tufted tail to pick up the paint and fling it at the medium she is painting.  Many dragons consider her products to be dripping messes, but they just do not understand the artistic nature of her work.
