Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Magic seems weaker when it is near.

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.

Koovf loves to grab sticks out of others' grasps and collect the ones he thinks look nice. He is a particular nuisance to mages holding magic wands, because his aura negates their magical defenses. Once he steals the pretty carved sticks from the mages, he puts them in his hoard. He has no idea what true power resides in his pile of sticks.
