Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It likes to chase fish in shallow water.

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.

The victim of a vigilante crusading for "cleaner, prettier lineages," this tiny dragon was captured at birth and promptly trapped in hatchling form, preventing her from ever growing up and passing on her "messy" heritage. While she's a bit miffed about being deemed unworthy to breed, the idea of being a kid forever--and thus, always being able to shirk responsibility and get pampered--doesn't sound half bad to her.

When not busy getting into trouble, she can often be seen playing with another young hatchling named Glenner.
