Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It has a large, shield-like object at the end of its tail that it uses for protection.

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.

RoyalScale acts like a young hatchling, and spends a lot of the day playing. She is very shy around new dragons, but once she gets to know them, she is no longer shy. RoyalScale loves to fly with friends, and she is very fast for her age. She doesn't take being frozen hard, it gives her an excuse to act childish instead of acting more mature.
