Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It occasionally shoots small puffs of smoke from its nose, like it’s trying to breathe fire.

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.

Pheonix-Down is a lively young dragon. She has lots of energy to spare, and is always getting into something, or poking her snout into other people's business.  She is the life and spirit of any gathering, from important councils to the parties of hatchlings.
