Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It can fit right in your palm.

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.

Jamil is the adopted son of Jeremiah Negeths. Jeremiah found his egg on one of his many journeys, and rescued it from near death. He has been plagued by constant sickness his entire life, and therefore will never reach full maturity, but he doesn't mind that. He's happy to travel with his adopted father and see the world.
