Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. Its eyes glow brightly at night, and it enjoys attacking insects and small animals.

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.

Black gold scale decided that humans weren't worth her time to be kind to. After watching her mother destroy five towns, she decided that is what she would do with her life. Because of this, she has been frozen as a hatchling to keep her from her fate. That doesn't mean anyone's safe, because she still goes after any human that goes past her, especially her own "master." She sees Wolfin as a threat and an annoyance, so she watches as her "master" sleeps, and tries to decide the best way to kill the owner of her scroll.
