Red dragon wyrmlings are the young freshly hatched of this type of dragon. They remain like this for up to 5 years, and have bright glossy scarlet scales. Like any dragon it has a reptilian look to it, with 4 legs, and a pair of wings which are probably the longest out of any dragon. They constantly smell of sulphur and pumice, and prefer to live in caves with volcanic & geothermic activity, though they will happily live in caves high in mountains & hills so they can look down on others. At this age they will be looking to build up their lair & treasure hoard, usually capturing & dominating other creatures to use as slaves to fashion their caves into more ecstatically pleasing homes.

Suggested Environments
