Whelpling

Whelpling
Race	Whelpling
Affiliations	Dragon Aspects
First Appearance	Unexpected Discovery

Whelplings are spawns of the Dragon Aspect Vlaurunga, unintelligent infantile dragons that cannot cast magic other than the raw natural fire they breathe. They are not considered Divine Beings as in order to be Divine they must have a Sigil of Flame imprinted on their chest by Vlaurunga.

Characteristics

Whelplings have the appearance of a full size Red Dragon, and are about the size of a small Dwarven Keep. Whelplings due to being of a young age act feral similar to Golestandt, attacking and breathing fire on anything they see.

History

Background

Many would confuse a Whelpling with a full size Red Dragon, as even the smallest of Whelplings are often the the size of a small Dwarven keep. While Whelplings can vary in both size and strength, what separates them from Dragons is their intelligence. Younger Whelplings cannot communicate with others and most cannot use magic other than the raw natural fire they breathe. Although they are born from eggs laid by Vlaurunga herself, they do not become Divine unless a Sigil of Flame is imprinted on their chests by the great Dragon Aspect herself. Only the chosen few from her brood are selected to become part of her convocation and it is only in it that these Dragons are finally given names.
