Young, or lesser, sail fiends rarely leave the nest until they are old enough to hunt. If they are encountered, they will fight if they are threatened, but they will usually wait for a parent or other pack member to fend off intruders. They are lighter in colouration than their elders, and their sails are tiny, having yet to develop into the impressive sails of adults, especially those of greater sail fiends. There have been instances of sail fiends being raised in captivity, but a young sail fiend without food is a dangerous creature that will attempt to eat anything that looks edible, from would-be captors to nosy adventurers.
