Shortly after emerging from its host, a dalasmir spawn is comparatively weak, lacking many of the noticeable attributes of elder dalasmir, most notably the flaming breath and feared injecting claws. They don't fight unless they have to, preferring to hide underground or around more threatening dalasmir. If they are defeated with no hope of escape, they will do almost anything to preserve their lives, usually by threatening to call for more powerful dalasmiri. If this fails, they usually beg and plead or offer their attackers some kind of service in exchange for letting it go free. After three weeks of eating and growing, a dalasmir spawn enters a cocoon-like state and emerges a week later as a young dalasmir. |
