A White Dragon Wyrmling in Dungeons & Dragons is the youngest and weakest stage of the white dragon’s life cycle, but it remains a dangerous creature. White dragons are the most feral and least intelligent of the chromatic dragons, known for their primal instincts, vicious temperaments, and deep connection to the cold. A wyrmling is a hatchling, newly emerged from its egg, typically no more than five years old. Though small by dragon standards, it is still a formidable threat to most adventurers due to its physical power and icy breath weapon.

Unlike older white dragons, wyrmlings have not yet developed complex lairs or amassed hoards, though their natural instinct to collect treasure—especially anything shiny or icy—is already present. They are typically found in frozen tundras, glacial caves, or windswept mountain peaks, often guarded fiercely by one or both parents. Even at this early age, they demonstrate the traits that define white dragons: cunning ambushes, an affinity for ice magic, and territorial savagery. A wyrmling’s breath weapon takes the form of a cone of freezing cold that can incapacitate or kill unprepared foes. They are quadrupedal, with small wings that allow for limited flight, and their scales are a dull white that hardens and brightens as they age.

White Dragon Wyrmlings are not known for forming alliances or displaying patience. They rely on instinct, not strategy, and often act out of hunger, fear, or aggression. Their intelligence is limited, but they possess a cruel playfulness when hunting, tormenting smaller creatures before delivering a killing blow. Despite their age, they are still considered dragons, and slaying one is both dangerous and notable. For adventurers, encountering a wyrmling might mean stumbling across a remote nest, triggering the wrath of a protective parent, or witnessing the early stirrings of a future terror of the north.
