Male Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Cadaceus Chameleon
Birthday: Saturday, June 12, 2010
Owner: Calah
Element: Neutral 
Small as it is, this hatchling is invisible most of the time, making it very difficult to care for. Whenever it is in a bad mood, it seems as though this tiny cadaceus chameleon refuses to be seen. Because of this, it is important to care for this little one carefully. When in a jovial mood, the hatchling enjoys clinging to your shoulder or exploring the Keep, climbing all the trees. Its feet are able to cling tightly to branches, and it secures itself with its prehensile tail. From its high perch, the green lizard happily watches the daily activities of the Keep, taking many breaks for naps.
The ability to change color can be seen in non-magical creatures, but cadaceus chameleons are more skilled at it than most. Along with the ability to match any color, these creatures can turn completely invisible. Cadaceus chameleons only do this while under extreme stress, however, as the normal ability to change color is usually all that is necessary. When young, these creatures cannot control their powers as well as the adults, and are often invisible until they master the power. Predators have a rather difficult time trying to find these lizards, not only because of their coloration but because their eyes can see in all directions, able to rotate separately. This means that bugs have to be very fast indeed to escape them. Cadaceus lizards eat all manners of insects, their long tongues easily catching unwitting prey. These lizards spend most of their time in trees, waiting for food to fly to them. A garden is kept in the Keep, full of varieties of trees, where these animals generally reside.
