 === Maturation ===
-Maturation from egg to hatching is roughly one year. Maturation from hatchling to member of society is about 15-20 years. Clutches generally consist of two to three eggs, though particularly large females may be able to produce more eggs per clutch.

 Newly born Raiken cannot take care of themselves and must be cared for and fed by others. Their scales are not well developed and their bones are rather weak, as they lack the metal reinforcements that adult Raiken possess.

 By ten years old, Raiken young should possess almost fully developed scales and claws. This allows them to hunt small game with no tools.
-Around fifteen years of age, Raiken undergo puberty. This is extremely important for two reasons. First, it gives them the ability to reproduce. Second, their bones are slowly reinforced with metal, making their skeletal structure more solid. With their skeletal structure reinforced, their natural armor is allowed to fully harden and develop. Prior to puberty, the Raiken skeleton wouldn't be able to handle the weight. It does have the side-effect of increasing their weight greatly however. While Raiken young are able to swim, after puberty, they are unable to do so.
