Queen Rafflesia is the second oldest queen in Xevenay (my fan continent), and is the current leader of the MudWings. She is described as a very fair and well rounded queen, and is fiercely loyal and dedicated to running her tribe. She may not be as young and spry as when she was younger, but she’ll do anything to make sure her tribe is safe, happy, and strong. Rafflesia and her sib group are currently working on repairing the damage done to her tribe’s territory after the Hive Takeover (a war that resulted in most of her tribe abandoning their land when they were attacked by HiveWings). The next queen in line is going to be Rose Mallow (her granddaughter).

Queen Lapis is the current queen of the SeaWings, and has stepped into her role quite smoothly. After the death of Queen Tuna due to old age, Lapis was deemed fit for queenhood, and is a complete natural. She is the twin of Princess/General Lazuli, and is the complete opposite of her fierce, ambitious sister. Lapis is fair, calm-minded, rational, and a very intelligent dragon. Many SeaWings are relieved that she was chosen as the next queen rather than Lazuli, as although Lazuli is an amazing general and a fierce warrior, she wouldn’t be quite fit for queenhood—unlike Lapis. There has been no current heir picked, as Lapis is a fairly new Queen and is still young and healthy.

Queen Tangerine is the current queen of the RainWings, and is pretty different from the previous two discussed. She is short-tempered, easily annoyed, and likes things to stay consistent. Dragonets are probably her least favourite thing in the world, but luckily her heirs have been raised by her husband and wife—who are way better at taking care of dragonets than her. She is proudly polyamorous, and loves all her partners dearly. Despite all of her flaws, she has been a pretty popular queen throughout her ruling; at least by pure RainWings—hybrids aren’t too fond of her due to her distaste of them. The next queen in line is going to be Kiyomi (her daughter).

Queen Dusk is the current queen of the SandWings, and is an often overlooked queen. It’s not that she’s boring or weak or anything like that, it’s just that she hasn’t done anything too significant during her ruling. She did offer sanctuary to many SandWings who were affected by the Hive Takeover (as the HiveWings did encroach on Sand Kingdom territory, but didn’t end up taking much land due to harsh conditions), and sent out many military units to help defend her borders and other neighbouring kingdoms (such as the Mud Kingdom and Sky Kingdom). Other than her contributions to the most recent conflicts, she hasn’t done much, and is a pretty solitary queen who enjoys music and writing. The next queen in line is going to be Ringtail (her cousin (in my universe, cousins are able to become queens)).

Queen Dreamcatcher is the oldest queen on the continent, and is the current queen of the NightWings. In her long life, she has been through many hardships and battles, but despite all that, she is a very kind and generous queen. She almost single-clawedly repaired her tribe after a rough ruling from her grandmother, and due to this, she is quite popular with not only the NightWing tribe, but the other neighbouring tribes too. Maybe it’s the age getting to her, or maybe she’s always been like this, but Dreamcatcher has always been the most lax of all the queens on rules and regulations. Nowadays, her ruling is split between her, her husband, and her granddaughter (and future ruler) Hopefulsight.

Queen Topaz is the current queen of the SkyWings, although she wishes she wasn’t. Before her ruling, her sister, Queen Redtail, ruled the SkyWings amazingly, and was popular with all the tribes. But after being killed in a battle during the Hive Takeover, Topaz was forced to step in as the next queen quite unexpectedly. Due to this, Topaz is a very bitter and angry dragon, and often takes out her frustrations on her servants and royal councillors. The only dragon Topaz seems to tolerate is Queen Lapis—in fact, they were formerly very close friends and clawmates at Jewel Mountain Academy before they both had to step into their royal roles more. There is no current heir picked, as Topaz refuses to appoint one.

Queen Floe is the current leader of the IceWings, and is a queen you should definitely not mess with. She is wicked smart, and thanks to her extensive knowledge and large council, makes her a formidable opponent and a very intimidating dragon. However, she isn’t a terrible dictator or something like that. She’s surprisingly fair and respectful, and takes the time to work out any intertribal conflicts with grace and precision. Outside of her tribe though, she can be quite prickly and hard to get to know, and isn’t afraid to stand up for what she wants. The next queen in line is going to be Larna (her niece).

Queen Sunflower is the newest appointed queen in Xevenay, and her road to queendom has been quite a rough one. She was the one to kill the previous queen of the HiveWings—her mother, Queen Cadmium—after she went on a crazy power trip and started the Hive Takeover. She was almost killed by Cadmium, and was left with a scarred face, a mangled ear, and a broken horn. Since then, the HiveWings have been slowly rebuilding their tribe and paying their respects to the other tribes that had been damaged during the war—and all of this burden lays on poor Sunflower. She is very different than the average HiveWing, as she is much more considerate and kind, but that is a welcome change after the tyrant that was Cadmium. She has appointed Princess Ladybug as an heir in case things go wrong, but it is very unlikely that anyone will challenge Queen Sunflower.

Queen Azure is the current queen of the SilkWings, and is the definition of SilkWing stereotypes. She’s an often overlooked queen due to her softness and dislike of conflict, but to her, that’s perfectly fine. She’s a very agreeable queen, and is always willing to lend a claw to other tribes if they need help or resources. As a result, she’s been taken advantage of by quite a few other queens, and her council is often frustrated by her inability to set firm boundaries. She also has a fondness for humans, and makes sure Moorlands (the human town in SilkWing territory) is doing well and isn’t being targeted by other human-hating dragons. The next queen in line is going to be Claudina (her cousin).

Queen Acorn is the current queen of the LeafWings, and has had a rough time with her rule. During her early years as queen, she had to work with the NightWings quite extensively in order to prevent a full-blown war (it’s a very long story involving animus abuse and dragons possessing others lol), and even implemented a rule stating that animus dragons cannot be used like tools by their queens, and that abuse against animi is forbidden. Nowadays, Acorn is a secluded queen, preferring to keep LeafWing business to themselves and overall being a polite but distant figure of authority. The next queen in line is going to be Briar.

Queen Raven is the current queen of the RoostWings, and is one of my personal favourites. She’s gone through a lot during her short life as queen, but she’s handled it very well. From setting up the new Roostwing territory after fleeing their old home, to dealing with 11 other tribes that the RoostWings have never interacted with or even knew of their existence until recently, she’s been through it. However, she’s remarkably resilient and good-hearted, and just wants what’s best for her tribe and family. There are no current heirs old enough to be considered for the throne, but she’s planning on having eggs soon, and has a niece of her own who seems promising.
