These are the dragons of the Dark Queen. Pray that you never pass under the sight of one of these beasts, lest you become its lunch, or worse - its plaything...



Red
The most powerful of the dragons of Takhisis is the red. At roughly the same size as a gold, the reds love spreading fear and destruction. The fire they breath is said to be able to melt stone. Also, making them twice as dangerous, the red dragons are highly skilled in magic. Their loyalties are often misinterpreted, making them difficult to be used by a dragon highlord - they serve the Queen first, and their "master" second. The giant red Ember was the mount of the highlord Verminaard. Its actual job was not to serve Verminaard but rather to keep a close eye on him.


Blue
The blue is the preferred mount of most of the highlords for they are truely loyal to their riders, which can make them a formidable weapon as a cohesive unit. The blues, which natually hail from desert areas, are about forty two feet long and breathe a powerful bolt of electricity. They are, as the reds, power spell casters. The blue dragon Skie was the mount of the highlord Kitiara and played a part in the death of Knight of the Crown, Sturm Brightblade.


Black
The black, being sensitive to light, is at home in dark swamps or underground. They are very independant and do not like to be under the command of dragon highlords. Because of this, they are usually used as spies and guards. At about thirty feet in length, the blacks can attack with tooth and claw or with deadly acid. The Companions had to face the black dragon Khisanth in the ruins of Xak Tsaroth and if it wasn't for the healing powers Goldmoon, the black would have taken the life of her beloved Riverwind.


Green
The green is considered cruel and bad tempered even by the other evil dragons. They are almost impossible to control as they serve only those who they believe are worth of being called master. The green is the most clever and subtle of the evil dragons making him useful in plots where trickery and magic play a large role. Greens usually grow to about thirty six feet in length. Their breath weapon is a cloud of poisonous chlorine gas. The monsterous Cyan Bloodbane was able to control and twist the dreams of the Speaker of the Stars and destroy Silvanesti.


White
The white dragons are the smallest, being only twenty four feet in length, and rarest of the evil dragons. The are almost never seen outside the icy reagons of southern Ansalon as they can not live comfortably in warm climates. Their low intelligence makes them able to cast only the simplest of magic spells. They are mostly used in scouting and in the guarding of Icewall. Their breath weapon is a cone of frost.
