In the [[A NightWing Guide to the Dragons of Pyrrhia|NightWing Guide to the Dragons of Pyrrhia]], Dazzling was listed as the current queen, as she was most likely queen at the time of the [[NightWings|NightWing]] visit, which might have been why the NightWings thought that she was the only queen of the RainWings. However, when they discovered there was more than one queen, they did not update the scrolls saying Dazzling was queen to show there was more than one queen. She is described as a pushover, saying that she would grant anything to a petitioner if they gave her enough tribute. [[Queen Glory|Glory]] described her to look "like she'd eaten a few too many avocados and papayas during her reign", implying she's well-fed like most RainWings, but larger.
