| '''''A NightWing Guide to the Dragons of Pyrrhia''''' is present at the beginning of every book to give information about the [[dragons|dragon]] tribes. It was called ''The NightWing Guide to the Tribes'' in [[The Hidden Kingdom]]. The guide incorrectly stated that [[Queen Dazzling|Dazzling]] was the current queen of the RainWings, and that the tribe had no natural weapons. It gave no mention about the animus magic in the royal family of the SeaWings.

| *Sunny's condition is different from the rest of the SandWings; she has scales of a tawny gold, moss green eyes, and a harmless tail, due to her being half NightWing.
| |
| *MudWings hatched from blood red eggs are resistant to extreme heat.
| |
| *"Fire-born" SkyWings would have copper colored scales with veins of gold and blue eyes, while their twin would result without fire.
