Biography

The Hidden Kingdom

Kinkajou was one of the several missing RainWings that were held hostage by the NightWings. Kinkajou met Glory when Glory was knocked unconscious and brought through the portal to the Night Kingdom. She claimed that she was the youngest dragon there, and confirmed that there were fourteen dragons missing and three dead. With her help, Glory and Kinkajou both were able to escape and warn the rest of the RainWings of the upcoming danger.

Kinkajou participated in the venom accuracy test during Glory's challenge for the Rainwing throne and proved to be exceptionally better than what Bromeliad had said. During Queen Grandeur's turn, a sloth tumbled out of the trees and landed in front of the board. When Kinkajou leaped to move it away, Queen Grandeur's venom accidentally landed on the young RainWing's wing, saving the sloth, however, the venom was burning through her scales. After a venom test with the queen, Glory wiped some of her own venom on Kinkajou's affected spot (using a leaf) in an attempt to stop the venom from eating through her scales. It proved successful. Queen Grandeur forfeited, realizing that Glory should be the rightful queen, especially because Grandeur was related to Glory; Kinkajou thereby was awarded victory for the venom targeting, and Glory became the new queen of the RainWings.

The Dark Secret

Kinkajou is shown to have dreams about Glory and looks up to her, and is terrified that she might lose the ability to ever fly again. Kinkajou was the first dragon that Starflight went into her dreams with a dreamvisitor, hoping to warn his friends of the NightWings' plans.

The Brightest Night

In the epilogue, Glory mentions her when they talk about students for a new school on Jade Mountain. She says that she and Tamarin need real teachers, and not the small amount of time she has for them.

Personality

Kinkajou is very talkative and hyper, and when she was captured she learned how to have a sort of "telepathic" talk through scales by the shifting colors. She describes herself as "smart but annoying."

Trivia

• She doesn't have much venom, since she has only three years of age. However, she is very accurate, exact, and precise at targeting, as shown in the The RainWing Queen Challenge.
• She views Glory as her hero. In her dream, Glory appeared extremely gorgeous. She states to her fellow RainWings, "I'd follow Glory anywhere!", despite the fact Glory threatened to kill to become queen.
• Her name is based off of a meerkat from Meerkat Manor.
