Magnificent
- "Someone's been counting? Who has that kind of energy?"
- — Magnificent, about the kidnapped RainWings.
Template:Charbox Ex-Queen Magnificent is a female RainWing and was one of the six former queens of the Rainforest Kingdom who took turns ruling during the events in The Hidden Kingdom. She has green eyes that are friendly and a little sleepy-looking. Kinkajou stated that Magnificent's main problem is being forgetful. She makes promises and then never sees them through, shown when Mangrove went to her almost every day to ask her to help him find Orchid and she kept forgetting. She is shown to be lazy and uncaring about the missing RainWings, as she never noticed how many were actually missing. After she found out, she still refused to make any attempt to save them, making it clear that she has little loyalty to her tribe.
Biography
When Glory approached Magnificent with Mangrove about the missing RainWings, Magnificent didn't show any concern for the missing RainWings, and insisted that they were most likely just sleeping somewhere before assigning Glory the task of looking into their whereabouts. This led to Glory finding the secret home of the NightWings as well as the captive RainWings.
Glory came before Magnificent and told her to rescue the captive members of her tribe, but the queen refused. Magnificent didn't seem to care, saying that they wanted a rest. Enraged, Glory challenged her for the RainWing throne. Surprised but intrigued, Magnificent accepted the challenge. However, according to RainWing tradition, queenship would be decided through a series of team oriented activities instead of a battle to the death. According to Handsome, that was the way they had done it for years. For her team, Magnificent gathered the other RainWing queens, as Glory meant to take the throne from all of them. However, she thought Glory would choose her friends, the Dragonets of Destiny as that would make them fail since these contests revolve around RainWing abilities. Queen Glory, foreseeing this would happen, chose Kinkajou, Tamarin, Mangrove, and Jambu.
Magnificent and Glory competed together in the camouflage contest. Glory found Magnificent disguised as a fruit cart by following the gaze of the crowd. While she was disguised, Magnificent scared Glory's sloth, Silver, into making a straight beeline for Glory's hiding place, winning her the round. Magnificent set up a stash of fruit to help Dazzling win the fruit gathering contest and had Exquisite's sloths choke Jambu in the treetop race. Despite her cheating, she lost when Queen Grandeur forfeited after learning Glory was the true heir to the RainWing throne when they did a venom test.
Personality
Queen Magnificent is a forgetful and incredibly lazy dragon. She didn't pay much attention to the fact that some of the members of her tribe were being kidnapped, and when told about it, she treated it nonchalantly. She was shown to rush through listening to the requests of her subjects and always opted for the quickest solution. She is also very vain, adorning herself in flowers and changing her scale colors in order to look very elegant.
Nevertheless, Magnificent could be ruthless and is willing to play dirty when she wants to. She went great lengths and cheated in the competition against Glory to keep her title, and was very defensive of her title as queen. Her bitter side also shows when Queen Exquisite tells her sloths that "Auntie Maggie is stressed", and she immediately becomes irritated and snaps at her fellow queen, saying that she doesn't want to be called "Auntie Maggie."
