Splendor
- "We're going to be exploded and covered in lava and melted and dead!"
- — Splendor right before the NightWing Exodus during the events of The Dark Secret.
Template:Infobox Character Splendor is a female RainWing, and was one of the six queens of the RainWings that took turns ruling until the NightWings kidnapped her along with sixteen other RainWings before the events of The Hidden Kingdom, three of which died during their capture. She was the only queen to be captured. The NightWings thought that once they had the RainWing queen, the tribe would do anything to their will, they didn't realize that there were more queens taking turns ruling.
Biography
According to Mangrove, Splendor was the first RainWing to be kidnapped by the NightWings. Kinkajou later mentioned her as one of the captured RainWings, when she was in the NightWing fortress. The other RainWings had brushed it off and gave themselves a new queen.
It is revealed the NightWings assumed that if they captured the RainWing's queen, the tribe would obey them, seeing their queen at their mercy. However, this plan failed, as there wasn't much of a RainWing monarchy, and most RainWings barely even noticed her absence except for Mangrove. Splendor sprayed Vengeance with venom when he tried to capture her, and scarred him for life. In The Dark Secret, Starflight and Fatespeaker see her as one of the captives in the dungeon. Deathbringer had been locked to a cage beside Splendor. Shortly before the volcano erupts, Starflight and Glory free her. She was terrified, her scales an acid green with fear, and screams that there is lava coming through the walls when cracks appear from the lava and they are all going to die. She ignores Starflight and Glory's attempts to calm her. Despite all the shock, she survives and makes it back to the rainforest.
