"Magnificent's main problem is that she's forgetful. She can never remember what she's agreed to do or what's going on in the tribe or who asked her for what, and she doesn't really care."
Kinkajou to Glory about Magnificent, The Hidden Kingdom

Magnificent is an adult female RainWing who was introduced in The Hidden Kingdom. She was one of the six former RainWing queens before Glory ascended the throne and currently resides within the Rainforest Kingdom. She was notorious for being one of the most forgetful RainWing queens during her reign.

Description[]

Magnificent has friendly, sleepy-looking green eyes.[1] She is as large as Coral and is adorned with several garlands of white dragonfly-wing flowers.[2] She typically keeps her scales magenta and her wings purple.[3]

Personality[]

Magnificent reflects negative RainWing stereotypes, as she is careless, selfish,[4] and lazy.[5][6] Kinkajou described her as being forgetful[7] and she had little concern for the fact that several of her subjects were being kidnapped and tortured during her reign,[8] making no efforts to rescue them even when she was frequently reminded of their disappearances by Mangrove.[5] When Glory told her she had found the missing RainWings, she was relieved, not because her subjects were safe, but that Mangrove would stop mentioning their disappearances.[9]

Although lazy and incompetent as a ruler, Magnificent took great care to ensure her success in the RainWing Royal Challenge. As an ambitious queen, she had planned several setups before the challenge, and even when she was accused of cheating with clear evidence, she refused to admit what she had done. She was very defensive of her title, although she neglected her duties. She is easily irritated, and snapped at her fellow queen, Exquisite, for referring to her as "Aunt Maggie."[6]

Biography[]

The Dragonet Prophecy[]

The Hidden Kingdom

When Glory approached Magnificent with Mangrove about the missing RainWings, Magnificent did not 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, likely attempting to shut her up. This led to Glory finding the secret home of the NightWings as well as the captive RainWings.

Glory came before Magnificent once more and told her to rescue the captive members of her tribe, but the queen refused, not caring and saying that they all wanted a rest. Enraged, Glory challenged her for the RainWing throne. Surprised but intrigued, Magnificent accepted the challenge, although she clearly felt contempt for the younger dragon.

However, according to RainWing tradition, queen-ship would be decided by a tribe skill-based activity instead of a battle to the death. According to Handsome, that was the way they had done it for years. For her challenges, Magnificent chose to compete in five contests in teams. 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. Glory, assuming this would happen, chose Kinkajou, Tamarin, Mangrove, and Jambu.

Glory finding Magnificent

Magnificent and Glory competed together in the camouflage contest. Glory found Magnificent disguised as a bunch of bananas in a fruit stand by following the gaze of the crowd of dragons. When Glory hid, Magnificent scared Glory's sloth, Silver, into making a beeline for Glory's hiding place, causing Magnificent to win the round. She set up a stash of fruit to help Dazzling win the fruit gathering contest (although Dazzling lost anyway, due to her eating some of the fruits) and had Exquisite's sloths choke Jambu in the treetop race. Despite her cheating, she lost when Grandeur forfeited after learning Glory was the true heir to the RainWing throne.
The Dark Secret
Magnificent was mentioned when Starflight realized Glory was right and that Magnificent was wrong about the RainWings being in awful danger.
