Xadia

In General

Anti-Human Alliance: Xadia is ruled by intelligent dragons and six different kinds of elves who are opposed to the human kingdoms.
In Harmony with Nature: The different types of elves and dragons are naturally connected to one of the Primal Sources like magical creatures are. This is why they can use Primal Magic without needing a Primal Stone, unlike humans (save with Dark Magic).
We ARE Struggling Together: The elves and dragons are not a unified faction. Much like the human kingdoms, each type of elf generally works separately, while the dragons have individual kings united under a Dragon King. As such, the Sunfire Elves work completely separate from the Fire Dragons that appeared near Katolis border towns in season 2, with the elves specifically fighting Amaya because they built a secret base in their territory within Xadia, rather than an invasion. What the Fire Dragons were doing is unclear, but their appearance only escalated tensions. The Season Four trailer reveals that it was worse in the past, as the archdragons actually fought among themselves to decide who gets to be the new ruler of Xadia, and the elves almost went to war with the dragons.

Elves

Elves In General

Color-Coded for Your Convenience:
- Moonshadow Elves have skin in shades of lilac and purple, generally with a darker purple for their facial markings. They'll typically wear darker shades of blue and cyan and purple.
- Sunfire Elves are brown-skinned with yellow-gold facial markings. They usually wear red, orange and gold.
- Of the Startouch Elves seen, they appear to have blue skin that blends into black-dark purple, adorned with stars to look like the cosmos.
Four-Fingered Hands: Elves have four fingers on each hand. Humans have the usual five fingers. This poses a problem for Rayla when she has to disguise herself as a human. And for Callum when he tries to disguise himself as an elf, but fortunately the few elves he encounters don't take him seriously anyway.
Horned Humanoid: Elves all have a pair of horns on their head, making them look something like a cross between Night Elves and Draenei.
Long-Lived: Implied. Rayla mentions "less-than-a-century life expectancy" as one of the "perks" of being a human.
Muscles Are Meaningless: The elves in general are not portrayed as physically bigger than humans. However, depending on the type of elf, they are capable of superhuman strength, speed, and agility. This is due to their connection to a Primal Source, and a greater abundance of an elf's Primal Energy increases their physical abilities.
Our Elves Are Different: Elves have short horns and four-fingered hands (and four-toed feet) along with the usual pointy ears and lithe build. They are divided into six tribes, each attuned to one of the six sources of magic — the sun, the moon, the stars, the sky, the earth, and the ocean — and become more powerful the more exposed they are to their source. This understanding of/connection to the Arcanum of their specific Primal Source allows them to cast magic related to said Source without needing a Primal Stone, which humans cannot naturally do. Additionally, Startouch Elves are naturally long-lived, with a life span of one thousand years. Most of them also have varying European accents.
- Rayla and the other Moonshadow Elves are fearsome assassins who can hold their own against most human warriors. They also have Scottish accents.
- Skywing Elves may have feathered wings and have English accents.
- Startouch Elves have blueish-purple skin dotted with small white spots resembling stars.
- Sunfire Elves are capable of creating magical weaponry such as blades that remain hot as the moment they are forged for hundreds of years. Additionally, certain Sunfire Elves can draw on their mystical source in specific ways. They also seem to have French accents.
  - Heat-being mode: Where Sunfire Elves draw on the destructive side of their source, gaining volcanic red glowing veins. This enhances their speed and strength, but it amplifies their aggression into a berserker-like state.
  - Light-being mode: A much rarer form that even fewer Sunfire Elves can use. This is a healing ability drawing on the healing and growing side of Sun Magic. Not seen yet, but mentioned by the creators in an interview.
- Tidebound (Ocean) elves have blue-to-teal skin and sport American accents.

Moonshadow Elves

In General

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/silvergrove.png

The Silvergrove

Moon magic draws on the spirit and energy of the Moon, creating illusions, concealment spells, and connections with spirits. The Moon is cyclical in its strength, relating directly to lunar phases. Moon Primal creatures can be private and secretive, and are keenly aware of the power of appearances.

The first type of elves seen in the show, Moonshadow Elves are connected to the Moon arcanum, and their powers wax and wane alongside the celestial body; during the full moon, they temporarily become invisible and gain increased strength and speed. Their culture is very honor-driven, and they place a great deal of importance on oaths and duties; they are famous for their assassins, which are deadly and greatly feared. They live primarily in a number of small communities within the Moonshadow Forest. They have medium-to-light human skin tones, white hair, and curved, unbranched horns; alongside Sunfire Elves, they are the type most physically similar to humans.

Bow and Sword in Accord: They use both. Runaan can take his bow apart and wield the halves as two blades.
Casting a Shadow: They can go into "Moonshadow Mode" which essentially turns them invisible.
Cosmic Motifs: The moon, which symbolizes illusions, death, duality, secrets, and appearance. Many traits that reflect their abilities with illusions and deception, as well as their warriors being highly trained assassins.
Dark Is Not Evil: They are elves who are empowered by the night and are associated with illusions, but they are not [inherently] evil.
Dual Wielding: Wield two short swords. Rayla's swords can also transform into pick-like axes, which she can use for climbing. Runaan's swords can be put together to form a bow.
Facial Markings: Have blue markings. Rayla has one claw on each cheek, and Runaan has two stripes across his nose and cheeks. Lujanne is the only Moonshadow elf thus far not to have any at all.
Horned Humanoid: Their horns grow out of the top sides of their heads and then curve towards the back, with the tip curling upwards.
Invented Linguistic Distinction: Most of them speak with Scottish accents.
Lunacy: The moon is one of the six sources of magic and focuses on the understanding that appearances are deceiving even though they're all we can really know about the world, and on manipulating these appearances in order to alter and control how others perceive things. Moonshadow Elves like Rayla draw their power from the moon and can become semi-invisible during the full moon. Moon mages can even cast illusions so life-like that they can feel real.
Magic Dance: Some Moon magic is activated through dancing.
Master of Illusion: Moon magic prioritizes the use of illusions.
Mix-and-Match Weapon: Fitting of a group that has illusions as their main power, the Moonshadow Elves seem to prefer weapons that have multiple purposes. Rayla's father used a bow that turned into chain-scythes, her mother used a sword that turned into a whip, and Runaan's bow turns into two swords.
Mystical White Hair: All Moonshadow Elves have white hair.
Swiss-Army Weapon: Moonshadow elves specialize in these types of weapons. Each is specifically crafted for each warrior based on preferred fighting styles.
- Rayla uses twin swords that resemble giant butterfly knives that can fold into sickles.
- Runaan, her mentor/surrogate father, uses a bow that can split into dual swords as well.
Super Mode: When bathed in the light of the moon, Moonshadow elves can enter an enhanced state where their skin turns dark grey, their sclerae turn black, and they become almost invisible.

Tiadrin and Lain

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dragonguard.png

Tiadrin voiced by: Ely Jackson (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

Lain voiced by: Tyrone Savage (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

Rayla's parents and members of the Dragonguard, who are believed to have abandoned the Dragon Prince when he was still an egg.

Action Dad: Along with Action Mom. They are Rayla's parents and skilled warriors who are willing to sacrifice their lives to protect the Dragon Queen and her egg. They very nearly killed Viren when he tried to destroy Azymondias while he was still an egg, showing that they clearly earned their position in the Dragonguard.
All There in the Manual: Their names are only mentioned on the official website. They have yet to be called them in the show.
Batman Gambit: When Viren renders them helpless to defend the egg, Tiadrin appeals to Viren's lust for power by telling him that the egg is a great source of magic, successfully convincing him to steal it rather than destroy it.
Battle Couple: They're a married couple that fight together.
Dirty Coward: Rayla (and the audience) believed for the first three seasons that they were this, since they disappeared (alongisde the rest of the Dragonguard) after Avizandum was killed, allowing Viren to steal Zym's egg unopposed. Subverted once Callum uses a Moon spell to recreate their last moments at the Storm Spire, revealing that they were the only ones who didn't flee and put up a Last Stand against Viren, and even if they lost, Tiadrin was still able to trick Viren into taking the egg instead of destroying it, a gambit that paid off big time.
Doting Parent: One of the end credits cards shows them happily playing with Rayla when she was younger.
Guile Hero: While Tiadrin is an exceptional warrior, when the battle is lost she manipulates Viren into taking the egg rather than destroying it. This buys the Dragon Prince some time, and in the end the gamble pays off when it eventually leads to Zym being reunited with his mother.
Hates Being Nicknamed: The official Twitter mentions that Tiadrin dislikes being called "Tia".
Hero with Bad Publicity: They were the only Dragonguard soldiers who didn't abandon Azymondias when he was still an egg, and Tiadrin convinced Viren to spare the egg instead of destroying it, but in the setting's present they're believed to have been cowards who ran from their posts because, due Viren trapping them inside cursed coins, they left no body behind so everybody believed that they ran away.
Mix-and-Match Weapon: Both use these. Lain uses a bow that turns into a kusarigama (chain-scythe), while Tiadrin uses a sword that turns into a segmented whip.
Never Found the Body: One reason why everyone thought they had abandoned their post was that nobody found their bodies.
Only Mostly Dead: To such an extent that Rayla couldn't even find them in the spirit world when she went looking for them. Thus they are more alive than Viren was (whom she did find in the spirit world).
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: They were accused of abandoning Avizandum and his egg, which led to the former's death and the latter's disappearance from Xadia. In truth they were the only members of the Dragonguard who didn't run away, and were seemingly killed fighting Viren to protect the Dragon Prince's egg.
Sir Swears-a-Lot: A female example. According to Word of God, Tiadrin has a foul mouth and enjoys cussing.invoked
Strong Family Resemblance: Strong enough that even Claudia, who knew nothing else about their relationship to Rayla, noticed it.
Undying Loyalty: The duo actually did not abandon Zym when he was still an egg. In fact, they were the only Dragonguard soldiers who stayed.
Whip Sword: Tiandrin's sword has a segmented blade whose segments can detach from each other while being linked by a steel cord, becoming a chain whip.

Runaan

Focused and deadly.

Voiced by: Jonathan Holmes (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

"Tonight, we bind our lives to justice!"

The leader of the Moonshadow Elf assassins.

Abusive Parents: Season 3 revealed that he and Ethari raised Rayla while her parents served in the dragonguard. He's understandably tough on Rayla when they go to assassinate Harrow and Ezran; the abuse part comes when Rayla shows him proof the Dragon Prince is alive, and his response is to order her to continue the mission. While Rayla instigates their fight, Runaan isn't holding back.
Advertised Extra: While originally advertised as a major character, Runaan does not have a big role outside of "Moonrise" and "Cursed Caldera".
Anti-Villain: Runaan is an honorable, dutiful, and (as shown in a flashback) loving and caring Moonshadow elf, who holds that life is precious and shouldn't be taken easily. However, he opposes the trio's attempts to stop Harrow's assassination and ultimately is the one who kills Callum and Ezran's father. To make matters worse, he even aims an arrow at Callum and later even fires a shot at him! Having said that, Runaan isn't malicious or bloodthirsty, and is as much a victim of the cycle of violence as he is a perpetrator, something that he shares with Harrow.
And I Must Scream: Near the end of Season 1, Viren traps Runaan in a coin after failing to interrogate him.
Badass Creed: Whenever Viren tries to coax information out of him, saying how he will die, he always repeats, "I'm already dead."
Bifurcated Weapon: His swords combine to form a bow.
Bow and Sword in Accord: He's proficient both with a bow and melee weapons. His bow actually detaches into his two swords.
Bury Your Gays: Subverted. As of season 3, he is still alive, at least as "alive" as someone can be when turned into a coin.
Dual Wielding: He wields a pair of swords, much like Rayla herself.
Facial Markings: Two blue marks across the bridge of his nose.
Fan Disservice: Runaan is shown to have a muscular and athletic build, courtesy of a few shirtless scenes. However, the fact that said shirtless scenes take place when he's chained to the dungeon wall and growing weaker during his imprisonment is off-putting.
Fantastic Racism: Hates humans with a passion. The fact they killed the Dragon King and presumably the Dragon Prince only adds fuel to that hatred.
Fatal Flaw:
- The whole series kicks off because of his Pride. Even when he sees that the Dragon Prince is alive with his own eyes, he refuses to call off the mission to kill the king, claiming that they need to take revenge on the humans for the Dragon King's death anyway. In the process, he kills a Reasonable Authority Figure who regretted his part in the Dragon King's death and who would have made amends if he'd realized it, letting the person who actually committed those crimes take the throne. (On the other hand, the price of turning down the mission was permanent shunning and losing his hand.)
- Worse than that is his Wrath. He's unable to let go of his hatred for humans with a passion and nearly ruins the one chance either race has at ending the war without bloodshed.
Karmic Transformation: On the one hand, what happened to him is portrayed as profoundly horrifying, and it is. On the other hand this is the same elf that attempted to murder Callum a few episodes prior, led the assassin party that kicked off the series plot, and when presented with the one opportunity to stop the coming war he went out of his way to try to ruin it.
Kick The Son Of A Bitch: On the receiving end of this, thanks to Viren's coin transformation spell.
Happily Married: To his husband Ethari.
Honorary Uncle: He and Ethari are the best friends of Rayla's parents and take her in after they disappeared. But this doesn't stop him from trying to kill Rayla for her betrayal.
Horned Humanoid: Has two long horns curving out from his head. After his assassination of King Harrow, his left horn has been cut down.
Hypocrite: In the first episode, he mentions believing that "life is precious," yet without provocation, tries to kill Callum by shooting an arrow at him, despite knowing that he is unarmed and has good intentions.
Lunacy: Moonshadow Elves draw their power from the moon.
Magic Knight: Has traces of this. Primarily uses his blades for combat, but when he's in a pinch, he can crush a moon opal to cast a spell to conceal his group. He'll also use various other magical items, such as assassin bindings for a ritual, or a shadow hawk to send messages.
Masculine–Feminine Gay Couple: Downplayed with Ethari. Neither one of them is overtly more masculine or feminine looking than the other but Runaan has shown to be ruthless and cold to those not close to him while Ethari is compassionate and empathetic.
Mirror Character: To Viren, Both are on opposite sides of the war, but they both urge their subordinates to commit acts of evil in the name of pragmatism. Notably, Runaan and Viren both admit that killing the innocent princes is evil, but do it anyway in the name of "the greater good".
Mix-and-Match Weapon: His two blades can be put together in a bow.
Mystical White Hair: Like the rest of his kind.
Not Worth Killing: When he realizes Rayla is stalling him from killing Harrow, he leaps past her and heads to the throne room.
Only Mostly Dead: After Viren turned him into a coin. The end credits show that his flower sank to indicate that he died, but season 3 reveals that it didn't sink all the way to the bottom, showing that he isn't completely dead. Also, when Rayla went looking for him in the spirit world, she didn't find him but did find Viren, meaning that he was more alive than Viren.
Out of Focus: Runaan doesn't return in Season 2, spending the entirety of it trapped inside Viren's coin. No reference to him in particular is even made.
Parental Substitute: He and his husband raised Rayla while her parents served in the dragonguard.
Sadistic Choice: When he learns the Dragon Prince is alive, Runaan can either complete the mission and choose war over peace, or stand down the way Rayla did and be exiled permanently from his village and husband. Runaan chooses the former.
Starter Villain: Essentially his role. He is the main antagonist of the first three episodes and kicks off the plot as the leader of the assassins. That said, he's disposed of rather swiftly after the main trio goes on their quest with the dragon egg.
Unwitting Instigator of Doom: His assassinating Harrow allows for Viren to manipulate circumstances and take over the throne. This would later lead to the humans invading Xadia.
Would Hurt a Child: Aims a poison-tipped arrow at Callum before he saw the egg of the Dragon Prince, and then tried to kill Rayla even after he saw it.

Lujanne

Voiced by: Ellie King (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

"If wisdom is what you seek, I shall do my best to fake it. Old illusionist joke."

The Guardian of the Moon Nexus, found on the top of the Cursed Caldera. She is a master illusionist mage.

Affectionate Nickname: Allen calls her "Janey-Lu".
Anti-Advice: She tells Rayla that true trust comes from accepting the dark parts of others that people will never know. Rayla immediately rebukes that trust should be built on truth and there's no real difference between lying to someone and hiding truths. Lujanne says she sounds just like her three ex-husbands.
The Bus Came Back: After the start of season 2, she appears in mid-season 3 to give Ezran help in reaching Xadia from Katolis. She is requested to help by Soren.
Cloud Cuckoolander: Due to being the Guardian, she has very little interaction with anyone besides Phoe-Phoe. In result, she has a bit of an eccentric personality.
A Dog Named "Dog": She has a Moon Phoenix named Phoe-Phoe.
Fake Ultimate Hero: It turns out the miraculous healer was no healer at all but just a master of illusions. She is a magic expert, though, and can provide advice based on that.
Fantastic Racism: Very downplayed, but while she's happy to show Callum around the Moon Nexus and tell him about its history and about her magic, she says that Callum will never truly do magic and shows some friendly condescension when he becomes dejected.
- That said, when she's proven wrong she doesn't react badly and offers him an apology, as well as moon pearls.
Friend to All Living Things: In stark contrast to the rest of the Moonshadow Elves in the first season (who are assassins), Lujanne shows the more positive side of them, using illusions to protect her home rather than violence and showing all living creatures, even humans, respect and love compared to the Fantastic Racism her kind usually has.
Go Mad from the Isolation: Somewhat played with. While she's not particularly as mad as the trope name (just more of a Cloud Cuckoolander), she does imply that she gets very lonely, especially when the children are leaving. The way she interacts with the others also implies that she hasn't had much contact with others in a while. Also, the ending cards show her usually doing activities with illusions of herself.
He Knows Too Much: Any human who discovers the Moon Nexus (without her blessing) will be driven mad by her illusions to keep the nexus secret.
Interspecies Romance: She is an elf and she starts a relationship with Allen, a human.
Lovable Rogue: Lujanne can be dishonest and a little manipulative, and cheerfully admits to driving humans who discover the Nexus mad with her illusions both for protection and possibly amusement. That said, she's far more open-minded toward humans than most Moonshadow elves, has a soft spot for Ellis, and does her best to assist the heroes when she can.
Master of Illusion: She has the power to create illusions and uses it to make the otherwise safe path through the Cursed Caldera a nightmarish place, in order to avoid people coming close.
The Mentor: Subverted, Callum asks her to teach him Moon Magic, she teaches him the basics behind primal magic and some introductory theory, but she won't teach him practical magic because she says humans will never be able to do primal magic without a primal stone. Zig Zagged, in that the things she tells him do eventually lead to him learning to use magic himself. Not to mention her advice allows Callum to hatch Zym when the baby is dying.
Mind Rape: Her illusions cause no real physical damage, but she tells Callum that she can still drive people mad with illusions and that she does it to humans who find out about the Nexus. As shown by Ezran's encounter with the horse in the village outside the Cursed Caldera, she has no compunctions about driving nonhuman animals mad either.
The Obi-Wannabe: She has profoundly wise advice, at least she does her best to fake such advice. She's actually just good at phrasing it. See Anti-Advice above.
Paper Tiger: She turns everything in the Cursed Caldera into this. While the path seems far from safe, it turns out that the giant spiders in it are actually not harmful to anyone and she only makes them seem that way to scare people away. She herself is far from the miraculous healer others believe her to be.
Punny Name: "Lujanne" sounds like "illusion".
Reasonable Authority Figure: She saw a child and a wolf climbing the Caldera and, rather than send illusionary monsters, seemingly healed Ava's missing leg. When said child returns much later, Lujanne explains the illusions to her, two humans, and an elf assassin. She helps them hatch Zym, and houses them for several days until the boys and Rayla need to leave for Xadia. Later, she lends her phoenix to help Ezran fly to Xadia when he needs to get there fast.
Serial Spouse: She mentions that Rayla, when saying silly things like "strong relationships need a foundation of truth and honesty, not blind acceptance of important truths being kept hidden," sounds like her first three husbands.
Silver Vixen: Appears middle-aged, has had three prior marriages, but is still quite attractive, managing to catch the eye of the human Allen, whom she's currently dating.
Supreme Chef: Subverted. She appears to cook a large supper for the main team, and they are impressed by it, but she reveals they are just eating worms from the mountain, which she turned into illusions of great food. Ezran and Callum are bothered by it, but Ellis isn't.
Technical Pacifist: Why kill someone when you can dive them mad with illusions?
Troll: When she returns to the Moon Nexus by foot, she disguises herself as a human and plans to mess with some of them. The end credits reveal one man is smitten with her.

Ethari

Voiced by: Vincent Gale (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

Runaan's husband, Ethari is a blacksmith and mage that works with the assassins.

Broken Tears: One of the ending cards in season 1, episode 8 (in which Runaan gets turned into a coin) shows Ethari crying over a small pond with his hand to his mouth. In Season 3, it is revealed that this had happened as Runaan's flower sank.
Early-Bird Cameo: He shows up in two post credit cards in season one before being properly introduced in season 3.
Failed a Spot Check: He doesn't realize that Runaan's flower isn't fully sunken or that its light has gone off, but it's blinking and slightly sunken, meaning he's alive and in trouble.
Happily Married: To Runaan.
Honorary Uncle: He and Runaan were the best friends of Rayla's parents and took her in after they disappeared.
Masculine–Feminine Gay Couple: Downplayed with Runaan. Neither one is more masculine or feminine looking than the other, but Ethari has shown to be kind and compassionate while Runaan is more ruthless and spiteful.
Parental Substitute: Besides Runaan, Ethari also served as a significant parental figure towards Rayla.
Reasonable Authority Figure: While at first, he thinks Rayla ran away from her mission and Runaan, he sees her with a human in the reflection who demands an answer for the shunning. Ethari goes to Rayla, casts a spell that allows them to talk, and hears her out. When he finds out Rayla and Callum have the Dragon Prince, who is alive and well, he agrees to send a message to the Dragon Queen. While Ethari doesn't know if Rayla will be welcomed back, he wishes her and Callum luck.
Ultimate Blacksmith: He has created the magic pendant that Runaan uses as well as Runaan and Rayla's high-grade weapons, which were shown to be fantastic. When he appears in season 3, his home is full of weapons, and he's shown to be skilled in constructing magical items.

Kim'dael

^{Click here to see her hooded}

Voiced by: Laara Sadiq (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

An ancient Moonshadow Elf who uses the blood of others to prolong her life by consuming it in a ritual held during a harvest moon; or, as it is also known as, a Bloodmoon.

Antagonist Title: She is the antagonist of the graphic novel, Bloodmoon Huntress.
Black Sheep: She's by far the most reviled member of the Moonshadow Elves, seen as a disgrace by her people due to her vile blood harvests.
Blood Magic: She uses the blood of others to extend her own life.
Can't Kill You, Still Need You: She captures Janai, rather than killing her, because Janai knows the location of the sun seed. When Janai reveals that only she can free Kim'dael from her debt, Kim'dael releases her.
Card-Carrying Villain: Delights in the act of taking others' blood and when Runaan calls her a disgrace to the Moonshadow elves, she simply says she doesn't care.
Chained by Fashion: Wears a collar adorned with a chain with a gem on the end, revealed in The Queen's Mercy to have been placed there long ago by Queen Aditi when Kim'dael tried to trick her into granting her sanctuary. Should she ever kill one of Aditi's lineage, the collar will slowly tighten and choke the life from her, not unlike the bindings of Moonshadow assassins, indebting Kim'dael to serve the line until one of them sets her free.
Evil Brit: Kim'dael is one of the few unambiguously evil characters in the show and so obviously has a British accent to help convey that.
Exotic Eye Designs: Highlighting how monsterous she is, her eyes lack pupils and are just pure sanguine red.
Femme Fatalons: She conjures long red nails with her blood magic to use as her main weapon.
Know When to Fold 'Em: She releases Janai when the latter points out that she's the only one who can release Kim'dael from her debt and that her choker will kill her if Janai dies as Amaya will kill Karim in revenge, ending the bloodline.
Last of Her Kind: Is the only survivor of her Bloodmoon Elves cult thanks to Sunfire Elf Queen Aditi's protection.
Magic Knight: She is a pretty straightforward example of this trope, as she's both a mage and a capable fighter. In fact, she relies on a pretty powerful synergy between magic and melee that nearly overwhelms Runaan, the leader of the assassins. In Season 5, she overwhelms nearly every force set against her, and Janai is only able to get the upper hand temporarily.
No-Nonsense Nemesis: When she attacks Janai, she doesn't waste time talking and uses her magic at the first opportunity, only stopping when informed that only Janai knows where the Sunseed she's looking for is.
One-Woman Army: She takes out an entire squad of Sunfire Elf guards without breaking a sweat, and defeats Janai in single combat soon after, though not without some effort.
Our Vampires Are Different: She is the setting's closest equivalent of a vampire, drinking blood to keep herself young and to empower her Blood Magic.
Psycho for Hire: She is indebted to Queen Aditi and her heirs until such time as they choose to release her. In the present, she is recruited by the exiled Prince Karim to steal the Sun Seed from his sister, with the promise of releasing her. She immediately abandons him when Janai reveals that the spell can only be broken by the ruling Sunfire monarch, meaning Karim doesn't have the power to do so.
Red Is Violent: In contrast to most Moon Mages, Kim'dael, and likely the rest of the Cult of the Blood Moon, is associated heavily with the color red, to signify their connection to blood.
Scary Teeth: Has jigsaw teeth that underline her evilness.
Spontaneous Weapon Creation: Can create a magical red blade from her finger, likely through blood magic.
Would Hurt a Child: Is perfectly willing to sacrifice children in her ritual and almost killed Rayla by throwing her off a waterfall.

Skywing Elves

In General

Innean

Sky magic draws on the vast sky, the energy and movement of the winds, and the power of thunderstorms. Creatures connected to the Sky Primal are typically quick and clever and prize the freedom to make their own choices in life.

Elves connected to the Sky arcanum. They have skintones in various shades of grey and blue-gray, hair in shades from dark gray to electric blue, and unbranched horns that come in a variety of shapes. A small number additionally have feathered wings growing from their backs.

Amazing Technicolor Population: Their skin color ranges from blueish-gray to a dark gray.
Blow You Away: They specialize in sky magic, which includes the wind.
Facial Markings: Their markings range from light gray to white.
Fragile Speedster: Sky mages typically prefer to wear light armor to allow for freedom of movement. This allows them to be very quickly, though with the drawback that they are more vulnerable to attack.
Horned Humanoid: Their horns are on the sides of their heads and curve towards the back, with the tip curling up.
Invented Linguistic Distinction: The three we have seen so far have English accents, though from different regions of England.
Kung-Fu Wizard: Sky mages tend to be this, according to the Art of the Dragon Prince. They can magically enhance their speed and can perform incredible feats of agility.
Shock and Awe: Lightning magic is another of their areas of expertise.
Winged Humanoid: 1-in-10 Skywing Elves are born with wings that grow from their lower back. Talented Sky mages however can conjure "mage wings" which transform their arms into wings, but this is apparently even rarer than just being born with them.

Nyx

Naimi-Selari-Nykantia "Nyx"

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tdp_nyx.png

Voiced by: Rhona Rees (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

A Skywing Elf thief the group encounters near the Midnight Desert.

Animal Companion: Has one who's about a quarter-mile high.
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: She puts on a charming act and offers invaluable help in Rayla and Callum's journey, but has no qualms with stealing Zym to bring him home and get a reward from his mother.
The Bus Came Back: Returns in Book 5 as Villads first mate on The Ruthless, though there's some debate between her, him, (and his parrot), over whether or not she owns the ship.
Horned Humanoid: She has two pairs of horns—one short, one longer and curving.
I Owe You My Life: After attempting to betray Callum and Rayla, she's saved by them, specifically Rayla, from a swarm of Soulfangs. Afterwards, she genuinely helps them on their journey.
Known Only by Their Nickname: Nyx's full name is Naimi Selari Nykantia.
Laser-Guided Karma: Her duplicitous behavior lands her in a nest full of Soulfangs with a busted wing.
Loveable Rogue: She does kidnap Zym but she still intends to return him to his mother (while hoping for a reward). She also leaves Callum and Rayla in the safe oasis. When Rayla saves her from the Soulfang Serpents she is sincerely grateful.
Shipper on Deck: For Callum and Rayla. She immediately assumes they're a couple by asking if they want two separate blankets or one to share. The latter of which she states in a suggestive manner.
Shipper with an Agenda: Clearly she was hoping they'd be distracted by romance so that she could kidnap Zym. At the conclusion of the next episode she leaves them alone when it becomes clear they're having a moment, implying she does genuinely think they make a cute couple.
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Apparently she is afraid of Soulfang Serpents.
Winged Humanoid: She has feathered wings coming out of her lower back.

Ibis

Voiced by: Ian James Corlett (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

A Skywing Elf mage who guards the Dragon Queen.

A Death in the Limelight: Zigzagged. Ibis gets a bit of character exploration in the season 4 episode "Fallen Stars," in revealing he is a legendary master Sky mage. The next episode, "Breathtaking," has him demonstrate far more of his skills than in season 3, defeating Claudia in a close battle before he is stabbed from behind by Terry, using his final breath to send a warning about Aaravos.
Determinator: Despite being stabbed clean through the abdomen, he finds the strength to drag himself from the Dragon Queen's lair to the pinnacle of the Storm Spire and use his last breath to send a message of warning.
Deus Exit Machina: Ibis is a seemingly-young, very understanding, and legendarily powerful Sky mage whose powers would be of great use in delaying Aaravos's return. He is killed by Terri after defeating and reluctantly preparing to kill Claudia to prevent this fate, keeping the heroes at a disadvantage against two dark mages.
Dying Curse: He uses his last breath to cast a spell to warn Zubeia about Aaravos' return.
Forgotten Fallen Friend: Discussed. After the group receives his warning, Rayla comments on not knowing his name. When Callum exasperatedly reminds her that he was the Sky mage that fought with them to protect Zym and taught Callum the wing spell that saved Rayla's life, she clarifies that she remembered Ibis as a person, just not his name.
Gondor Calls for Aid: Ibis goes to request help from the other elves in Xadia.
Heroic Build: As seen in the image here and in the credits, Ibis is shown to be in incredible shape, with strong arms and a lean, muscular physique. It's entirely justified, as flying with wings as arms would require a Sky mage to have strong shoulders, back, and core. Canon material also described Sky mages as excellent acrobats, justifying this build even further.
Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Is stabbed through the abdomen by Terry when the Earthblood elf acts to save his girlfriend Claudia from being killed by him.
Last Episode, New Character: Downplayed, but he does appear in "Hearts Of Cinder", which is two episodes before the finale of Season 3.
Meaningful Name: An ibis is a species of wetland bird.
Power Tattoo: The runes on his arms facilitate the use of his mage wings spell.
Reasonable Authority Figure: Takes humans being at the home of the Dragon Queen in stride, and is patient with Callum's questioning, and quickly rethinks his position on humans not being able to learn primal magic when Callum demonstrates indisputable proof that this thinking is inaccurate. Later, he advises Callum to flee with the Dragon Prince into Xadia, while he goes to see how far Viren's army is. When Callum says they're going to stay and fight, Ibis says they'll need help.
Stunned Silence: When Callum shows he can use magic and has learned the Sky Arcanum, Ibis's reaction is to stay quiet staring at him bug-eyed for a few seconds.
Supernatural Martial Arts: Not all of his magic relies on drawing runes and speaking draconic. While fighting Claudia, he is able to spin around and use acrobatic motions to generate wind-based spells.
Support Party Member: Unlike others, he doesn't fight directly during the battle in Storm Spire, but flies around gathering support from nearby armies that can lend a hand. Key art for season 3 does show him leaping into battle alongside Soren, however.
Threshold Guardians: Serves as one for Callum, arguing that he and the group should leave with Zym rather than face Viren's army. A non-malevolent example; when Callum tells him they intend to fight, he goes to find reinforcements for the coming battle.
Winged Humanoid: He isn't one naturally, unlike Nyx, but can conjure wings using the runes on his arms (see Power Tattoo above). Unlike Nyx, whose wings are on her back, his spell turns his arms into wings.

Suroh

A young Skywing Elf Rayla met as a child, whose family was captured and nearly sacrificed by Kim'dael, the Bloodmoon Huntress.

Abnormal Limb Rotation Range: He was able to escape the ropes the Huntress tied him up with because his fingers are double jointed, allowing him to slip his bonds.
Slipped the Ropes: How he managed to meet Rayla in the first place. His double-jointed fingers let him escape from the ropes the Bloodmoon Huntress tied him and his parents up with.

Sunfire Elves

In General

Lux Aurea

Sun magic draws from the heat and energy of the Sun. Sun magic has a dual nature: it can conjure spells of light, growth, nurturing and transformation — or it can call upon fire, heat, and destruction. Sun-connected creatures are often intense and charismatic and make natural leaders.

Elves connected to the Sun arcanum. Some can enter a superpowered state where their body becomes fire-hot, their skin becomes covered in glowing cracks, and they gain increased speed and strength and an immunity to fire at the cost of entering a berserker rage. They live in a highly regimented and organized society under a single monarch, and are famous for both their military, which frequently clashes with those of the human kingdoms, and for their smiths, who can create swords that remain eternally as hot as when they were forged. They live primarily within a walled city called Lux Aurea. They have skin and hair in dark human shades, and brown, unbranched horns; alongside moon shadow elves, they are the type most physically similar to humans.

Cosmic Motifs: Are connected to Sun Arcanum, symbolizing many qualities such as energy, intensity, warmth, charisma, leadership and guiding light. Fitting for a race of powerful warriors that live in the most prominent city seen thus far in Xadia and the first with an established (and active) royal family.
City of Gold: The Sunfire captial of Lux Aurea is a gleeming city adorned with gold. However two years after the corruption of the sunseed, much of it has begun to be Reclaimed by Nature.
Facial Markings: Their facial markings appear as gold whenever they walk through fire (which they seem to be immune to) or become angry.
Horned Humanoid: Their horns are shown to be on the top of their heads, curving upward.
Hulking Out: When angered, their gold skin markings show up, they gain increased physical strength, and their voices drop to guttural growls.
Immune to Fire: When Sunfire Elves enter their superpowered state, they become immune to damage from heat and can walk unharmed through flames.
Invented Linguistic Distinction: They speak with African French accents.
Knight Templar: They have a borderline fanatical obsession with "purity" and light, which they use to judge pretty much everyone and everything.
Light 'em Up: Their magic is overtly specialised in light, though only a few can go into a "light mode" to heal themselves.
Nice, Mean, and In-Between: The Sunfire Elf royalty display this dynamic. Janai is an honourable warrior who eventually came to respect and love her rival, Amaya, and proved to be a Reasonable Authority Figure during a crisis, Khessa is a prideful Queen and openly contemptuous of humanity who died triggering a trap set by Aaravos, due to her arrogance, and Karim, while capable of being polite and respectful, ultimately plotted against his remaining sister out of fear that Sunfire Elf tradition was being compromised under her rule.
Out of the Inferno: They are Immune to Fire and in fact it strengthens them, so this happens a couple of times, particularly in Janai's case, although Kazi seems to prefer a less-dramatic entrance. Because they are derived from Sunfire magic, when Viren turns his army into seemingly mindless, violent monsters, they also share this fire immunity. Pity they're not immune to regular arrows, though.
Playing with Fire: Fire, heat, and light are shown to be their specialty.
The Power of the Sun: They use the Sunforge to channel energy from the sun to create powerful weapons and armor.
Spotlight-Stealing Squad: Of all the six kind of elves, they're easily the ones with the most focus, having a large number of named, important characters, a lot of time dedicated to flesh out their history and culture, they play a big role in seasons 2 and 3 and have their own subplot in seasons 4 and 5. Compare them to the rest of the elves, who only play (collectively) a major role in one season at best and have one or maybe two major characters to their name.
Stern Sun Worshippers: Their society revolves around the power of the sun. They use the Light from the Sunforge to detect the purity of others', particularly humans', intentions - while Amaya comes out unscathed because she has a pure heart, it's implied she could have been blinded or worse if she failed the test. Viren, on the other hand, is sentenced to be purified of his dark magic, which Janai believes would leave very little left of him.
Super Mode: Some Sunfire elves can enter an augmented state called "heat-being mode", changing their appearance to sport Volcanic Veins, glowing yellow irises, and black sclerae; and gives them augmented strength, durability, and immunity to flames.

Janai

^{Click here to see her in Book 4}

Voiced by: Rena Anakwe (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

A Sunfire Elf commander and the younger sister of Queen Khessa.

All There in the Manual: Her name was announced from the official twitter before it is revealed in Season 3.
Amazonian Beauty: Janai is a tall, physically fit, warrior with graceful Elven features.
Big "NO!": She shouts a heartbreaking one when Aaravos kills her sister Khessa.
Big Sister Worship: Janai has a deep respect and love for her older sister, and she is utterly devastated when witnessing her death.
Birthday Hater: Downplayed, but according to the official site, Janai wasn't fond of her birthday festivities but became fond of them due to her sister's insisitence.
Bling of War: Her armor is golden with sunstones worked into it, and she wears her crown into battle.
Burning with Anger: When she's particularly worked up, her skin cracks, becomes extremely hot, and reveals lines of magma.
Dreadlock Warrior: An extremely strong warrior, she has red dreadlocks.
Fiery Redhead: Literally. You could say she has a hot temper.
Flat Character: In Season 2. She doesn't get much characterization in her two appearances during the second season besides being a talented fighter and strategist, being able to keep General Amaya on the ropes after luring her and her troops into an ambush. She discards this in Season 3.
Foe Romance Subtext: With General Amaya. At the end of Season 3, they're holding hands. Earlier, when Callum asks who Amaya's friend is, Janai blurts out "She's not my friend, she is my prisoner!" Amaya then signs to Callum and Ezran, "She thinks I'm cute but she's not admitting it yet."
Foil: She's essentially what Amaya would be if she were an elf. Where Amaya wears blue and silver and favors using a huge shield, Janai wears red and gold and favors a big sword. The two are both honorable warriors and have a shared trauma of losing their older Queen sisters due to Viren, and end up bonding over it.
I Am Not Left-Handed: During her second fight with Amaya, Amaya manages to disarm her of her Sunfire sword. Cue the Volcanic Veins and Super-Strength.
I Owe You My Life: Part of the reason why she formed a bond with Amaya is the latter saved her from falling into a volcano even though both were on opposite sides of the war.
Official Couple: Graduates to this with Amaya in Book 4, with the series premiere seeing her propose to the general.
Punny Name: Janai is a homonym with "ja nai", a Japanese suffix usually used to deny something or indicate negativity. She guards the passage into Xadia, blocking humans.
Reasonable Authority Figure:
- More so than her sister. She takes Amaya alive, protects her from being executed, and later releases her temporarily to fight Viren when Ibis calls for help.
- In season 4 she takes a human architect to trial for extinguishing a ceremonial candle commemorating the recently deceased - a severe insult to Sunfire elf religious practices. The architect is found guilty but although the traditional punishment is death, Janai spares her and instead assigns her to help build a shrine for candles to burn freely without endangering the refugee camp's tents, which is the architect's original reasoning for objecting to the candle.
Royals Who Actually Do Something: She's a princess, a warrior and she takes up a more active role in season 3.
Ship Tease: With Amaya. They both have similar personalities that help them form a bond. Amaya comforts Janai when the latter loses her sister to Aaravos. In fact, Amaya signed to Callum that Janai "thinks she's cute but won't admit it". They hold hands when meeting the Dragon Queen and Devon Giehl confirmed both are gay and "are feeling a sort of way about each other".invoked Come season 4, the two have been in a relationship and Janai proposes to her.
Super-Strength: When she loses her Hot Blade, she reveals Volcanic Veins and gains the strength to punch through stone.
Sweet Tooth: Downplayed. According to the official site, Janai likes "sweets that aren't too sweet" and dislikes "sweets that are too sweet".
Took a Level in Kindness: In Season 4, a great part of Janai's cold nature is gone and her anger issues are almost non-existent.
Tsundere: She and Amaya may be Fire-Forged Friends, but the former won't admit it.
Janai: We are not... friends. She is my prisoner.
Amaya: (signing) She thinks I'm cute but won't admit it yet.
Unstoppable Rage: When she starts showing Volcanic Veins, she becomes more reckless in her fighting, but also more powerful as she easily punches through rock.
Volcanic Veins: As part of her Unstoppable Rage.
Warrior Princess: In season 3, it's confirmed she is also the younger sister of the queen of the Sunfire Elves.
Worthy Opponent: She sees Amaya as one and even vouches for her in the Queen's court, claiming that she had a warrior's honor. Amaya saving her life probably sealed it.

Karim

Voiced by: Luc Roderique (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

The prince of the Sunfire Elves and the younger brother of Khessa and Janai. Traditionalist and conservative, he views Janai's marriage to Amaya and acceptance of humans into Sunfire society as a threat to Sunfire beliefs and way of life.

Arc Villain: Of the Sunfire Elf subplot that begins in Book 4.
Ambiguous Start of Darkness: Janai proposing to Amaya and the incident with the Soul Candle may have been the final straws, but the Reflection story, After Darkness, shows he harboured resentment for humanity long before then.
Didn't Think This Through: While he was betting on her refusing to fight him, he didn't seem to put much thought into challenging Janai, a hightly skilled and fire resistant warrior, to a duel to the death when all he has going for him is fire magic. The fight doesn't last long once she gets serious.
Dramatically Missing the Point: A recurring fault of his.
- During the failed reclamation of Lux Aurea he and a human warrior lose a mutual friend to the corruption, but rather then see their shared pain, and that his purification spell doesn't work, Karim instead explodes at her for killing their friend, saying that humanity has no right to be there, ignoring that his friend had turned and that he valued the human as a companion as well.
- When Janai first shows him the sunseed, his sister explaining how it will ensure a foundation for future generations of Sunfire elves to rebuild upon, all he can take away from the experience is that he won't live long enough to witness their kingdom's revival.
- Out of fear that his people's culture will be overrun via interaction with the humans, Karim invokes the Duel of Blood and Ash, which is a tradition outlawed by his own grandmother. He doesn't realize that this is a clear example of his people's culture changing in the past, with the rest of it remaining largely untouched, and arguably for the better.
- After his audience with Sol Regem, Karim believes all he has to do is heal the blind dragon's eyes and body to make him whole again, failing to realize from his speech that it's Sol's spirit that's in need of revitalization.
Early-Bird Cameo: He makes his first appearance in the short story The Queen's Soul before appearing in the series proper.
Evil Reactionary: Descends into this in Book 5, being willing to sacrifice his peoples new future, by stealing the Sun Seed to restore Sol Regem as King of the Dragons and return the Sunfire Elves to his idealised image of their past glory, because he refuses to accept one where humanity is a part of it.
Fatal Flaw: Two:
- Impatience. His wish to see the Sunfire Elves regain their prosperity sooner, rather than later as Janai would have it (in accordance with the gradual return of the power of their magic over generations), leads him to try and seize the throne by force before his allies can consolidate, causing them to turn against him when he loses his honor duel with Janai.
- Presumptiveness: He's convinced that Janai's decisions will lead to the end of the Sunfire Elves, that his allies will follow him in deposing her as queen, and that Janai won't even want to fight. In practice, absolutely none of these things turn out to be true, and the elves do not even require him to die for the duel to end. It shows up again in Book 5 as he assumes that he has the power to release Kim'dael from her debt curse, unaware that only the actual ruler of Lux Aurea (Janai) can do that until she points it out to him.
The Fundamentalist: His belief in tradition stretches straight into this, as rather than be welcoming of others and prepared to help his culture move on and be inclusive, he demands all things stay the same. Most blatant is his use of the Duel of Blood and Ash. Not only is the duel a tradition outlawed by his grandmother, but it only was in place because at some point in the past a warrior challenged the reigning ruler to stop a war, and had no basis in religion or any belief beyond actual stated history. In spite of this distinction, he still ignores it being illegal, rationalizing that no ruler can declare it illegal.
Good Old Ways: He possesses a strong appreciation for Sunfire Elf customs and traditions. For example, he prefers to greet his sister with "Suns first", an archaic Sunfire version of "good morning." This traditionalist mindset sadly results in conflict between him and his more forward thinking sister, as the loss of Lux Aurea has made him overprotective of their culture, to the point he can't stomach any compromise or perceived disrespect to their customs. This is arguably deconstructed as his stubborn insistence on sticking to the old ways alienates him from Janai, her followers and the human refugees at her camp, to the point where Janai's guards don't even hesitate to arrest him after he loses the Duel of Blood and Ash.
It's All About Me: He shows signs of this as he feels that he would make a better ruler than his sister despite showing poor leadership skills, he only shows pride for the Sunfire tradtions when they benefit him and any tragedy that befalls him personally is automatically more important than what's happened to others.
Maligned Mixed Marriage: How he sees Janai's engagement to Amaya in Book 4, although it's a Downplayed Trope in that his disapproval is less with Amaya (whom he actually likes well enough), and more with the timing of the engagement so soon after recent strife.
Moral Myopia: He derides humanity for their "weakness" in unleashing Dark Magic, but he thinks nothing of using Kim'dael against his own people to achieve his aims.
Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist: He conspires against his sister to seize the throne, but only because he believes her ways will lead to the end of Sunfire Elf culture, but it becomes increasingly obvious he's more motivated by his ego.
Slowly Slipping Into Evil: In Book 5, his growing desperation to realize his ambitions and rapidly dwindling support and resources causes him to take more and more extreme measures to oppose his sister, ultimately culminating in him freeing an infamous assassin and promising to free her from her magic choker if she kills Janai.
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: To Viren, as he's also a Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist mage who claims to seek a brighter future for his people, but it becomes clear that he's more motivated by his It's All About Me attitude than any good intentions while Slowly Slipping Into Evil.
Tragic Keepsake: The single red glove he wears belonged to a childhood friend of his who died in the failed reclamation of Lux Aurea.
Tragic Villain: Karim wanted to protect his people's culture, but he was so obsessed with what the Sun Elves had already lost, it blinded him to what could be gained with further cooperation with humanity, leading him to turn against his sister, after he learned from her they would never live to see their kingdom restored.
Underestimating Badassery: He thought Janai would refuse to accept his challenge of a duel for the throne, since she never wanted to be queen, and that she would take the excuse to abdicate in his favor. Though it's quickly pointed out to him that she might not, he still assumes his magical skill will allow him to prevail, for some reason believing that he's stronger than the best warrior in Lux Aurea. When Janai agrees to the duel, he gets about a minute to show off before she stops playing around and delivers a Curb-Stomp Battle to him instead.
Villainous Breakdown: Being defeated, but not killed, in his duel with Janai causes him to break down into ranting about their "history," even as he is arrested.

Khessa

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tdp_sunfirequeen.png

Voiced by: Brenda Crichlow (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

Janai's sister and the former queen of the Sunfire Elves.

All There in the Manual: Her name is only given in the online side material.
Asshole Victim: With her arrogance, hatred for humans, and penchant for torture, it's hard to feel sympathy when she dies. The tragedy in the scene focuses on Janai having to see her sister die, rather than the death itself.
Benevolent Boss: She, of all people is shown to be this. Callum describes her in his spellbook as a fair ruler, and is briefly worried when Aaravos uses a dark magic spell on her soldiers.
Break the Haughty: Before Aaravos killed her, he whispers something to her about what happened to her grandmother. Whatever it was, it greatly distraught her.
Character Death: She's killed by Aaravos when he and Viren invade Lux Aurea.
Face Death with Dignity: Subverted. She remains defiant even when it's obvious that Aaravos is about kill her. However, Aaravos then whispers something into her ear that the audience can't hear (presumably, what happened to her grandmother Aditi), which leaves her horrified just before Aaravos kills her.
False Reassurance: She tells Viren not to worry, as the purification ritual will only burn away the parts of him that are corrupt. Janai had previously told Amaya that the ritual will likely not leave anything of Viren left.
Fantastic Racism: She has a really low opinion on humans and whenever the chance, she likes to put them through the light test in order to harm them for fun.
Fatal Flaw: Arrogance, as called out by Aaravos, which makes her predictable. When she meets Viren, she can't help herself but to put him through the light test and then attempt to purify him in a way that would harm him to confirm her hatred for humans, which is exactly what Aaravos is planning, because it gives his familiar access to the power of the Sunfire Forge.
Laser-Guided Karma: She brings Viren to the Sunforge to burn him to death, but Aaravos turns the tables and then immolates her himself.
Light Is Not Good: She's a golden and white dressed Sunfire Elf who goes around pointing a purifying light at people and yet she's hateful and arrogant.
No Body Left Behind: She is killed by Aaravos essentially burning her into cinders which blow away in the wind, leaving no body left behind.

Kazi

Voiced by: Ashleica Edmond (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

A scholar of the Sunfire Elves that is capable of communicating with Amaya using sign language, and becomes the interpreter for her and Janai.

Ambiguous Gender: It's unclear what gender Kazi goes by, if any. Their page on the show's website describes them with static pronouns implying that Kazi is non-binary.
Cunning Linguist: Kazi says that they were the "top of [their] class at linguistics" and serves as Amaya's interpreter when Janai interrogates her.
Cute Bookworm: They are very shy in an endearing way, and giddily talk about how they used to hide in the book drop of the Lux Aurea library so they could read in solitude and after closing hour.
Foil To Janai, mainly for the audience's sake. They quickly show that not all sun elves are imposing, stoic warriors like the ones we've seen so far.
Rump Roast: Kazi accidentally stands too close to the wall of the fire ring when Janai is interrogating Amaya, resulting in them yelping in pain and jumping forward as the flames singe their backside.
The Smart One: They figure out which sign language Amaya is using from a casual description by Janai.
Smart People Wear Glasses: Kazi is a scholar and the only elf seen wearing glasses so far.

Pharos

^{Click here to see him in Book 5}

The former priest of Lux Aurea, and Prince Karim's loyal retainer and attendant.

Demonic Possession: Aaravos possessed him when his familiar bite him, and used him as a conduit to corrupt the Sunforge and kill Queen Khessa.
The Dragon: He serves as Karim's right hand and most loyal supporter, and his only supporter as of the end of Book 4.
Even Evil Has Standards: As much as he wants to help Karim claim the Sunfire throne, even he thinks enlisting Kim'dael's help is going too far, if only for how dangerous and unstable she is.
Tainted Veins: His veins around his neck glow blue, seemingly a lingering effect from his possession by Aaravos. He keeps them hidden beneath a high collar.
Undying Loyalty: He is defined primarily by his unwavering loyalty towards Karim, to the point that, following Karim's defeat in Book 4, he willingly follows his prince into exile even after the rest of Karim's supporters abandon him.
Unexplained Recovery: Returns in Book 5 after his last appearance in Book 3 saw him bitten by the Star Caterpillar and being possessed by Aaravos. How he survived the ordeal and Lux Aurea's fall has yet to be told, but the lingering wound from the bite suggests nothing good.

Miyana

One of the Six Horns of Lux Aurea, the senior generals of the Sunfire Elves army, and Karim's lover and confidant.

The Confidant: She's the one Karim confides his plans to during season 4.
Defecting for Love: At the end of season five, she gives Karim the Sun Seed that will heal Sol Regem's body, along with an army of Sunfire Elves ready to install Karim as King.
Forbidden Romance: Her relationship with Karim is apparently not allowed, according to her in "Rex Igneous".
The Paragon Always Rebels: Downplayed since we don't know enough about her to know if she qualifies as a paragon, other than being one of the Six Horns, but when she defects she is able to get a significant number of Sunfire Elf soldiers to defect with her.
Rebellious Rebel: She shows a great deal of reluctance to go along with Karim's plan to overthrow Janai through a royal blood duel in season four, pointing out the flaws that Karim seems to be ignoring. As season five shows, she has no problem with actually overthrowing Janai, she just wants to do it smartly, like organizing an army and have a force multiplier like a healed Sol Regem at their side.

Earthblood Elves

In General

The Drakewood

Earth magic draws on the power and energy within the land itself. Earth magic comes from two major domains: the stone, minerals, crystals, and gems of the land, and the flora and fauna of the living world. Creatures connected to the Earth are patient, sometimes stubborn, and care deeply about the history and balance of the natural world.

Elves connected to the Earth arcanum. Their horns are branching antlers.

Brief Accent Imitation: When masquerading as an Earthblood Elf, Callum puts on a Cockney accent which, judging from Rayla's reaction, is just as wrong as her hillbilly accent was when impersonating a human. As revealed in Season 4, real Earthblood elves have Australian accents for the most part.
Green Thumb: Their magic involves communing with plants in the Uncharted Forest, and they have limited ability to influence plant growth.
Horned Humanoid: Like many elves, they have horns, in their case resembling antlers or curving ram horns.
Invented Linguistic Distinction: Contrary to Callum's Cockney impersonation, the real Earthblood elves sound Australian.

N'than

Voiced by: Dylan Schombing (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

An Earthblood elf child, and member of the Drakeriders who guides the "Dragang" through the Drakewood.

Children Are Innocent: He lacks the thuggish demeanor the adult Drakeriders possess.
Earthy Barefoot Character; So far, other than only wearing leaves around them, he goes barefoot in all his scenes, presumely due to the Earthblood connection to the Earth Primal.
Native Guide: He knows the location around Umber Tor inside out and leads the heroes to Rex.
Punctuation Shaker: Has an apostrophe in his name to indicate "exotic".
Shout-Out: His name, as well as those of his home, are massive allusions to the Uncharted series.
Tag Along Kid: N'Than joins up with Zym's group in the latter half of their journey to get to Umber Tor and Rex Igneous.
Token Heroic Orc: So far he's the only Earthblood Elf encountered who isn't either a jerk, or helping the villains.
What Happened to the Mouse?: He doesn't appear in Book 5 and nothing is said of if he returned to the Drakeriders or not.

Warlon

Voiced by: Bill Newton (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

The sadistic leader of the Drakeriders, who is fought by Soren when the latter saw him beating a drake.

Bad People Abuse Animals: He beats up dragons for fun and to prove his superiority over them.
Beard of Evil: Has a goatee.
Card Carrying Evil: He doesn't object when Soren calls him a villain and outright laughs at it.
Evil Redhead: Warlon is an antagonistic brute with long red hair, who cruelly tames drakes using harsh methods which upset both the drake and the young N'than, with Warlon caring for neither's obvious discomfort.
Kick the Dog: He beats up drakes and overpowers them in order for he and his group to ride them.
Literal-Minded: When Soren tells him to pick on someone his own size, Warlon doesn't get the meaning of the phrase and just points out the drake he was trying to break was twice his size.

Tidebound Elves

In General

Ocean magic draws on the depth of the oceans and tides, and its power connects through rivers and lakes that flow back to it. Ocean mages can reflect the nature of their home: a swamp mage and a river mage would look very different, though they both connect to the same Primal Source. Ocean-connected creatures often forge strong connections to others, and can have hidden depths.

Elves connected to the Ocean arcanum. Their skin color ranges from dark, grayish blue to light teal, they have horns that look like coral growths and ears that look like fins. They're also able to breathe underwater. These characteristics make them the least human looking elves, looking more like merfolk than actual elves.

Making a Splash: Tidebound Elves draw their power from the Ocean, and are skilled at manipulating water.
Odd Name Out: All the other elves have names that directly reference the element they are tied to. You'd expect these elves to have "Ocean" in their name to follow the naming theme, but they have "Tide" instead.
Our Mermaids Are Different: As Elves tied to the ocean, they can breath underwater and come with a variety of distinct aquatic features like gills and fins.
Out of Focus: Tidebound elves are the second least represented race of Elves among the major characters in the main series, with only two (Startouch Elves have only have Aaravos, but he's the Big Bad). Before season 5, they don't even make an onscreen appearance until a brief flashback during Book 4.
Super Not-Drowning Skills: Their fish-like appearance also includes the ability to breathe underwater.

Tina

Tidebound Tina, Archmage Akiyu

Voiced by: Julie Lemieux

An elderly Tidebound Elf woman, team Zym encounters while searching for a great Ocean mage.

Actually, I Am Him: It soon becomes apparent that she is the Archmage the group are looking for and she admits it when called out.
Been There, Shaped History: Akiyu was one of the hands responsible for crafting Aaravos' prison.
Expy: Being a short, ancient, and mischievous guide for the heroes whose actually a powerful sorcerer, Tina is basically an aquatic version of Yoda, if a bit extra grumpy.
Good is Not Nice: She is overall shown to be on the side of good, saving Team Zym from a group of carrion gulls, and genuinely wants to protect the world from Aaravos. However, she is willing to have Team Zym killed when she thought they were going to free him and has no problem bossing them around.
Miniature Senior Citizen: She's about as short as Ezran was in Book 1, and is quite old.
Poor Communication Kills: In this case, it's more "Poor communication almost kills" - she thought that Team Zym was trying to free Aaravos and tries to trick them into literally walking into the belly of a beast because they never actually said why they were looking for Akiyu.
Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior!: She openly calls team Zym a "Group of Weirdos" within direct earshot of them after they introduce themselves.
Tentacle Hair: Has tentacle like appendages protruding from the back.
Troll: She clearly seems to enjoy messing with people. It's not until she learns Team Zym is actually trying to keep Aaravos imprisoned that she drops the facade.
Uncanny Valley: Her almost human-like-looking face rests her firmly in the uncanny valley.

Finnegrin

"Now you see what keeps everyone on my ship in line. The chains...well, they're really just for show."

The pirate lord of Scumport, and captain of the Sea Legs.

Animal Motifs: Is quite fond of hermit crabs, being the image on his Jolly Roger and is quite fond of those he keeps his pets. Especially the two massive ones he dubbed Sea Leggs and Shelly.
Arc Villain: Of the latter half of Season 5.
Bad Boss: Controls his crew with the constant threat of freezing the blood in their veins hanging over their heads. He also verbally abuses Deadwood every time he addresses him.
Control Freak: His defining trait. Finnegrin relies on fear over inspiring loyalty because he can't stand knowing, as an ocean mage, that some things are just beyond his power to command.
Deconstructed Character Archetype: Unlike most depictions of pirates as romanticized adventurers who sail and live freely on the boundless seas in defiance of authority, led by captain's who inspire loyalty through charisma and acts of bravery, Finnegrin is a tyrannical Control Freak who holds his crew captive with the threat of his power, and aspires to kill Domina Profundis simply because he hates knowing there's Always a Bigger Fish out there.
Early-Bird Cameo: Appeared in a Reflections story ahead of Book 5.
Even Evil Has Loved Ones: One of the reasons he wants revenge on Domina Profundis is because she killed his previous ship (a giant hermit crab who was his current ship's sister). He states that he loved the crab and speaks of her with genuine fondness.
Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Due to him seeing everyone around him by how useful they are to him, Finnegrin is suprised by Callum's friends' willingness to have their hands cut off in order to protect each other, which he later tries to use against them.
Evil Is Deathly Cold: Finnegrin's preferred method of enforcing discipline? Literal Cold-Blooded Torture.
Evil Is Petty: Throws out the idea of trying to bargain with Callum after the young mage manages to punch him, right in his face, in front of his whole crew, showing them that his authority isn't as absolute as he would have them believe. He attempts to punish Callum, and presumably save face for this embarrassment, by attempting to feed Rayla to a sea leviathan.
Equal-Opportunity Evil: Has multple types of elves and humans on his crew.
Face Framed in Shadow: How he appears◊ looking over an Arena fight in part 2 of the Chasing Shadows story.
Hate Sink: He has barely any redeeming qualities, while having no sympathetic motivations and is senselessly cruel. Noticing that Callum is a mage, he chains him up and tortures him, demanding that he help create a dark magic spell to kill the archdragon of the Ocean. When Callum refuses, Finnegrin instead tries to egg him on by goading him into freeing his friends. He then tortured Rayla by freezing the blood in her veins. When this causes Callum to snap and punch out Finnegrin, the pirate decides to try murdering Rayla out of spite. Needless to say, we aren't meant to feel the least bit sorry for him when Elmer throws him down the leviathan's gullet.
Horned Humanoid: Sports a pair made of coral, on account of being a Tidebound Elf.
An Ice Person: He controls his crew by using magic to freeze their blood.
Karmic Death: A twofer, no less. Deadwood/Elmer, the crewmate who's received the brunt of Finnegrin's abuse, gains the courage to finally defy him thanks to Soren's kindness and feeds him to the same leviathan he'd been planning to feed Rayla to.
Manly Facial Hair: Sports a dapper moustache worthy of Captain Hook.
My Species Doth Protest Too Much: With the exception of Aaravos, elves condemn dark magic and humans with it. Finnegrin is already fine with exploiting magical creatures and with using his ocean magic for horrifying purposes like freezing the blood in someone's veins to terrify them into obedience, and wishes to learn dark magic so he can gain even more power.
Never My Fault: He wants revenge on Domina Profundis for killing his giant hermit crab, a sister to the one that serves as a ship. At the same time, he acknowledges that she did so because he was using the hermit crab to wantonly slaughter leviathans and screwing up the balance of nature.
Pet the Dog: The sole positive thing about him is his fondness for his pet hermit crabs, although he has no problems tossing them out of the way to make deals with possible buyers.
Sadistic Choice: Forces two upon Callum—either he chooses which one of his friends lose their hand, or they all lose a hand. When this doesn't work, Finnegrin then offers Callum another—break his principles and use dark magic to free his friends, or let them all continue their imprisonment.
Villainous Breakdown: Given how much of a Control Freak he is, he begins freaking out when Elmer stops meekly following orders and decides to pay him back for all of his abuse.

Startouch Elves

In General

Star magic is little understood. It draws on the vast and timeless power of the cosmos, and involves divination, cosmic vision, and seeing into the “beyond”. Creatures connected to the Stars are extremely uncommon and rarely seen.

Elves connected to the Stars arcanum. Their skin is blue and dotted with stars, and their horns are large and tined.

Internal Retcon: Due to the actions of Aaravos, all knowledge of Startouch Elves has been magically erased from the history books, with pages on them or Aaravos turning blank when examined. The only information that stays refers to them in euphemism or allegory.
Seers: One of the few things known about Star magic is that it involves divination.
Star Power: Startouch Elves draw their magic from the Stars. Precisely what that arcanum specializes in is largely unknown outside the Startouch Elves, though there are some rumors.
Time Abyss: Startouch Elves live significantly longer than the other Elves of Xadia, which gives them a "big picture" view of the world. Aaravos is supposed to be five thousand years old, but only looks like he's in his mid-twenties. It's unclear if he's the norm or an outlier, though.

Dragons

In General

Bad Vibrations: Sol Regem and Zubeia, and Zubeia is friendly. Stomp, stomp, stomp.
Breath Weapon: All dragons can exhale destructive energy of a type related to their arcanum. Sun dragons are the classic firebreathers, while storm dragons spit lightning.
Draconic Abomination: According to the Tales of Xadia handbook, Star Dragons — which are dragons associated with the Primal Source of the stars — live in the depths of space and come in two known varieties:
- Void Dragons live in the abyss of space between the stars, but beyond that little is known about them beyond a legend that a bone from one was used to grant wishes... albeit in a twisted manner.
- Star Devourer Dragons are depicted as jet-black dragons with ten eyes — though their true appearance is unknown due to the mere sight of them causing delirium — and as their name suggests eat stars, or at least the magic stored within their cores. The Sunfire Elves are especially terrified of them due to drawing their power from Xadia's Sun, and have an ancient ritual to ward Star Devourer Dragons away from it.
Elemental Dragon: Like the setting's elves, dragons are divided into six types based on which of the primal sources of magic they are attuned to — the sky, the sun, the moon, the stars, the earth, and the sea.
- Sun dragons tend to come in warm-spectrum colors ranging from gold and yellow through orange and to red, although green and gray-blue ones have also been seen, and breathe fire.
- Storm dragons are gray to blue in coloring, possess numerous horns and thick manes of white hair, and spit lightning. Their eggs are blue with colorful specks, pulse with light, and can only hatch during thunderstorms.
Gigantic Adults, Tiny Babies: Adult dragons are gigantic — especially the titanic archdragons, which are easily larger than most human buildings. By contrast, dragon eggs can fit in backpacks and newborn dragons are the size of smallish dogs.
The High King: While not outright stated, it's implied that the monarch of the dragons holds dominion over all of Xadia, as Elves are shown deferring to and acknowledging their authority.
Hot-Blooded: A common trait among each Archdragon met so far is how easily they can be enraged.
Large and in Charge: The archdragons, who rule over draconic society, are much larger than their subjects — common dragons are around the size of houses, while the archdragons are in the general range of castles.
Our Dragons Are Different: Dragons are powerful, magical creatures and the most powerful inhabitants of the magical land of Xadia. They are divided into distinct races attuned to the different sources of primal magic, and are further split between "regular" dragons (who while intelligent, can't speak) and the immense and powerful archdragons (who can speak), who are the rulers of their kind. Adults are very large, but infants are the size of a small dog, and eggs are easily stuffed in backpacks. Unlike the traditional Western image of dragons as vicious monsters, however, dragons are for the most part treated as noble and admirable creatures... by the folks on the Xadian side of things, anyway. Humans very much see dragons as vicious monsters. The truth is a mixture of both — at least some of the dragons (including Avizandum, Zubeia, and Sol Regem) are sapient and can speak. However, Sol Regem is quite bigoted against humans, whom he views as lesser beings, and holds human life in very low regard. Sol Regem was even willing to wipe out an entire city just because one human mage refused to give up Dark Magic, and later shows he's all too happy to murder elves and dragons as well that don't do the same.

Archdragons

Avizandum/Thunder, the Dragon King

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/one_pixel_brush_dragon_prince_poster_1.jpg

If there were no Thunder, men would have little fear of lightning.

Voiced by: Chris Metzen (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

"The humans called him Thunder, for when he spoke, his words shook the earth and the sky."

—Aaravos

An Archdragon of the Sky, Avizandum — known to the humans as "Thunder" — is Azymondias's father and was the King of the Dragons for the past three hundred years until his death shortly before the show begins.

Authority Sounds Deep: Has a deep voice rivaling even that of his predecessor Sol Regem.
Breath Weapon: He can shoot lightning from his mouth.
The Bully: Discussed. According to Rex Igneous (who is admittedly more than a little biased), Avizandum patrolled the border not out of an honest desire to protect Xadia, but because hunting and destroying humans made him feel powerful. Since Rex Igneous is our only source for this, how much of this true is unknown.
- It was revealed by Zubeia in the short story "all storms end" that he is a downplayed version, but nonetheless a confirmed one. While Avizandum genuinely protected the border to safeguard Xadia, he also took pride in what he did, and the reason why there are countless remains in the Xadian side of the border is because Avizandum wanted to use them as a reminder of his triumphs. Also Zubeia refutes Rex's accusations that Avizandum provoked the humans into fights, claiming instead he was only ever reactionary and defending his kingdom. However, she too is a biased source so the full truth is ambiguous.
The Dreaded: And rightfully so, at least for the humans. Even Viren's magic does little more than inconvenience him.
Family Theme Naming: He, the queen, and Zym all have a's and z's in their name.
Fantastic Racism: Though certainly not as bad as the former dragon king, the short story "all storms end" revealed he genuinely enjoyed pushing human armies to the brink, and causing casualties, whenever they crossed the border for whatever reason. He went as far as to intentionally leave their battered remains on the border, as tribute to his victories.
Futile Hand Reach: His last moments are spent crawling towards the mountain where the unborn Zym is located and he reaches his hand out towards it to no avail.
Given Name Reveal: From the beginning of the show, we know that the humans called him Thunder, but it isn't until the middle of season 3 that Aaravos reveals that his true name was Avizandum.
Happily Married: Any depiction of their time together show that he was a devoted and loving mate to Zubeia.
Hero Killer: He is responsible for the deaths of Queens Sarai, Annika, and Neha, who chose to stay and keep him distracted while Harrow and his men escape with a Magma titan's heart.
Death by Irony: The day Avizandum decided to let the humans live out of mercy, was the day he died, as the humans at that point had reached their breaking point, and his mercy no longer meant anything to them, as their fear of the archdragon was replaced with deep unfettered hatred.
Jerkass Has a Point: We find out that the humans invaded Xadia to kill a Magma Titan, claim its heart, and leave. Thunder attacked the party when he saw them since it was a violation of the established treaties. Harrow later has the sense to admit that Thunder was only protecting the Xadia borders and was not malicious.
Meaningful Name: Avizandum is a term in Scots law, meaning to take time to consider a judgement — something you'd certainly hope a king would do!
Names to Run Away from Really Fast: "Thunder" in this instance is not metaphorical.
Odd Name Out: He and Zubeia (and Azymondias when he grows up) are Sky Archdragons who have one-word names, unlike the Archdragons of the other Primal Sources who have two-word names, although it's currently unknown if the same goes for the Archdragon of the Stars or not.
One-Man Army: The main reason why the human armies couldn't cross the border into Xadia? Thunder himself protected the border.
Only Known by Their Nickname: "Thunder" isn't his real name, only what the humans called him.
Papa Wolf: The day Harrow and Viren challenge him in Xadia was the day Zym was to be born, and he even told them that this would be the one time he'd show them mercy. As he starts to become affected by Sarai's spear, he immediately turns towards the spire and tries to reach out to his unborn son who he will never get to see.
Avizandum: Today is a special day, a day of life. Do not force me to make it a day of death.
Posthumous Character: He was killed before the series began, kicking off the war.
Red Baron: Since he naturally never formally introduced himself to his foes, the Human Kingdoms simply knew him by the moniker of "Thunder".
Ride the Lightning: According to the website, he could turn into lightning to travel from the sky to the ground instantaneously.
Shock and Awe: As a Sky dragon, he had powers over lightning. Hence why he was called "Thunder".
Taken for Granite: After Harrow drove Sarai's enchanted spear into his heart, Avizandum was petrified from the chest out, with his eyes being the last part to succumb as he tried to reach for his lair and egg. His petrified remains are still standing where he fell by the time the main characters reach the Storm Spire.
Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Striking down Queen Sarai ends up starting a chain of events that leads to Zym being kidnapped in egg form and Viren down a path of darkness.
Weather Manipulation: Avizandum's mere presence can create storms.
Would Hit a Girl: He was the one that caused the deaths of Sarai, Annika, and Neha.

Zubeia, the Dragon Queen

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eifliymuuaablrf.jpg

A grieving mother.

Voiced by: Nicole Oliver (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

"Is this... a dream?"

An Archdragon of the Sky who is the Queen of the Dragons, Avizandum's mate, and Azymondias's mother.

Actually Pretty Funny: While at first a bit annoyed by Soren's jokes, she finds some pretty funny and even mistakes him for the Court Jester.
Angst Coma: After losing her mate and her child, she has been slowly dying. When the group finally meet her, her caretaker says she hasn't opened her eyes for ten days.
Beware the Nice Ones: While Zubeia is generally a noble and kind individual, she is also an Archdragons and thus is a force to be reckoned with when angered.
Big Damn Heroes: She comes to save the group from Rex Igneous at the end of Book 4.
- And again in Book 5 when she smashes through the glass ceiling of the Great Bookery to save Callum, Rayla, Amaya, and Bait from the Shadow Banthers.
Death by Despair: Downplayed Trope. The grief of losing her mate and son drove her into an Angst Coma that is slowly killing her. The heroes return her son to her as she was on the brink of death.
Delightful Dragon: While she can be intimidating when she wants to be, Zubeia is overall a friendly and wise being. She's also a doting mother to Zym.
Easily Forgiven: Subverted. While she didn't commit the crime, Zubeia nonetheless watched Avizandum commit his many atrocities against humans, despite being of the opinion he was going a bit overboard, and seemed to actually be okay with him doing what he was doing, until circumstances forced a change in her mindset, in addition to the fact that she was the one who ordered Harrow's death. Despite this being well known among the cast, she's never really called out on her part in humanity's oppression and mistreatment, despite many characters being affected by it. Though the general human populace has shown that they haven't forgiven her for her past actions.
Family Theme Naming: She, the king, and Zym all have z's in their name.
The Ghost: She is mentioned several times in Book 1 and the current series goal is to return the egg, and later Azymondias, to her, but Zubeia doesn't appear until episode 8 of Book 3.
Happily Married: All references to when he was alive imply that she and her mate Avizandum were a devoted, loving couple. All Storms End reveals that even after Zym was returned Zubeia still mourns her mate's absence, occasionally waking up and briefly expecting to still feel him next to her.
The High Queen: She's the benevolent queen of the dragons.
Irony:
- Viren completely believed war was inevitable due to killing her mate and making it look like he killed her son, but not only was she not preparing an invasion, she sought to avenge her son, soon falling into despair from losing all her family, and was dying from her emotional breakdown.
- Callum and Rayla joke about the idea of telling Zubeia about their relationship; while they decide that the world isn't ready for what they have, and the topic wasn't likely to come up anyway, it turns out that seeing humans and elves together (including Callum and Rayla) was extremely important to restoring Zubeia's faith in humanity.
- The two humans with whom she ends up building the closest rapport are Ezran and Soren, the sons of the men who killed her mate.
- The life of her son was ultimately saved by Callum, the son of the mother who her mate had killed. Double points for irony is that he did it by sacrificing the sky primal stone he had in his possession at time, which at that point, was believed to be his only means of using sky primal magic, meaning he sacrificed his own future to use magic, for her benefit.
Mama Bear: Having already lost Zym once, Zubeia is incredibly protective of him. When Zubeia arrives at Umber Tor to find Rex Igneous about to kill Zym and his friends, she pulls a Go Through Me. Rex responds by roaring and summoning lava geysers, to which she responds by roaring right back and summoning a massive thunderstorm, causing Rex to back down.
Nice Girl: She's a formidable lady when her temper is provoked, but is otherwise a very gentle and patient dragon when among friends and allies.
Odd Name Out: She, Avizandum, and Azymondias have only one word in their names, unlike the other currently-named Archdragons who have two words instead.
Restored My Faith in Humanity: The humans and elves who worked together to bring her son back to her did this.
Royals Who Actually Do Something: Relatively minor, but from season 4 and onward, she takes more of an active role in helping to stop Aaravos, from rallying dragons, to halting Rex Igneous' wrath, to even taking a stand against the Dark Creatures.
Shock and Awe: Like her mate, she can conjure bolts of lightning and thunderstorms at will.
Story-Breaker Power: Naturally, having the Queen of Dragons, a massive powerful Archdragon, on the heroes' side would allow them to effectively fly over any possible delays to their destination, easily debate stuff or have stuff done for royalty, or just blow up any threat they face if all else fails. As a result, the story has several points set up to keep Zubeia out of it whenever necessary, whether through having her unable to fit inside an area to keep her from helping the heroes talk with Rex Igneous, or having her hindered by the corrupted Banther bite in Season 5 to keep her from just ferrying the heroes to the location of Aaravos' prison.
Talking Animal: Is capable of intelligent speech, just like Avizandum, Rex Igneous and Sol Regem.
Vocal Evolution: Her first spoken lines in book 3 were noticeably deepened, but by book 4, Zubeia sounds much more natural.
Zombie Infectee: In Book 5, she's bitten by a corrupted Banther while rescuing Callum's group from the Great Bookery, leaving her unable to help the heroes any further with only Soren aware that something is wrong with her to some extent. While she does manage to fight it off for a bit, she's unable to get to the heroes before succumbing and fainting while on her way over, though a mysterious being by the name of the Mushroom Mage appeared to help her with the corruption, though it's unclear whether or not it was a full cure or just delaying her eventual transformation.

Sol Regem

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sdcc_dragon_prince_season_3_poster_1.jpg

Curse the Sun Devil.

^{Click here to see present day apperence.}

Voiced by: Adrian Hough (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

An Archdragon of the Sun and former King of the Dragons who lives near the border between Xadia and the Human Kingdoms.

Achilles' Heel: The Nose Knows, but the eyes don't. Rayla exploits this by using a scarf laden with Callum's scent.
Advertised Extra: He features prominently on the main poster for the series, but is not introduced until the very end of the last episode of Book 2.
Anti-Villain: In the past, he could qualify: he viewed humans as "lesser beings" but did not seem to consider them inherently evil, and while he was willing to destroy a whole city full of people to accomplish his goal, said goal was to bring an end to a practice that was killing innocent magic creatures. In the present day, however, his rage and bitterness have consumed him to the point where he sees all humans without exception as filthy, evil monsters, and will not suffer any in his presence to live, no matter the circumstances.
Authority Sounds Deep: Fitting for a former Dragon king such as himself.
Sol Regem: I smell death.
Badass Boast: Inverted: when Karim urges him to reclaim his place as Dragon King, he delivers a grandiose listing of his current physical qualities and mental state, in a tone dripping with bitter sarcasm.
Sol Regem: Then, behold... the once-great Sun King! Bask in the brilliant rays of light that shine through the holes in my tattered wings. Gaze upon the mighty face of my golden glory, dripping with seared flesh melted by evil magic. Bow down before the swollen, oozing bedsores of a magnificent archdragon, lying motionless and depressed for decades.
Breath Weapon: His fire breath is hot enough to completely vaporize a human in one shot, but he can only use it after a short recharge. Without it, he tends to fall back to plan B; "Be a gigantic dragon".
Cruel Mercy: He planned on sparing Ziard as part of the deal of their meeting, but never said he wouldn't slaughter thousands of innocent humans if the "inferior being" didn't do as he willed.
Despair Event Horizon: Admits to Karim that he lost his hope long before he lost his sight, and has spent the last few centuries languishing in depression.
The Dreaded: He's considered a living symbol of hatred by the other Xadians and given that he was willing to kill the elf Rayla and the infant dragon prince Zym simply because they stood up for the human Callum, it's a well earned reputation.
Early-Bird Cameo: He shows up in the first episode of the series in the beginning narrative flying in the sky with a group of bird-like creatures.
Evil Laugh: Gives a raspy chuckle when Callum offers to let Rayla take Zym into Xadia while he returns to the Human Kingdoms.
Exact Words: He promises that Ziard will be safe during their negotiations because Ziard wouldn't be in Elarion when Sol burns it down if he refuses to give up dark magic.
Eye Scream: Ziard blasted him in his eyes with dark magic prior to the beginning of the show, scarring his face and blinding him.
Facial Horror: He has extensive, disfiguring scarring over most of his face, replacing his eyes and a great deal of skin around them with angry, blistered flesh. He received this from his fight with Ziard, who cast a large fireball at him and burned out his eyes.
Fantastic Racism:
- He believes humans shouldn't be allowed to use dark magic, that they are lesser beings and are walking off the path "forward". His reaction regarding dark magic and the smell of "death" it gives also makes clear he sees all magical creatures as inherently superior to humans.
  Ziard: You just expect humans to go back to the way things were before we had magic? When humans were starved, helpless and pathetic! Back in a time when we were... lesser beings?
  Sol Regem: You are lesser beings.
- Rayla asks for them to go through so she could deliver the long-lost Dragon Prince back to his mother, and Sol Regem allows her passage. However, he then says that he must kill Callum, who should not be anywhere in Xadia. When he senses that Callum had recently used Dark Magic, he decides he is no different and tries to kill him sooner.
Gold-Colored Superiority: Has amber coloured scales, is a former Dragon King and each appearance shows he is a force to be reckoned with.
Hidden Depths: Sol Regem is visibly intrigued by Rayla's heartfelt speech about Callum's nobility and appears to genuinely consider letting him pass; he only regains his resolve to kill Callum when he detects dark magic on him.
How the Mighty Have Fallen: He was the King of the Dragons long before Avizandum. But after being blinded he's reduced to living alone in a desert and judging by Rayla's comment about how he has become a symbol of rage and bitterness, it is likely that the other inhabitants of Xadia aren't very fond of him. This is something he bitterly lampshades when Karim tries to convince him to become king again.
Hypocrite: Sol Regem despises dark magic and has zero-tolerance for it because it causes the deaths of innocent magic creatures, which is completely understandable... but he is perfectly willing to murder innocents himself if they refuse to yield to his demands. His threat to destroy Elarion, a city inhabited by hundreds of thousands of innocent humans, just to pressure a single dark mage into forsaking his power.
- He considers Xadians above "lesser beings" such as humans but is perfectly willing to kill an innocent baby dragon or teenage elf.
- He is absolutely outraged that Callum would take magic from the life of "innocent creatures" as he puts it, but not two minutes prior Sol Regem was willing to kill him just for being there, even when Callum was willing to return home.
Jerkass: In his debut episode, Sol Regem threatens to destroy an entire city just to punish a single rebellious mage, refuses to let Callum return home in favor of killing him, and is willing to murder Rayla and Zym because they begged him to spare Callum's life. Nice, he is not.
Jerkass Has a Point: For all his anti-human sentiment and terrible tactics, he wasn't wrong that the human's use of dark magic on a large scale was consuming the lives of untold numbers of magical beings. Unfortunately, his arrogance and disdain for humans lead him to take immediate hostile actions against them when Ziard attempted to negotiate a peaceful solution.
Laser-Guided Karma: His hatred was so powerful it guided everything he did during his reign. As a result of a fight spurred by that hate, he's now blinded by it.
Last Episode, New Character: He is the very last thing to show in Season 2, for he is only revealed in the last scene when Rayla and Callum meet him in Xadia.
Light Is Not Good: He is a Sun Dragon, but even dragon-worshipping elves see him as The Dreaded.
Meaningful Name: His name can be understood as "Sun King", befitting his nature.
Moral Myopia: Sol Regem considers the use of Dark Magic to be despicable and unacceptable because it causes the deaths of innocent magic creatures... but he sees nothing wrong with destroying an entire city of innocent humans or threatening the life of an innocent baby dragon.
The Nose Knows: He's able to smell the use of dark magic on Ziard and Callum.
Once Done, Never Forgotten: He hasn't forgotten the last time he dealt with a human who used Dark Magic. When he senses Callum had tried it, he decides that he shouldn't bother to spare him.
The Power of the Sun: He is an Archdragon of the Sun.
Pyrrhic Victory: He technically won his battle against Ziard by killing the wizard, but his arrogance in doing so cost him his sight, the chance to destroy the humans he was targeting, and eventually all of the power and respect he once held in Xadia. Meanwhile, despite being killed immediately, Ziard humbled the dragon king using his own element and ensured humanity had a chance to thrive all by casting a single spell.
Refused the Call: When the exiled Prince Karim approches him to beseech him take back his title as the King of the Dragons, Sol turns him down, citing his ruined and scarred body make him a poor symbol to rally behind. Unfortunately this just inspires Karim to steal the Sun Seed to heal the Dragon.
The Right of a Superior Species: Implied to be a large part of his Fantastic Racism. Since his kind are... well, dragons, it was seemingly the norm for them to look down on humans as "lesser beings" for them to rule over due to their inability to use magic. So when humans discovered Dark Magic, it's hinted that Sol Regem was less bothered by how using it required taking the lives of innocent magical creatures, but that the humans would dare to try and become his kind's equals. This is evidenced by him holding an entire city of humans hostage to force their leader to renounce Dark Magic and keep their status quo from changing.
Sense-Impaired Monster: He's blind as a result of his eyes having been burned out long ago. However, his hearing and smell are as keen as ever. In "Sol Regem", this presents a complex situation for Rayla and Callum when they try to sneak past him and into Xadia, since he despises humans and will not knowingly permit one's entry. Callum can walk right in front of him and even talk to him without being identified, but Regem will "see" through their ruse the moment he gets a good whiff. Once this happens, Rayla takes advantage of this by taking Callum's scarf, using the scent on it to trick the blind dragon into thinking that she's Callum, and leading him on a wild goose chase.
Stern Sun Worshippers: Sol Regem, like the Sunfire Elves, has an instinct to purify and banish all signs of darkness. He decides to kill Callum the minute he detects a trace of dark magic on him, despite the fact that Callum only used it once out of desperation and swore never to use it again, and previously decided to burn down an entire human city for the sake of stopping dark magic's use.
Stopped Caring: When Karim approached Sol Regem, he revealed to him that humans had come to Xadia and asked the old dragon to become the dragon king again. Sol Regem pointed out his blind and crippled state and admitted that he had lost hope long before he lost his sight and asked him to leave. Notably, in the previous season, it was stated that Sol Regem was known as a symbol of hatred, obsessively guarded the border and would not let even one human enter or leave Xadia alive. Now, Sol Regem is in a cave alone, and hearing about humans in Xadia, he refuses to act; it’s clear that during the time skip, he has lost the will to even act on his hatred and now does not care about the humans and wants to be left alone in his despair.
Talking Animal: Is the first non-elf magical creature shown to speak English (a flashback later shows Thunder speaking, and season 3 ends with the Dragon Queen speaking). As the other dragons don't seem to speak English, it's an open question if this is a function of magic, age, or training.
Visual Pun: He can't see and is utterly unreasonable when it comes to his hatred of humanity; he's blinded by hatred.
Would Harm a Child: And a whole city at that. Sol Regem threatens Ziard that if he does not immediately relinquish dark magic, then he would have no choice but to fly to the city and burn it to the ground. Ziard calls it a bluff, believing he wasn't capable of being so cruel, and Sol wordlessly takes to the sky, heading towards the city. He later makes clear killing the baby dragon prince Zym because he sides with a human is not off the table.

Luna Tenebris

Praise the Moon Goddess.

An Archdragon of the Moon who became the Queen of the Dragons centuries before the rise of Avizandum.

Meaningful Name: "The Dark Moon" in Latin.
- One well-known usage of the word tenebris is in a phrase from the Gospel of John: "Et lux in tenebris lucet et tenebrae eam non comprehenderunt.", which translates to "The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."
- Tenebrism, also known as dramatic illumination, is a style of painting that uses extreme contrasts between the lighting and the darkness, mostly dominating the image with the latter.
Succession Crisis: Her sudden and mysterious death, without a suitable heir, caused a period of strife amongst the other archdragons.

Rex Igneous

The Mountain King.

Voiced by: Ben Cotton (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

An Archdragon of the Earth, who resides beneath the mountain of Umber Tor.

Antagonist in Mourning: His tone changes immediately from scathing and taunting to solemn and respectful after learning of Avizandum's death.
Berserk Button: Avizandum is a huge button for Rex Igneous. Ezran just mentioning Zubeia, Avizandum's mate, sends Rex into a vicious rant against the Dragon King as a bully who sought conflict with humans because he was too afraid to fight dragons. It's so vitriolic Zym attacks Rex in a rage, breaking the illusion Rayla had previously cast and revealing Zym as the son of Avizandum. Rex assumes that Avizandum sent his son in his place as an insult, and honestly sounds like he's on the verge of attacking Zym and his friends. It's not until Ezran tells Rex that Avizandum is dead that Rex calms down, though it does get Rex to at least apologize to Zym.
Dragon Hoard: In order to seek an audience with Rex Igneous, one must present the Archdragon with a gift. Centuries of this practice have left Rex Igneous with a massive treasure hoard in his den, but it also means that he has so many treasures that he's become more discerning in accepting material goods. New experiences, such as delicious foods, however...
Everyone Has Standards: When talking about Zym's father, he expresses disgust at the fact that he had constantly fought humans. And when it was revealed that Avizandum had been murdered, he expresses sadness and reveals that he and Avizandum were friends before they were rivals.
Food as Bribe: According to Callum's Spellbook, rumors run through Xadia that Rex Igneous can be appeased by being given strange foods that he has never tasted before. When we fully meet him, he agrees to answer the group's question after Ezran gives him a tart.
Friend Turned Rival: He shares with the heroes that he and Avizandum used to be friends before the dispute for the Dragon King title stood between them.
Hidden Depths: Rex Igneous initially appears to be the stereotypical idea of what a dragon is in traditional Western folklore: strong and powerful, lurking in a treacherous lair with a Dragon Hoard and demanding tribute of supplicant humans. However, when he actually speaks he shows to have long ago grown tired of the usual weapons and treasure found in these hoards and would rather be receive gifts of new experiences, and while he does expresses disdain for humans as inferior, he finds Avizandum's decision to fight against humans to be an unfair fight and beneath the honor of a dragon.
Jerkass Has a Point: Rex Igneous taunts Zym about his father being a bully who liked to pick fights with puny humans in the border to feel powerful, and it would eventually get him killed. Of course, this is exactly what happened.
Know When to Fold 'Em: When Zubeia arrives to protect Zym and his companions, Rex Igneous tries to intimidate her with a roar causing fire plumes to erupt. When Zubeia roars right back at him and summons a lightning storm, Rex Igneous decides the injury isn't worth fighting Zubeia over and retreats to Umber Tor.
Locked Out of the Loop: Rex Igneous spends most of his time in his lair in Umber Tor, only emerging once every century. As a result, he is completely unaware of what goes on in Xadia most of the time, including Avizandum's death and Zym's birth.
Minor Injury Overreaction: In order to wake Rex Igneous up from Claudia's sleeping spell, Rayla decides to stab him in the leg. It works, but Rex Igneous considers this a betrayal on the heroes part and goes on a rampage trying to kill them all.
Treasure Map: The map to Aaravos' prison is carved into one of his teeth.
Worthless Yellow Rocks: Played with. Rex Igneous likes treasure, and demands worthy gifts from those seeking an audience with him. But by the time of season 4, he's already got huge heaps of treasure and doesn't care about new gifts since he's got plenty already, which is why Ezran's gift of food appeases him when rare weapons or the crown of a king (Rayla's butterfly blades, Callum's sky magic staff, and Ezran's crown; which he identifies as "two knives, a stick, and a hat" respectively) do not.

Domina Profundis

Mistress of the Tides.

Voiced by: Jennifer Hale (English)

The Archdragon of the Ocean.

Advertised Extra: Domina appears prominently in the promotional posters for Book 5, but soley appears in its first episode.
Meaningful Name: "Domina Profundis" is Latin for "Mistress of the Deep", a fitting name for the Archdragon of the Ocean.
My Greatest Failure: A short story reveals that once Domina guarded all the lands of Xadia but while away from the ocean a noble leviathan and dear friend of hers was killed protecting the seas in her stead, so Domina vowed from then on to never again leave the waves.

Other Dragons

Pyrrah

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sun_dragon_scout.jpg

A lady with a temper.

A red female Fire Dragon who gets in a fight with humans.

Androcles' Lion: She helps the heroes survive the Storm Spire because they saved her back in "Fire and Fury", and even lets Ezran ride her in the later episodes.
The Cavalry: She appears in the Season 3 finale leading a flight of Fire Dragons into battle against Viren's army.
Disproportionate Retribution: After Soren fires a ballista bolt at her, she turns around and begins to lay waste to the town, when she could have just torched the tower that fired the bolt.
Meaningful Name: Her name comes from "Pyrrhus", which is in turn derived from a Greek word meaning flame-colored — fitting for a red Fire Dragon.
Talking Animal: Averted; she's the only dragon with a significant amount of interaction with the group who hasn't spoken an understandable language, only communicating in growls and roars (though Ezran can still understand her).

Other Magical Creatures

Phoe-Phoe

...Because she's a phoenix.

^{Click here to see her reborn}

Lujanne's Moon Phoenix.

Determinator: She literally works herself to death by refusing to rest while carrying Ezran back into Xadia. Slightly softened by the fact that, as a phoenix, she will eventually resurrect.
Giant Flyer: She's a huge bird who can carry several people on her back.
Heroic Sacrifice: In Season 3, she expends so much energy in trying to fly Ezran to the Storm Spire in time that, once they get there, she collapses and dies. However, as a phoenix, she will be reborn from the final feather left after her immolation.
The Phoenix: Moon phoenixes are giant birds with blue-black feathers, the edges of which trail blue flames, and which draw their magic from the moon. When they die, they burn up into ash in blue flames and leave behind a single blue feather, that they will be reborn from when the time is right.
Repetitive Name: Her name is short for Phoenix-Phoenix.
Sacrificial Lamb: She's a minor character who dies to show that the goal to bring peace to the realms doesn't come without sacrifices.

Magma Titan

"Is it the last of its kind?"

A powerful creature of stone and fire.

Ambiguous Situation: It's unclear how intelligent it is (if it has any intelligence at all), which in turn makes the moral significance of using its heart for a dark magic spell uncertain.
Gem Heart: Its heart is a glowing gemstone the size of a grown man.
Glowing Gem: His heart, a magical artifact capable of fueling a spell to make two kingdoms fertile in the heart of winter, is a glowing tetrahedronal gemstone the size of a grown man.
Heart Trauma: Its heart is removed and used to power a dark magic spell to warm the lands of Katolis and Duren.
Living Lava: A gigantic humanoid made out of lava and volcanic rock. When it dies, its collapsing body releases a wave of molten rock that threatens to overwhelm its killers.
Rock Monster: Magma titans are gigantic humanoids made out of rock and lava. The one in Book 2 easily shrugs off most attacks, which are deflected harmlessly against the rocky plates covering it, and attacks with powerful crushing blows of its stony hands. It's defeated when a ballista bolt is shot into a crack made into a rock on its chest earlier on, allowing the humans fighting it to tear it out and expose its vulnerable liquid core. Its heart, exposed once it dies, is revealed to be a giant Glowing Gem.

Soulfang Serpents

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screen_shot_2019_12_08_at_102948_pm.png

Cobra-like creatures whose bite strips a creature of its soul.

The Bus Came Back: A two-headed Soulfang Serpent appeared in Book 1 as part of Viren's plan, then quickly ceased to be important. The creatures become relevant again in Book 3 when Callum and Rayla have to cross the Midnight Desert, which is their native habitat.
The Dreaded: They are the most feared creature in the desert. Given one bite can incapacitate a beast big enough to ride on as a mount and turn it into a husk, the fear is justified.
Multiple Head Case: At least one two-headed specimen appears; this condition, which is indeed relatively common in real-life snakes, allows that serpent to hold two souls at the same time rather than just one, enabling it to fuel spells that switch souls between bodies.
Our Zombies Are Different: Their victims don't die when they lose their souls, though their whole body changes to a wasted grey color with glowing green eyes. Such creatures are referred to as "husks" and are considered a good part of why the Midnight Desert is so dangerous.
Snakes Are Sinister: Soulfang Serpents are highly aggressive towards other creatures.
Soul Eating: They feed by draining the souls of creatures they bite, leaving behind only a grey, barely living husk.

The Chrysalis Child

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_being.png

The more developed form of Aaravos's caterpillar. Also called "The Being" and "Sir Sparklepuff".

Ambiguous Gender: Has a somewhat masculine appearance but is never referred to by any specific gender, what with being a Homunculus and all.
Creepy Long Fingers: Has them which adds to the creature's overall creepiness.
Naked on Arrival: Emerges from its cocoon completely nude. Presumably Viren's group provided it with the makeshift Loincloth it is seen wearing from then on.
Our Homunculi Are Different: It serves this role for Viren, a humanoid minion fashioned to guide him in following Aaravos's aims.
Our Phlebotinum Child: In the last episode of Book 5, it turns out that a spell that requires the blood of one of Viren's offspring will also work with its blood, thanks to Viren's blood having been used to make its caterpillar form. Aaravos, as the second contributer of its construction, is its other parent.
Winged Humanoid: It has a set of moth-like wings, though it has yet to use them to actually fly.

Gate Golems

Terbium

Chert

Terbium voiced by: Jason Simpson (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

Chert voiced by: Mark Hildreth (English) ^{Click to see other languages}

Two large stone giants who guard the gates of Umber Tor for Rex Igneous. Though in actuality they are mostly just there to open the great gates.

All There in the Manual: Their names are only given in the credits.
Fat and Skinny: Terbium, is rounded and self important, while Chert is tall and more relaxed.
Like an Old Married Couple: They quickly descend into arguing over trivialities after being introduced and it takes Zubeia putting her claw down, emphasised with a Mighty Roar, to get them to cease.

Deadwood

"Deadwood"/Elmer

Voiced by: Dave Ward (English)

A wooden Golem who serves Finnegin as his guard and top enforcer.

The Big Guy: Towers over elves and humans alike, and usually acts as his boss's blunt instrument.
Bodyguard Betrayal: Turn's against Finnegrin after seeing Soren refuse to stay down, all while telling him that he doesn't have to be a monster like his captain.
Dumb Muscle: He comes across as having a very simplistic understanding of things around him, being very Literal-Minded at times and is mostly valued by Finnegrin for his strength alone. But he isn't as dumb as he appears.
Known Only by Their Nickname: "Deadwood" isn't his real name but it's the main one Finnegrin calls him by whenever he isn't using his myriad of other insults. Before throwing Finnegrin overboard he definitely tells him that his name is Elmer.
Meaningful Name: Elmer, as in the Elm tree.
Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal: Eventually turns on his verbally abusive and controlling captain when Soren makes him realize he can make his own choices.
Punch-Clock Villain: He isn't actually cruel, he simply does whatever his boss commands because he doesn't realize he can refuse him. That is until Soren inspires him to stand up to Finnegrin.
The Un-Smile: After freeing everyone from Finnegrin, Elmer flashes Soren a reassuring grin, but due to his inhumanoid facial features, it winds up looking a bit creepy.

Shadow Monsters

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/corrupted_banther.png

The creatures—animal, elf, and human—infected by the Dark Magic unleashed when Aaravos corrupted the Sunforge.

Our Zombies Are Different: The show's equivalent of zombies, being reduced to savage monsters attacking everything not infected.
The Plague: The corruption spreads like a virus, delivered by infecting wounds the Shadow Monsters inflict on their victims. Janai even compares it to a disease in season five when explaining the threat to Callum and Rayla. After Darkness shows elves succumbing to the corruption within hours of being infected. Even Archdragons are not immune, as Zubeia is seen struggling with the corruption even days after being bitten while rescuing Callum, Rayla, and Amaya from the Great Bookery.
Weakened by the Light: The Shadow Monsters are weakened by sunlight, so they tend to hide within Lux Aurea during the day. Unfortunately, the corruption Aaravos unleashed causes a massive black cloud to emanate from the Sunforge, giving them a place to hide within the city's core.
