Hey, everyone!
What color will be the children of dragons of different colors?
Googled today, for some reason I always thought that Alexstrasza was Nozdormu’s wife, it turned out that Alexstrasza had many husbands, and Nozdormu has another main wife? I just wanted to know the color of their children.
It seems to me that if, for example, a black dragon and a blue one fall in love with each other, they have a 50% chance that the female will lay a black or blue egg, right?
Hahaha he still sadmad he got owned in PvP. Bahahahahahaha
Yeah probably.
I’d think that since the Dragonflights are influenced by magic, their nature will be dependent on the proximity to the aspect magic. Although since now they’ve switched from Order to whatever source of Azerothian Magic they’re using (spirit maybe?), I’m not sure if anything of that would’ve changed but I doubt it.
lmao. is what I think every time I see a “hug a tauren” thread.
There is a lore based answer to your question, but Blizzard has done w/e they want in recent years with lore, so, yea… Some intern over there could change it all tomorrow.
In Dawn of the Aspects, Malygos is the narrator, and the first time he meets Alextraza, he immediately notes she is female and red… he then IMMEDIATELY informs the reader he has zero interest in her as a mate, because she is red. This happens in like, the first 20 pages or so.
There are many hybrids in the game from mixing different races, sometimes even alien races, what does mating have to do with it, I’m talking about something sublime, about love.
Either they can’t breed with a different color dragon, or it’s so rare that we never see such hybrid dragons anywhere. Or nature just flips a coin and decides on a single color for the egg/hatchling.
I don’t think there’s much of anything definitive on the subject so all we can really do is speculate.
Edit: remember that it took Nefarian hundreds (thousands?) of years to create his blended-color Chromatic Dragons, and those were considered an abomination and an affront to nature and we ended up destroying them all in the raid on Blackwing Lair.
I like this version the most.
Honestly I’d assume it would just follow the mothers color due to proximity to her directly.
Like the color of the rooster who impregnates a chicken doesn’t influence the chickens egg color as far as I know.
I doubt that you are asking this in good faith but on the extreme off-chance that you are, there is an answer to it: dragons who mate outside of their respective flights don’t have spawn, either because it is so rare so it is undocumented, or their mate that they end up having is of another race completely creating non-dragon but rather draconic hybrids instead (some Dragonspawn and Drakonids are supposedly examples of this according to Khadgar).
Any non-original dragonflights were created via external forces, or come from entirely different non-aspectial dragonflights. Netherwings and Stormdrakes are examples of this but there’s a near endless number of smaller non-aspectial flights to use as examples. But they are still their own thing, and not any kind of “hybrid” flight.
This is the only truly “hybrid” (or rather chromatic) flight … but it is also entirely artificial and was created as an experiment by Nefarian. The reason it was an abomination is that Nefarian via torture, magic, and selective and painful breeding bred forth his chromatic flight. But it isn’t a self-sustaining flight.
So this means there’s not any real hybrid flights, or dragons to speak of. And anyone who could classify would likely fall into a different, non-dragon but rather draconic, category instead.
Im pretty positive its the same as the color chart. so if a blue and yellow dragon mate it makes a green dragon.
I thought about that too.
Depends who’s writing it.
They could follow any previous examples in lore if there are any or make their own.
lmao.
