6 colors
The six familiar dragon colors are black, blue, brown, green, orange and red. Each has its own collection in the official Dragonkind shop, and all six appear in Hayakawa’s guide to the books. These sources identify the names; they do not give the probability of receiving a color in the game. For color-specific help, explore black dragon reports and the dragon colors and tails guide.
| Color | Dragonkind source | Book source |
|---|---|---|
| Black | Official black collection | Publisher’s dragon guide |
| Blue | Official blue collection | Publisher’s dragon guide |
| Brown | Official brown collection | Publisher’s dragon guide |
| Green | Official green collection | Publisher’s dragon guide |
| Orange | Official orange collection | Publisher’s dragon guide |
| Red | Official red collection | Publisher’s dragon guide |
Read the color printed on your bond card. Lighting and background art can make a screenshot look different from its written label. Save both the label and image in your run journal.
5 adult tails
The five tail shapes in this reference are Clubtail, Daggertail, Morningstartail, Scorpiontail and Swordtail. The publisher’s guide names each separately. Feathertails need their own explanation below rather than being treated as a sixth interchangeable adult battle tail.
| Tail | Source | What the source establishes |
|---|---|---|
| Clubtail | Hayakawa: Clubtail | Listed as a tail shape in the publisher’s book guide. |
| Daggertail | Hayakawa: Daggertail | Listed as a tail shape in the publisher’s book guide. |
| Morningstartail | Hayakawa: Morningstartail | Listed as a tail shape in the publisher’s book guide. |
| Scorpiontail | Hayakawa: Scorpiontail | Listed as a tail shape in the publisher’s book guide. |
| Swordtail | Hayakawa: Swordtail | Listed as a tail shape in the publisher’s book guide. |
Record color and tail in separate fields in your notes. A phrase such as “black Morningstartail” combines two descriptions; it is not a rarity score.
Can you get every combo?
Rebecca Yarros’s official Dragonkind FAQ says players have the opportunity to bond with dragons of all colors and tail types. That answers the availability question broadly. The FAQ does not list every color–tail pairing, show a probability table or promise that any choice sequence will produce a particular combination.
The 6 × 5 table below is an inference from those two lists. It is useful for organising result cards, but it should not be read as thirty individually documented outcomes or an equal one-in-thirty chance.
Irid & feathertail (gold)
Searches for a “Dragonkind irid” or a “gold dragon” often mix the books with the game. The official FAQ’s broad wording does not specifically name an irid or golden result, and the sources here do not establish a route that awards one.
Show Andarna and later-book dragon lore
Andarna first appears as a golden feathertail. Later books identify her with the irids, the seventh den. Gold appearance, feathertail shape and irid identity describe different aspects of that story; they are not interchangeable game categories. The Book Feed’s Andarna explanation follows those distinctions.
Hayakawa’s publisher guide states that dragons are born as feathertails. Later irid lore also complicates the idea that every feathertail is simply an immature dragon: some irids retain that shape. Keep this book history separate from a claim about which bond cards Dragonkind currently awards.
Which is rarest?
No official Dragonkind odds table was found in the sources checked on October 4, 2026. Black dragons have a reputation for rarity in the books, as the publisher’s guide explains. That is a statement about the fictional world, not a measured drop rate in the browser game.
A collection of shared screenshots can show that a result has been reported. It cannot establish rarity without knowing how those reports were collected, how many attempts were made and which results were left out. For the claims around black results, see the black dragon guide.
Color × tail reference table
Inference, not a confirmed distribution: six color labels multiplied by five tail labels produce thirty entries to compare. “Inferred pairing” means a slot in this reference table, not an independently confirmed game result.
| Color | Clubtail | Daggertail | Morningstartail | Scorpiontail | Swordtail |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Black | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing |
| Blue | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing |
| Brown | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing |
| Green | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing |
| Orange | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing |
| Red | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing | Inferred pairing |
When comparing cards, keep the date, exact color and exact tail wording together. Add the source of a shared card so it remains possible to distinguish your own result from somebody else’s report.
FAQ
What are the six Dragonkind dragon colors?
Black, blue, brown, green, orange and red are the six colors in the official Dragonkind merchandise collections and the publisher’s guide to the books. The official FAQ says all colors and tail types are possibilities.
What are the five adult dragon tail types?
Clubtail, Daggertail, Morningstartail, Scorpiontail and Swordtail are the five tail shapes listed in this guide, each sourced to Hayakawa Publishing’s dragon reference.
What is the rarest dragon in Dragonkind?
No official game odds table was found as of October 4, 2026. Book lore about rare black dragons and small samples of player cards cannot establish the game’s probability distribution.
Can you get a gold or irid dragon in Dragonkind?
The sources checked do not establish a route to a gold or irid game result. Andarna’s golden feathertail appearance and irid identity belong to the book lore; the official FAQ does not name those results separately.
