What a Regal dragon looks like
Regal is a recessive accent morph, graded Mythic, well above the Rare a recessive morph usually gets.
Accent genes add something of their own without moving the main markings, so Regal stacks with every other gene.
Nothing in the game today hides Regal: a dragon with two copies always shows it.
With Bone Horns on the same dragon, the gold wins over Bone Horns' ivory.
How to breed a Regal dragon
Regal is recessive: a dragon shows it only with two copies of the gene, one from each parent. With one copy it looks Normal but carries Regal hidden, a het, and passes it to half its babies.
What het means here: a baby that looks Normal from het × het carries Regal 67% of the time, so the game labels it "67% het Regal", a possible het. From het × Normal that is 50%, and every baby of a Regal × Normal is a proven het. Hets and possible hets explains how those numbers move.
To prove a possible het, pair it with a Regal. One Regal baby proves it at once. Each Normal baby lowers the chance but never to zero: after three Normal babies in a row, a 67% het Regal falls to 20%.
Where to get a Regal dragon
Regal comes from one place: the Lava Crate. 2% of Lava Crates hold a dragon showing it, and no other crate or import carries the gene.
The Lava Crate costs 250 Embers, the currency bought with real money, and it is on sale for a limited time. The free track of the Daily Pass gives one sealed on days 7 and 30, and a Wooden Crate holds one sealed 1 in 1,000 times.
