Queen Black Dragon

The Queen Black Dragon is an incredibly large, powerful, and dangerous monster. It's been said that the Queen Black Dragon was created by the Dragonkin. She can be accessed by an underground cave just north of Rimmington at a cave in the White Knights Encampment.You won't need to finish (or start) Song from the Depths to enter the Grotworm Lair in which she resides, but the quest will give some advantages when encountering the dragon. To quickly get to the lair you can use Remora's necklace to teleport near the entrance of the cave once a day.

According to the news post for Song from the Depths, the dragon is to be released on the week beginning 28 May. Mod Chris L also hinted that the fight wouldn't be as challenging as Nex, but almost as challenging due to it being a solo fight. Mod Element, on the day 'Song from the Depths' was released, stated "The QBD will be very extreme compared to other bosses". It is also recommended the player should have a combat level of at least 120. Mod Chris L also said in a recent interview that the boss will be "no easy feat to conquer" and that its statistics were based on Nex's. Mod Edam stated it will be instanced, you'll only be able to fight it on your own. The Dragon kiteshield is a potential reward from killing this beast, as well as a new range of dragon orientated items including draconic armour.

The Queen Black Dragon is going to have a 60 Summoning requirement, and be less of an endurance fight and more like a Nomad-type fight, featuring dodging attacks.

With the release of Song from the Depths, the Coral crossbow is a reward that is used along with Coral bolts to help defeat the Queen Black Dragon. It is unknown how it will help at the moment, though. Another reward from Song from the Depths is reduced damaged from her, so it is advised to complete the quest before you venture to defeat the Queen Black Dragon.

As of 18 May 2012 Jagex released their first Behind the Scenes in video. This video is all about the future release of the Queen Black Dragon and can be found here.

The Queen Black Dragon will be the largest monster in Runescape beating monsters such as the Corporeal beast, as well as being the highest level monster ingame, surpassing even Nex.

Trivia
Queen Black Dragon
 * As stated in the Behind the Scenes - May article, the Queen Black Dragon is so big that 5 King Black Dragons can fit in her mouth alone; however, she isn't quite that big in Song from the Depths or the concept art.
 * As mentioned in a players YouTube pod cast (Rune shark) with the lead developer it was suggested that the Queen Black Dragon's drops would be more valuable than Nex's Excluding the rare items such as the Ancient armours and in higher quantity bundles.
 * The Queen Black Dragon is the 6th boss (not quest boss) monster that requires a skill level to fight. The other five were the original GWD bosses, and Nex.
 * Along with that, she is the only boss that is instanced (not including quest bosses). This is probably due to the fact that many players do not have the ability to fight many bosses or is hard to find a group.
 * The platform upon which the Queen Black Dragon is fought is the Stone of Jas emblem.
 * In her belly, there are skeletons that resemble Dragonkin and Cyclopes.
