Whites have no issues showing their superiority over the other Fire-Birds do to their added size and superior attitude, Being much like Gold flitts in many respects. White Fire-Birds are the ones that clutch the most eggs out of all of the colors. However, unlike flitts, Fire-Birds are rather particular about their owners and Whites more so then others.
Whites, more often then not, will only let themselves be owned by people who are very ambitious, strong of heart and mind, as well as courageous and have the ability to lead. This is one of the reasons why Weyrwomen, Weyrleaders, Bronze Riders and Gold Riders impress Whites. The largest recorded White Fire-Bird Clutch reported was 50 egg.

Two-tone Fire-birds-Two-toned fire-birds are not very common. A two-toned fire-bird is a bird of two colors. It can be any color from Black-blues to White-Reds. The easiest way to identify an unhatched two-toned fire-bird is the egg. It will often be a mixture of its two colors that swirl constantly like living fire. A hatched two-tone's coloring differs from bird to bird. The colors can fade into each other or swirl around without ever mixing. Because two-tones are the combination of two fire-bird ranks, there is no standard for personalities. For example, there are two Black-Blues. One is very anti-social and loves to play pranks while staying behind the scenes and the second likes the shadows but can be incredibly possessive about his things. Basically, two-tones never have conflicting personalities. A Purple-Red cannot be very mellow yet fiery, but she can be mellow most of the time and possess a very strong temper when pushed to her limit.
Two-tones are often ranked by the highest ranking color they have; however, a Black will always be ranked higher than a Black-blue simply because he does not have a lower rank as a part of his genetic make-up.
Impresses: Depends on Color Combination
Sexuality: Depends on Color combination. Bi most common sexuality
Chased by: Depends on Color combination
Clutches: Can only clutch if one of the colors are White or Gold and even then there is a seventy-five percent chance that the bird will be sterile. White-Golds/White-Purples/Gold-Purples can clutch no matter what.
Rainbow Fire-Birds-Being the rarest color of the Fire-birds, Rainbows are considered a genetic anomaly that has only happened twice in the history of the fire-birds. These Fire-birds are called rainbows because, unlike their other sisters and brothers, these fire-birds do not have a specific color that they stick to. In fact, they seem to contain every fire-bird color at once. Being the rarest doesn’t mean they are the biggest though, these creatures tend only to get four feet in length rather then the usual five or larger like the other colors. Also, this color doesn’t seem to have a set gender. Not that they can change genders, but they can be male or female on hatching. Female Rainbows can not clutch.
Also differing from the other Fire-birds, Rainbow personalities are not set in stone. In all actuality, Rainbows have a serious case of Multiple Personality Disorder. At any given time they may act like a gold and then quickly change personalities to a red or green. They have no set personality for their color because they have the set personalities of every other color. One thing is for sure, these fire-birds are seriously mentally interrupted and they tend to impress to people just as mentally disturbed as they. If that didn't make them the oddballs of the flock, their complete disinterest in flights surely did.
Impresses: People with mental disturbances such as MPD, Anti-Social Personality Disorder, and other mental disorders.
Sexuality: Asexual.
Chases: Doesn’t participate in flights.
Chased by: Doesn’t participate in flights.
