I don't think Samia Inkling has even been stated to be a Dragon. Her model doesn't have the Dragon Eyes that the others Dragon visage's have and she has a last name unlike other dragons. Unless there is new information I think she is just a human working for Sabellian.--Ashendant160 (talk) 21:05, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

There has been a conversation about this on discord, but to make a short summary, she appears as "Samia Inkling" in their human form and as "Samia" in her black dragon form and can be see flying around Valdrakken. There was consensus about the fact that it is obviously her, Samia not being a draconic name, and that she is the only person with the same name among the black dragons who arrived on the Dragon Isles. Regarding the eyes, I agree, she does not have them, but this is also the case for other npcs forgotten by the devs, so it's not a big deal. WardsJames (talk) 21:32, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
There's a black dragon named Samia that flies around Valdrakken. Unless you've got a specific reason to think otherwise, it doesn't seem logical that Samia, the human who hangs around black dragons, and Samia, the black dragon who appears in the same place in the same expansion, are differnet individuals. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 21:35, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
Want to add that her not having dragon eyes could've just been an oversight but there are lots of cases where there are confirmed dragons that don't have these eyes. — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 21:59, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
I'm gonna accept this, but also throw a possible guess that contradicts this. Samia could be named after Samia Inkling, because she was an important character in the establishment of the Obsidian Brood.--Ashendant160 (talk) 22:10, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
Lady Katrana Prestor had a last name and had no draconic eyes... Xporc (talk) 22:01, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
Because she was a vanilla model and these draconic eyes didn't even exist yet. — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 22:04, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
What about Chromie's Dragonflight model then? Xporc (talk) 22:09, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
That's a good example for this case, yea. — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 22:12, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
Lady Katrana Prestor was a disguise so it made sense. Arguably so was Baron Sablemane in Outlands, though they went back and gave him Draconic eyes.--Ashendant160 (talk) 22:10, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
The Samia Inkling persona is a disguise too then Xporc (talk) 22:13, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
