What if, using the veined tertiary gene, non-Plague dragons could become Plague by integrating themselves with the Wandering Contagion? The tendril thingies could become part of them (harmlessly) as external veins and basically "inject" Plague magic/goop into their real veins. Every now and then they'd need to "recharge" by drinking from pools in the Scarred Wasteland to get more Plague goop in their external veins.
Uncharged, non-Plague eyes and red-range tert because they haven't drank the soup in a while and the concentration of Plague goop is low:

Charged, Plague eyes and green-range tert because they just drank the soup and now it's flowing through their veins:

Despite me not being Plague, I love this.

this needs to be a subspecies! Maybe the veins also turn their coloration darker red, so the uncharged one is more toned down/browns and the charged version is dark reds!

This! Yes (I don't care if I'm not plague, one of my dragons 'bout to get real funky obsessed with plague and do this lol)

Oooh, that's a really neat idea! I love the idea of dragons changing flights, esp to Plague

That could work with the Plague subspecies too :)
