Orchid is a female RainWing who was introduced in The Dark Secret. She and her partner Mangrove currently reside in the Rainforest Kingdom, where they work as fruit gatherers. She was one of the seventeen captive RainWings who were being held prisoner on the NightWing island before being freed by Queen Glory.
Description
During her imprisonment on the NightWing island, she had gray scales that matched the conditions around her.[1]
Personality
Orchid is kind and very loving to Mangrove. She seems to struggle with doubt and anxiety, as she feared that Mangrove would not remember her after she was abducted by the NightWings.[2] However, when the RainWings launched their invasion, Orchid turned bright pink upon seeing Mangrove again, a sign of happiness and love.[3]
Biography
The Dragonet Prophecy
Before Glory and the dragonets had arrived, Orchid and Mangrove were gathering fruit from deep inside the rainforest when Orchid was suddenly kidnapped by the NightWings. Mangrove continually tried to convince Queen Magnificent to send out a search party, but the queen suggested that some other dragon could investigate. When Glory asked around if anyone knew what had happened, one dragon said: "Maybe she's taking a really long nap somewhere." Glory volunteered to search for Orchid, agreeing to look for the other lost members of the tribe as well. After Glory let herself be abducted, she found some of the missing RainWings being experimented on in the Night Kingdom, and deduced that Orchid and the other missing RainWings were there as well.
Orchid was chained to the wall, unconscious, when Mastermind showed Starflight and Fatespeaker around his laboratory. Mastermind then explained that he was trying to see how long the average RainWing could use their venom before running out, but Orchid had fainted before he could get any "useful information". Starflight and Fatespeaker fetched her some water, shocked by the NightWings' treatment of her. Once she regained consciousness, Starflight asked what her name was. Surprised, she replied that no NightWing had ever asked her that before, and then answered "Orchid." He told her that Mangrove was looking for her and to not lose hope. Her scales turned rosy pink with happiness upon hearing his words, making Mastermind curious, as he had never seen a RainWing display happiness on the NightWing island. Later, during the attack on the island, Orchid was freed along with the rest of the imprisoned RainWings. She was happily reunited with Mangrove, and they both returned to the Rainforest Kingdom.
The Jade Mountain Prophecy
When members of the Jade Winglet visited the Rainforest Kingdom, Kinkajou mistook Bromeliad for Orchid, much to her dismay.
Relationships
Orchid respects Queen Glory, as she helped rescue her from the NightWing island and reunite her with her partner Mangrove.
Mangrove is Orchid's partner, and two are very close. Mangrove worried about Orchid so much when she went missing that he neglected his sun time. She was very happy when they reunited, but previously expressed worry that he might not care about her disappearance, choose to move on with a new partner, or not do anything about it; but Mangrove assured her he would never move on. They both returned to the rainforest together.
