'''Ochre''' is a male [[MudWings|MudWing]] and one of the [[The False Dragonets|false Dragonets]] of Destiny. He was the second least likely dragonet to be used as a replacement, as [[Morrowseer]] and [[Princess Blister|Blister]] considered not replacing [[Clay]]. Ochre's parents are members of the [[Talons of Peace]]. He Is described with mahogany-brown scales{{Ref|TBN|205}}. Like Clay, he is described as clumsy, often tripping on things, and he has a gigantic appetite, although he's greedy for food most of the time and is more pushy and rude. Ochre is much lazier and negative than Clay. [[Princess Sunny|Sunny]] feels that while Clay was hungry in a cute and embarrassing way, Ochre was greedy and grouchy about it, as it was seen in ''The Brightest Night ''when Ochre even made a pouch to carry fruit in that hung from his neck so he could eat and fly at the same time.

During the escape from the NightWing Kingdom, Ochre asked Starflight if there would be food before he escapes to the rainforest.

*Ochre is a type of mineral in the earth like clay, but in a powdery substance. It has a red-brown or yellow-brownish hue. It is also a shade of brown.
*Similar to the rest of the false dragonets, Ochre's hatching day was not on the brightest night, but a few weeks before it.
*He has the same hatching day as Flame.
*Ochre is pronounced O-KER.
*Ochre was mentioned in ''Talons of Power'', though not by a correct name. Mindreader said Flame was thinking about how he had help from another dragon with a weird name (Ogre and Okra were her guesses).
*It is possible that he was one of the Talons of Peace members who ambushed Peril and Turtle in ''Escaping Peril''. Nothing so far confirms this suspicion.
*Ochre appears to be the stereotypical MudWing, as he is always hungry and tired.
*Ochre is specifically hated by Flame.
*It is unknown if Ochre is born from a blood red egg, and has fire proof scales like Clay.
*Ochre is one of two known MudWings named after a shade of brown, the other being Sepia.

"I will never never never go a whole month without eating."
— Ochre to Starflight after being told that dragons can survive a month without eating, The Dark Secret

Ochre is an adult male MudWing who was introduced in The Hidden Kingdom. He was formerly part of the false dragonets of destiny organized by Morrowseer as the replacement for Clay. He is currently a member of the Talons of Peace.

Description

Ochre has dark[1] mahogany-brown scales[2] and dull eyes.[3] When Fatespeaker introduced Starflight to the false dragonets, she called him "the fat one,"[4] which corresponds with how he is shown to be eating both a lot and often.

Personality

Ochre is described as being clumsy, uncaring, greedy, pushy,[5] unlikeable,[5] disagreeable,[5] and pessimistic. Sunny describes him as the unfunny and unpleasant version of Clay[5] and even during their first encounter, she felt there was something about him that rubbed her the wrong way.[2] He is shown to have a voracious appetite and refuses to share with anyone else.[6] Flame referred to him as an idiot.[7]

Biography

The Dragonet Prophecy

The Lost Heir
Ochre was indirectly mentioned when Morrowseer had Nautilus explain to Blister about the set of alternate dragonets.
The Hidden Kingdom

Ochre had a partial fight with the other false dragonets in the prologue. Squid considered Ochre to be a bully, as well as Flame and Viper.

In the epilogue, Ochre got sick from the food the NightWings had brought him and moaned that he wanted to die. Flame added that he wanted him to die, too, and Viper added that he "smells ghastly." When Fatespeaker claimed she had a "vision" about food, he moaned that he did not want to hear it.
The Dark Secret
Ochre first appeared when Starflight was introduced to the false dragonets, complaining about the food. When Morrowseer mentioned replacing Fatespeaker with Starflight, Ochre mentioned that Starflight seemed quiet, which would be nice. Ochre was then ordered by Morrowseer, with the rest of the False Dragonets, to kill Starflight. He and Flame got close but were thrown in the NightWing prison for the night until Morrowseer got them out. When they were supposed to convince the SkyWings to change alliances to Blister, Ochre gorged himself on their food, and one SkyWing thought that he could be Clay, showing how little attention they paid to MudWings. During the pretend fight, when Viper fell into the lava, Starflight asked him to use his partial immunity to fire to save her, and Ochre said that he did not know if he hatched from a blood-red egg, making Starflight realize that these dragonets were not born on the brightest night. During the escape from the NightWing island, Ochre asked Starflight if there would be food right before escaping to the rainforest.
The Brightest Night
When Sunny returned to the Rainforest Kingdom from the Kingdom of Sand, she ran into Ochre, thinking he was Clay. Ochre then accompanied Sunny and Tsunami to the Talons of Peace camp. He took a big sack full of fruits and slobbered all over it. When Sunny made one last attempt to be friendly to him, he accidentally whacked himself in the snout with a pineapple obnoxiously. In the end, he decided to stay with the Talons of Peace.

The Jade Mountain Prophecy

Talons of Power
It was revealed that Ochre had somehow helped Flame steal the dreamvisitor from Starflight when Mindreader read Flame's mind.
