'''Princess''' '''Orca''' was the first-born animus daughter of [[Queen Coral]] and [[King Gill]], therefore the oldest sister of [[Princess Tsunami|Tsunami]], [[Princess Anemone|Anemone]], and [[Princess Auklet|Auklet]]. She hid her animus powers from her [[Queen Coral|mother]]. Before the book she was killed by her mother when she challenged her for the [[SeaWings|SeaWing]] throne; the moment she was old enough at 7 years old. She donated a statue to the royal hatchery before she died, which she had enchanted to kill off all the female heirs, for she expected to become queen. Without heirs, she could rule the throne for generations and not worry about any challengers.
