'''Princess Orca''' was a female [[SeaWings|SeaWing]] and the first-born [[Animus Dragons|animus]] daughter of [[Queen Coral]] and [[King Gill]]. [[Princess Tsunami|Tsunami]], [[Princess Anemone|Anemone]], [[Princess Auklet|Auklet]], and many unnamed daughters of Queen Coral, who were killed before they hatched or soon after hatching, are her younger sisters. Unknown to anyone, Orca was secretly an animus, and she plotted to use it to her advantage in a plan to take the SeaWing throne from Coral. Before the events of the [[books]], she was defeated and killed by her mother when she challenged her for the SeaWing throne. Despite being seven she was confident she would win, but she was accidentally impaled by the narwhal horn strapped to her mother's tail during the challenge and died. She gave a [[Orca's Statue|statue]] to the [[Royal Hatchery]] before she died, and unknown to the SeaWings, it had been enchanted to assassinate all eggs in the hatchery that were female, leaving the male eggs untouched. This was due to the fact that she had expected to win and become queen. Without heirs, she could rule the throne for generations and not worry about any challengers. This backfired when her mother killed her by stabbing her with a narwhal horn, so Queen Coral lived on without any daughters, until she successfully hatched [[Princess Anemone]] and Tsunami returned and found out the truth about the statue a few years later. They confirmed it when Anemone used her animus powers to reveal who enchanted the statue, and later that day the statue was destroyed.

Before the challenge, she enchanted a statue of herself she had sculpted and dedicated to the Royal Hatchery. Her mother had no idea she was an animus dragon at the time. Its function was to kill off any of the remaining female heirs, preventing any royal sisters from hatching that may try to take her spot as queen of the SeaWings. Orca thought she would win, but she didn't, so the statue was now working Queen Coral's favor in the dark of the night. Tsunami later defeated the statue. Once she explained it to Coral, she and Anemone completely smashed it to pieces.
Before her challenge for the SeaWing throne, Orca enchanted a [[Orca's statue|marble statue]] that she had sculpted of herself and dedicated to the [[Deep_Palace#Royal_Hatchery|Royal Hatchery]]. Coral did not know at that time that Orca had been an animus [[Dragons|dragon]] or that the statue was enchanted to kill off the heirs to the SeaWing throne. Expecting to win, Orca then challenged her mother for the throne of the SeaWings, nearly winning, which shocked Coral. She was accidentally speared with the narwhal horn Coral wore on the end of her tail and died.


Queen Coral still loved and missed Orca, despite the fact that she nearly killed her. According to Queen Coral, Orca was a very talented sculptor. The queen also wrote her first scroll based on the event titled "[[The Tragedy of Orca]]". A tiny bit of this story was recited during [[Whirlpool]] and Tsunami's first [[Aquatic]] lesson.    
After her death, the enchanted statue began killing off all the female heirs in the hatchery for years, murdering the unhatched dragonets in secrecy before it was defeated and destroyed.
