'''Princess Orca''' was a female [[SeaWings|SeaWing]] princess and the first-born princess of [[Queen Coral]] and [[King Gill]]. [[Princess Tsunami]], [[Princess Anemone]], and [[Princess Auklet]] are currently the only surviving daughters of Queen Coral and King Gill, but eleven unnamed daughters were killed before they could hatch, or soon after. 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 Queen Coral. Before the events of [[The Dragonet Prophecy (Book)|The Dragonet Prophecy]], she was defeated and killed by her mother when she challenged her to the SeaWing throne. Despite being only seven, she was confident she would win, but she was accidentally impaled by the narwhal horn that was strapped to her mother's tail during the challenge and died due to the wound. 


She dedicated a [[Orca's Statue|statue]] to the [[Royal Hatchery]] shortly before she died. Unknown to any SeaWings, it had been enchanted to assassinate all the [[Dragon Eggs|eggs]] in the hatchery that were female. 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 plan however backfired when her mother killed her, so Queen Coral lived on without any daughters until she successfully hatched Princess Anemone. About a year later, Princess Tsunami returned back to the Sea Kingdom and found out the truth about the statue. They confirmed it when Anemone used her animus powers to reveal who enchanted the statue, and later that day the statue was destroyed. And thus, Princess Auklet was hatched safely.

Right before the challenge for the throne, Orca had enchanted a marble statue of herself she had sculpted and dedicated to the Royal Hatchery. Her mother had no idea that she was an animus dragon at the time, which allowed her sinister enchantment to escape the queen's notice. Its function was to kill off any of the remaining female heirs, preventing any royal sisters (and possibly future daughters) from hatching that may try to take her place as queen of the SeaWings. Orca assumed she would win her challenge for the throne, but due to an unlucky accident, Queen Coral killed Orca by spearing her with the narwal horn she wore on the end of her tail. Her dying words were ''"I did this all wrong. You're going to rule forever, aren't you, Mother?... You should thank me...no one can stop you now."'' Her last words referred to how the statue was now working Queen Coral's favor in the dark of the night, killing off all her heirs. Tsunami later defeated the statue. Once she explained it to Coral, she and Anemone completely smashed it to pieces.


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 chapter of this story was recited during [[Whirlpool]] and Tsunami's first [[Aquatic]] lesson.
