Manta

"You look lovely, Indigo."

— Manta to Indigo, during the SkyWing visit in Darkstalker (Legends).

Template:Charbox Princess Manta was an adult female SeaWing and part of the SeaWing Royal Family as Queen Lagoon's niece. She was also of IceWing descent, being Prince Albatross's daughter. Like most of her relatives, she was killed in the Royal SeaWing Massacre whilst begging for Fathom's life alongside Prince Reef.

Personality

Not much is known about Manta's personality, but she was shown to be open-minded and welcoming when she complimented Indigo on a necklace borrowed from Pearl. Before her death, she expressed kindness towards Indigo and Fathom, comforting her son at the party by pointing out his favorite foods on display. She didn't appear to discriminate Indigo for her low-born status or lack of royal heritage, instead welcoming her as if she were part of the family. She seemed to care about her son Fathom very much, unlike some royalty, as she begged Albatross to let him live (although in vain). When Albatross snapped, Manta went after him to try to calm him down, suggesting she is a kind and supportive dragon.
