- — Ochre, to Starflight after Viper fell in the river of lava
Template:Infobox Character Ochre is a male MudWing and a false dragonet of destiny who was intended to serve as the replacement of Clay. However, Clay was deemed "acceptable", so this replacement probably would not have happened. His parents are members of the Talons of Peace. He was described with mahogany-brown scales. Like Clay, he is clumsy, often tripping on things, and je has a gigantic appetite, although he's greedy for food most of the time. He is the second least likely dragonet to be used as a replacement, as Morrowseer and Blister considered not replacing Clay, whom Morrowseer had deemed "acceptable", claiming that they could work with him. Ochre is much lazier and more negative than Clay. Sunny notes that Clay was hungry in cute way, while Ochre was greedy and grouchy about it.
Biography
Ochre is shown in the opening having a pretend fight with the other False Dragonets in the prologue to The Hidden Kingdom. Squid considers Ochre to be a bully, as well as Flame and Viper. In the epilogue, he gets sick from the food the NightWings bring him (he also ate the others' food), and moans that he wants to die. Flame adds that he wants him to die, too, and Viper adds that he "smells ghastly." When Fatespeaker claims she has a "vision", he moans that he doesn't want to hear it.
Ochre first appears when Starflight is introduced to the false dragonets, and he complains about the food. When Morrowseer mentions replacing Fatespeaker with Starflight, Ochre mentions that Starflight seems quiet, which would be nice. Ochre is then ordered by Morrowseer, with the rest of the False Dragonets, to kill Starflight. He and Flame get closest, but are thrown in the NightWing prison for the night until Morrowseer can get them out. When they are supposed to convince the SkyWings to change alliances to Blister, Ochre gorges himself on their food, and one SkyWing thinks that he could be Clay. During the pretend fight, when Viper falls into the lava, Starflight asks him to use his temporary immunity to fire to save her, and Ochre says that he doesn't know if he hatched from a blood-red egg, making Starflight realize that these dragonets were not born on the Brightest Night. During the NightWing Kingdom escape, Ochre asks Starflight if there will be food before he escapes to the rainforest.
When Sunny returns to the Rainforest Kingdom from the Kingdom of Sand, she runs into Ochre, thinking he was Clay. Ochre then accompanies Sunny and Tsunami to the Talons of Peace Camp. He takes a big sack full of tons of fruits and slobbers all over it. When Sunny makes one last attempt to be friendly to him, he accidentally whacks himself in the snout with a pineapple. As of the end of The Brightest Night, he is staying with the Talons of Peace.
