- — Orca to Coral about Orca's statue, recounted in The Lost Heir
Orca was an adult female SeaWing who was introduced in The Lost Heir. Along with being a princess, she was secretly an animus dragon. She was killed by Queen Coral during a royal challenge.
Appearance
Orca had green scales, and light green webbing and wings, and blue eyes.[citation needed]
Personality
Orca appeared to be power-hungry and extremely ambitious during her lifetime, challenging Coral at the age of seven and using her magic to secure her power over the SeaWing throne.[3] She was disliked by all of Queen Coral's subjects.
Biography
Pre-Series
Before her challenge for the SeaWing throne, Orca enchanted a marble statue that she had sculpted of herself and dedicated to the Royal Hatchery. Coral did not know at that time that Orca had been an animus dragon or that the statue was enchanted to kill off the heirs to the SeaWing throne. Expecting to win, Orca then challenged Coral 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.
After her death, the enchanted statue began killing off all the female heirs in the hatchery for years, murdering the unhatched dragonets in secrecy.
