Pearl was the sister of [[Prince Fathom|Fathom]] and one of the [[dragonets]] chosen for [[Animus Dragons|animus]] testing, which later became the [[Talons of Power Ceremony]]. She tried to shush [[Indigo]] multiple times as they waited, and was the one to point out that it was Fathom's coconut that had hit [[Albatross]] in the chest.

She tried to shush [[Indigo]] multiple times as they waited, and was the one to point out that it was Fathom's coconut that had hit [[Albatross]] in the chest.


During [[The Royal SeaWing Massacre]], she used the glass from the shattered aquariums to cut herself, covering herself in blood. This caused the insane Albatross to walk right past her, believing she was already dead. After Albatross was killed, she emerged from her hiding place under a tipped-over couch and claimed her new role as [[Dragon Queens|queen]] of the SeaWings. Her first decree was to outlaw animus magic throughout the [[Kingdom of the Sea|Kingdom]]. Her brother, Fathom, made a blood oath to her, promising never to use his magic again as long as he lived and never have dragonets, which she told him meant he had to stay away from Indigo, whom he was in love with. She then appointed Indigo to be the head of her personal guard.

He reported that the NightWings had an animus and that he was overusing his powers. This animus was the then-young [[King Darkstalker|Darkstalker]]. To avoid a similar tragedy from occurring in the [[The Lost City of Night|Night Kingdom]], Pearl sent Fathom (with Indigo, [[Wharf]], and [[Lionfish]] as his guards) to the Night Kingdom, and assigned Fathom to train Darkstalker and to warn him of the price of using his magic.

"I mean, how am I supposed to trust you, Fathom? Whenever I look at you, I see everything he did. Won't you always be tempted to use your magic? What would stop you? What could ever stop you?"
— Queen Pearl to Fathom, Darkstalker

(Not to be confused with Pearl, the current SeaWing royal treasurer and a member of Queen Coral's Council.)Template:Charbox Queen Pearl was a young female SeaWing who was introduced in Darkstalker (Legends). She ascended the throne at the age of five after the Royal SeaWing Massacre, as the last remaining heir.

Appearance

In Darkstalker (Legends), Pearl was described as "glittering with coils of gemstones, long twisted ropes of pearls and opals and sapphires circling her torso and ankles".

Biography

Pearl was the sister of Fathom and one of the dragonets chosen for animus testing, which later became the Talons of Power Ceremony. She tried to shush Indigo multiple times as they waited, and was the one to point out that it was Fathom's coconut that had hit Albatross in the chest.

During The Royal SeaWing Massacre, she used the glass from the shattered aquariums to cut herself, covering herself in blood to play dead. After Albatross was killed, she emerged from her hiding place and claimed her new role as queen of the SeaWings. Her first decree was to outlaw animus magic throughout the Kingdom. Fathom made a blood oath to her, promising never to use his magic again as long as he lived and never have dragonets, which she told him meant he had to stay away from Indigo, whom he was in love with. She then appointed Indigo to be the head of her personal guard.

About a year later Current, another survivor of the massacre, returned from being held as a "guest" of the queen of the NightWings. He reported that the NightWings had an animus and that he was using his powers. To avoid a similar tragedy from occurring in the Night Kingdom, Pearl sent Fathom (with Indigo, Wharf, and Lionfish as his guards) to the Night Kingdom, and assigned Fathom to train Darkstalker and to warn him of the price of using his magic.

It is unknown what happened to her after the events of Darkstalker (Legends). It is possible that one of Fathom's dragonets challenged her, as the current line of SeaWings is descended from Fathom.

She is mentioned in the book when Moon is reading a scroll titled The Animus Histories, which explains that Pearl was Fathom's sister, the granddaughter of Albatross, and one of the few dragons who survived the massacre. It says that Pearl became queen peacefully and ruled for many years.
