Biography

Assassin

Piranha was first seen coming out of the water next to Commander Tempest, and was seen as her third-in-command. She seemed to care a lot about her commander, and she "shrieked with rage" when Tempest died. She became furious at the MudWings, thinking that they murdered Tempest.

The Lost Heir

After Kestrel's corpse was found a few islands away from the Summer Palace, Queen Coral ordered Commander Shark and Piranha to fly with her to the body.

Afterwards, Coral called the SeaWing Council to a Council meeting. It was there that Tsunami realizes she was the War Commander, as she sat in the war pool. Piranha reported to Coral that there was still "no info on the dead SkyWing." She then brought in two wounded soldiers (one of them being Herring's Brother) and tells them to report about a recent battle they had with the SkyWings to Coral.

Later, when Webs arrived at the Summer Palace, Piranha captured a SeaWing suspiciously lurking around the same area. This SeaWing turns out to be Riptide, and both Webs and Riptide are imprisoned in the Electric Eel Prison.

Quotes
