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, as 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 seemed to care about Fathom very much, as she begged Albatross to let him live.
Biography
Manta was one of the many SeaWings who attended a party hosted in honor of two SkyWing delegates sent to end a border dispute. She and her husband, Reef, were killed shortly after Albatross started the massacre whilst begging for Fathom's life.
