Snapper
Template:SpoilerToP Template:Charbox Snapper was a former female SeaWing guard of the royal eggs, who was mentioned in Talons of Power. She was Abalone's deputy chief.
In the prologue, King Gill sends Prince Turtle to find Snapper as quickly as possible and tell her to guard the eggs. Turtle fails to find Snapper, and the female eggs die as a result of this. Queen Coral then has Snapper and Abalone executed.
In chapter one, Turtle mentions Snapper in his thoughts, remembering how he had failed to find her.
Turtle also mentions that the day after his failure, the enchanted coral used to find lost things dragged him along until it found and bumped itself against Snapper's corpse.
It was revealed by Queen Coral near the end of Talons of Power that when Turtle was searching for her, she was at the Summer Palace, not at the Deep Palace like she was supposed to be. Because of that it was not mainly Turtle's fault that he could not find her, and she was given an extra painful death due to disobedience.
