Pike

"But the princess wants that fish!"

— Pike to Clay, Moon Rising

Pike is a young male SeaWing dragonet who was introduced in Moon Rising. He is a student at Jade Mountain Academy as a member of the Gold Winglet, as well as a covert guard under Coral with orders to keep Anemone safe from harm.

Appearance

Pike has grayish-blue scales and a nick in one ear. He is skinny and slightly smaller than Tamarin.

Personality

Throughout Moon Rising, Pike initiated conflict over several small matters. He is fierce, overly protective, and seemingly completely loyal to Anemone and Coral. However, he is also compassionate, as he attempted to comfort Tamarin after she was injured in an explosion. According to Moonwatcher, his thoughts begin and trail off into one another very quickly and abruptly, and as Moonwatcher described, "like a herd of raging rhinoceroses". Turtle noted that he tries too hard in combat classes at the Academy and often hurts himself in the process.

Pike also takes his job as a covert guard very seriously, and was horrified when Anemone left Jade Mountain Academy with Darkstalker without his own knowing. He is terrified of Coral and what punishment she might have administered to him if he ever failed to protect Anemone.

Biography

The Jade Mountain Prophecy

Moon Rising

Pike first appeared when he came close to fighting with Carnelian, thinking that she may have been a part of the army that destroyed the Summer Palace. Clay stepped in, sending Carnelian to her room and taking Pike with him for a walk. He later appeared in another argument when Anemone requested to have the fish that the NightWing Bigtail, also Pike's clawmate, had already selected. When Bigtail hesitated, saying that he had already chosen it, Pike leaped to Anemone's defense, telling Bigtail to give it to her. Clay came over and stopped him, but Pike told Bigtail that he would pay for what he did. After the explosion in the history cave occurred, Pike saved Tamarin from dying by submerging her body in the underground lake, which he learned by watching other SeaWings after the Summer Palace was destroyed by Burn's forces. At the assembly, Moonwatcher read his mind and realized that Pike thought of himself as Anemone's guard. Moon described Pike's thoughts as a stampede of raging rhinoceros. He also thought about Tamarin, pitying her. Pike was suspected to be assigned by Queen Coral to protect Anemone, even though she herself was one of the most dangerous dragons at Jade Mountain Academy. This was confirmed in Talons of Power.

Talons of Power

Pike was shown swimming in the underground lake with Anemone and Tamarin when Turtle came to warn his sister about Darkstalker. He was seen to be kind towards Tamarin and cared about her well being, as well as protective to Anemone, as usual. Anemone said that he was sleeping outside of her door when she left to go to the rainforest. He was also in Turtle's flashback of the Talons of Power ceremony, wanting to help Anemone. He is shown as a three-year-old during the Talons of Power ceremony and is noted to take training too seriously, often fighting too hard in training sessions and frequently hurting himself accidentally.

Darkness of Dragons

Pike burst into the history class searching for Anemone. When he heard that Anemone has followed Darkstalker, he clutched his head in horror and exclaimed that he had to go after her, commenting that Coral would feed him to the sharks. Webs forced him to stay for the class, as they had enough students missing already. During the epilogue, it was mentioned that following the her soul spell, Anemone began acting much less burdened, laughing and teasing Pike.
