Turtle
Template:Infobox Character Turtle is a male SeaWing dragonet and a student at the Jade Mountain Academy. He is one of Tsunami's many brothers. He is noted to be plump and 'dark green, like an emerald hidden in a cave, with flashes of brighter green underscales and hints of gold in his eyes'. He is also believed to be the SeaWing in the water of the Moon Rising cover. He wears a golden armband studded with pieces of skyfire. He will be the main protagonist of Book 9.
Biography
When Moon first sees Turtle, she sees a vision of him pinning Anemone down while she writhes in pain. Then when the vision ends Anenome and Turtle and the entire SeaWing family disappears. After Moon reveals that she can see the future and read minds, Turtle is the only one who doesn't get mad or runs away. He takes Moon to the lake at the bottom of Jade Mountain and helps her wash her wound on her shoulder when she got hit by a piece in the explosion of the dragonflame cactus. Moon tells Turtle that she can't hear his thoughts, in which Turtle laughs and Moon pleads Turtle to lead her to her clawmate's room. On their way, they pass the history cave and hear voices from inside (Tsunami and Sunny). After listening to half of Tsunami and Sunny's argument, Turtle reveals himself and tells Tsunami about the dragonflame cactus. He notes that this particular cactus was used in the Summer Palace attack from the SkyWings and his mother, Queen Coral, tortured a SkyWing as prisoner until she found out.
Later Moon meets him and notices that she can't read his mind, due to the fact that he has an armband with Skyfire stones. At the end of Moon Rising he gives one stone to each member of the Jade Winglet.

Personality
Turtle seems to be laid back and complacent, happy to go along with what others want. Qibli notes that he "is used to be invisible, "almost even prefers it." He is also undisturbed by violence, causally talking about how his mother tortured a captive SkyWing and treating the Dragonflame Cactus with curiosity despite the horrible things it was used for.
Trivia
- He may be the main Protagonist of Book 9.

"Whatever you guys decide."
"Kind of a cool evolutionary adaptation if you're a plant trying to survive on a mountain with fire breathing dragons, right?........But of course, horrible."
"You're a MIND READER. All you have to do is walk around until you hear someone's mind going 'Well done me. Tip top explosion I caused today. Aren't I a clever arsonist.'"
