"That's GREAT news! I want her to be angry every day! I want her to wake up annoyed and never feel happy for one minute! I want her to know somebody remembers what she did and she can't just have the throne and do whatever she wants! I want everyone to know someone is fighting her, even if it's ONLY ME!"
— Platypus to Aurora about Beryl, The Hybrid Prince

Platypus, also referred to as the ghost, is a female WildWing who was introduced in The Hybrid Prince. She is the sister of Quokka and currently resides in the Court of Refuge.

Description

According to Umber, Platypus looks like a WildWing. She is spiky all over like Taipan, with dappled gold, dark blue, and black with streaks of phosphorescent green striping her Pyrrhian wings[1] that glows in the dark.[2] Her face is shaped like Quokka's but fiercer. She is smaller than Umber but gave off a bristly air of being older, tougher, and grumpier than him.[1] Platypus can shoot RainWing venom from her teeth and has venom in her claws.[3] She can also camouflage her scales if she concentrates hard enough.[4]

Personality

Platypus is chaotic[5] and often makes jokes.[6] Sora thought that she was a louder and grouchier version of Kinkajou.[7]

Platypus is Quokka's sister. When Beryl and Snakeroot took the throne, they were separated. Beryl treated Quokka like a servant and decalred Platypus dead as a way to punish Platypus for trying to revolt.[10] Platypus thought that Quokka was cowardly for letting herself be pushed around while she could have hid away in the secret passageways with her and fighting back.
