Queen Acropora is an adult female Seawing who is introduced in Shattered Soul. She is the queen of the Seawings, and the only known queen to not get involved with nor like fights. She resides in both the Deep sea Palace and the Island palace with her children. 
== Description ==
Acropora is tall for a Seawing, with turquoise scales. She has salmon colored wings with royal swirl markings under them. Her gills are also a salmon pink along with the webs on her feet. She has light glowing scales on her body, which she passes to her son, Brinicle. Acropora has a crown of pearls on her head and a pearl bracelet on her wrist. Her tail has rings of gold on it. Her eyes are a dark blue, another trait she gives to her son. She has a soft and warm voice said to just about calm any animal.
== Personality ==
Acropora is graceful, poised, charming, kind, sweet, helpful, extremely intelligent, but also a bit naive and ditzy. Brinicle describes her as "fun and loving but also silly at the same time." Acropora takes great care in her writing, as she sometimes stays up late long after everyone has gone to bed just so she can look over her work and makes sure to fix any errors.
Acropora appears to be somewhat sensitive as well, such as when her son, Bay, brought up his father and she stopped her work to take a few minutes to grieve. She has Hemophobia as she can't stand being near blood. She also prefers peace over violence, as she's kept her tribe from getting into too many fights. Acropora also loves teaching the younger generation and takes great pride in their learning.
Acropora appears to be close to her children, more specifically Brinicle. She always protects them but she isn't afraid to point out what they did wrong. A lot of her subjects have described her as fair.
== Biography ==
=== Pre Series===
Acropora was born in 6,046, 1000 years after the current events. She was born to an Unknown Seawing queen and her mate. Being the only child meant she had no siblings to challenge her. At the age of 8, Acropora challenged her mother for the throne. While she didn't kill her, she outsmarted her and ascended to the throne. Sometime later, she met and married a male Seawing. The two had 11 eggs together, 4 of which consisted of named dragonets: Bay, Abzu, Axolotl, and Amphirite. After Axolotl turned 2, her mate was killed under unknown circumstances. Acropora stopped her work, and allowed her best friend, Ai, to rule the kingdom for a few days so that she could grieve.
About 3 years after, the Queen met Amur, an Icewing soilder general, who served under Queen Crystalline. He was sent with some Icewing executives to make plans for trade between the Icewings and the Seawings. A fleet of Icewings attacked the Palace, which the Seawings defended alongside the Icewing guards. Amur protected Acropora before she could get hurt, which she greatly appreciated. The two fall in love and mate. They have an egg, who hatches into a son, who Acropora names Brinicle. Amur (who was struggling with the heat) decides to move back to the Ice kingdom, even though it means leaving his beloved mate. While heartbroken, Acropora realized it was better for him. They kept in touch through letters.
===Shattered Soul ===
When Brinicle turned 4 years old, he was put through the Talons of Power trial, but was revealed to not be an animus. Because of his heritage, he was often shunned and teased by the other dragonets, with only Axolotl, Amphirite, and Abzu actually liking him. When Brinicle was 10, he decided to move with his father.
Queen Acropora was reluctant to have him leave due to the fear of losing her son. But she let him go after realizing he wasn't happy there. Like with his dad, the two wrote letters to each other everyday. Acropora became a victim to Freezeburn, an animus Icewing. He held her captive and only agreed to let her go if Brinicle could defeat him in combat. When Brinicle was almost killed in the battle, Acropora (along with Adelie) manage to subdue Freezeburn with Adelie's magic and a narwhal spear. Freezeburn is taken back to the Ice Kingdom to be sentenced to execution, while the queen allows Brinicle to move to the Ice Kingdom as well as grant him his wish to marry Adelie. After a few months, Brinicle moves to the Island Palace so that he can keep an eye on his mother and siblings, as well as have his children be close to their grandmother.
===The Song of the Snow===
8 months later, Acropora is busy writing her story when she feels something land on her tail. She looks to find her grandson, Drift, having a wrestling match with her tail. She gets back to her work but moves her tail about, to give the dragonet a little challenge. When she finishes she decides to go find her son. She takes Drift with her. They find Brinicle with his daughter, Snowstorm by the ocean. Brinicle expresses his concerns about Adelie wanting to move back to the Ice Kingdom. Acropora explains her concerns over this, as it means she wouldn't get to see them much anymore due to the extremely cold temperatures of the Ice Kingdom. Zero, who was with his mother, overhears this and decides he doesn't want to go. However Acropora tells him to go with his parents and that she'll see him again soon. She watches as they leave for the Ice Kingdom.

Amur is said to love Acropora with his whole heart, even to the point of giving up his happiness and health for her. Acropora loves Amur just as much and likes it better when he's happy. She was heartbroken when he returned to the Ice ingdom. The two write letters to each other every week to keep in touch.
