Gill

> But he refused to fight. We heard about it, through our spies. He convinced each of his opponents to lie down and refuse to fight along with him. He has — had a way with words. No one who met him would be able to kill him.

## Physical description

**Gill** was an adult male SeaWing who was introduced in *The Dragonet Prophecy*.

## Personality

Little was known about Gill's personality, although Coral remembered him as 'being the perfect king,' describing him to have been smart, strong, persuasive, peaceful, gentle, and of a noble family. He was shown to be a good king, wanting to compromise rather than fight to end the War of SandWing Succession. He was said to have a way with words, such as when he was able to convince prisoners to stop fighting in Scarlet's arena. It was also stated that Gill adored Coral's writing.Template:Ref He went mentally insane and murderous after he was imprisoned in Scarlet's arena and deprived of water for a long period of time.

He also seemed to care about SeaWing princesses very much, as he was devastated and furious when two of the female eggs were smashed in the prologue of *Talons of Power*. Though reasonable as he was, he was also prone to jumping to conclusions. This was shown when he blamed Turtle for not finding Snapper in time, despite Turtle only being a very young dragonet.
