## Biography

### The Jade Mountain Prophecy

#### Moon Rising

Bigtail was first mentioned when Moon brainstormed NightWing suspects of
the telepath in her mind. She mentioned that her and Bigtail had not met
before, due to Bigtail's parents hating Secretkeeper and keeping him
away from her.

While eating in the prey center, Anemone requested the fish that Bigtail
was eating, claiming that it was her favorite type of fish. Bigtail
refused to give it to her, resulting in an argument with Pike, one of
Anemone's SeaWing followers and secret guard. Pike stated that Anemone
was the SeaWing princess, though Bigtail thought that she was not his
princess. However, Clay split the two up, saying that whoever got the
food from the prey center first could have it, but they would review the
rules if that did not work. Tsunami then told Anemone to come hunting
with her, which she reluctantly agreed to. As a result, Bigtail kept the
rest of the fish to himself.

Later, Bigtail was killed in the history cave by the explosion set off
by Sora's dragonflame cactus bomb. Bigtail and Carnelian both died when
the dragonflame cactus exploded.

#### Darkness of Dragons

Qibli thought of Bigtail while remembering Pike's clawmates. Later, he
also noted that a dragonflame cactus killed Bigtail when he found one in
Cobra's bag.
