He was formerly a student of Jade Mountain Academy as a member of the Gold Winglet until he was killed by a Plants\#Other plants|dragonflame cactus explosion. ## Description Bigtail had black scales. ## Personality When Moonwatcher realized she needed to talk to another NightWing, she noted Bigtail would not be any help. Qibli described him as being "fairly unfriendly." ## Biography ### The Jade Mountain Prophecy #### Moon Rising (book)|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. ## Quotes |quote = But … I'm eating this one. |speaker = to Anemone about the fish he was eating |book = Moon Rising (book)|Moon Rising |page = 110 }} ## Gallery Bigtail GN 3.png|Bigtail from Moon Rising (graphic novel), by Mike Holmes BigtailTemplateSkyla.png|Reference by Bigtail GN 1.png Bigtail GN 2.png Bigtail GN 4.png Bigtail and Pike GN.png ## Categories de:Bigtail fr:Mastoc ru:Хвост Category:Characters Category:Males Category:NightWings Category:Dragonets Category:Appeared in MR Category:Mentioned in DoD Category:Minor characters Category:Jade Mountain Academy students Category:Gold Winglet Category:Deceased Category:Dragons
