Well, the orca used to have a name, but I'm no longer satisfied with it, so now I'm trying to think of a new one... it'll have to be one of my top priorities in my long list of OCs to think of names for though, 'cause this orca is a major supporting character in Nikko's story, and has been in the story almost as long as Nikko himself has, even if he is still my only orca OC...

He was a transient until, as a young adult, he met Nikko, and although he initially intended to eat him, Nikko was so lonely and depressed at the time the orca ended up feeling sorry for him, and they ended up becoming friends... then the orca started feeling bad about eating smaller dolphins like Nikko which he used to relish eating, or any marine mammals at all, so he started eating fish that resident orcas would eat, more and more often, and eating mammals less and less often, until he was just eating fish, like a resident. But he was still being shunned by residents since he was technically still a transient by birth, and fellow transients were now shunning him too... So now he was a social outcast like this bottlenose dolphin... they ended up getting very close due to that, but, thanks to humans, sooner or later they'd end up getting seperated... though somehow, eventually, they would be reunited again...
