I think there is a point from episode 1 that's been dropped a little bit over time that's worth digging into more, and that's the influences of religious Judaism on a lot of the societal and religious views in the series.

Notably, ryb bears a resemblance to rebbe/rabbi, with both primarily serving the role of teachers/guides in their communities. Rabbis teach the Torah while rybs seem more secular, although you could argue that tending the Ga'hoole tree and teaching its history/environment/being the protectors of it (and, by extension, the origin of one source of the world's heroism and justice) has a common thread with Judaism as well.

There is also the contrast between St. Aggie's "questions are forbidden" stance versus the Ga'Hoole tree encouraging and celebrating learning. Judaism encourages questions, education, and religous debate in a way few major religions do - rather than just explaining practices as "well it is this way because God/religious text/your spiritual leader says so".

In episode 7, also - while they appear similar to a Christian abbey or other secluded society, the ideals that Simon and the Glauxian Brothers represent are also key features of Judaism: not to proselytize or convert, and to provide tzedakah (ethically obligated charity/aid) for those in need. While Judaism doesn't encourage monastic piety, in light of the other Jewish influences on the story I wanted to point it out nonetheless.

I'm sure there are more instances than just this, but I'd have to re-read/re-listen to catch them. TL;DR a lot of these owls seem Jewish, and I love that.

I absolutely ADORE these connections, and I'd love to quote you as we go into episode 10 -- failing that, I want our followers here to see it! These are the kind of wonderful observations that make *total sense,* but both PB and I lack the background to notice.

I know you've chosen to remain anonymous, but if you're alright being quoted, feel free to reach out to us privately at [email protected]!

a ref sheet/app for a GoG RP! still waiting to hear back abt it but i wanted to post it regardless and ill probably use him for something whether or not the RP works out!

large bio underneath readmore

Name: Yarrow Age: Adult Species: Blakiston’s Fish Owl (specifically; Bubo Blakistoni Doerriesi subspecies) Gender: male, he/him Sexuality: homosexual Height: 29 in. Weight: 11 lbs. Build: Tall and large, he says a lot of it is feathers. Yarrow is heavy and well muscled due to eating fish and traversing on the ground for food. Appearance: Yarrow is a large tawny owl with very messy feathers. He has white around his face and chest. His torso has lighter beige colored feathers, with many little streaks of black. His wings and tail feathers are barred with dark brown on both sides, lighter underneath.

Faction: Lone Owl Occupation: Blacksmith/artist Birthplace: Frost Forest, near the lakes Family: Kaverna (mother; deceased), Zhelty (father; unknown) Commonly found: at his smithing spot (a toppled fishing shack built by the Others) near Serenity delta, flying through nearby forests, at the beach, trading at Lone Owl island

Theme song: Bottomfeeder - Amanda Palmer Likes: fish, water/rivers/the sea, art, traveling, learning, music, trinquets, green filled landscapes, flowers Dislikes: heat, barren deserts, bugs, thunderstorms/heavy storms, theives

Personality: Yarrow is an eccentric, compassionate, open minded owl. He’s clear about his opinions when he’s passionate and loves to learn about all sorts of things he doesn’t know about. Being a fish owl, some of his lifestyle differs greatly from other owl species and he tends to embrace the feeling of being different. While often on his own, he does enjoy making friends and will gladly join other owls on trips. While his open mind is a good thing in most cases, it does make it easy for him to make up his mind and cut off contact with people he disagrees with- he may not give second changes. He can also be a bit distant, as he has a hard time handling emotions- he likes to stick to logic and often closes off emotional responses to stressful situations. When it comes to scenarios where others are in trouble, he will likely do what is logical and brings others to safety before making up his mind on what's “good” or “bad”. But in personal relations, he has a hard time facing his feelings or dealing with them appropraitely- leading to stubbornness, outbursts, or irrational choices. He may not come off as sensitive or easy to upset as he likes to consider logic and others’ views before reacting, but he is deeply disturbed by betrayal and losing trusted friends. He may be open to changing his opinions for simple things, but changing his emotions is a whole other thing. He is unlikely to act with violence though, unless provoked or in a scenario where it is needed.

Pre-Group History: Yarrow was born to a simple loving family- Kaverna, his mother and Zhelty, his father. They lived near the water in a large tree. There was a sister egg that failed to hatch before Yarrow did. His parents were kind and caring- raising him properly just as any owl should. However, he found himself orphaned one night, when lightning struck near his hollow and caused their tree to fall to the ground. He was at the age where he should fly, and while he managed to escape before getting hurt, his mother at the back of the hollow was killed. His father was out hunting, and due to the circumstances Yarrow had to find safety first and was unable to reunite with his father. While Yarrow faced grief in losing his parent’s, they taught him a lot about loving the world and the land, and he set out to form his own life.

He mostly stayed to the west, cooler and damper parts of the world as he travelled and tried to find inspiration of what to do with his life. On his flights, he acquainted many owls, one of whom was an apprentice blacksmith. This smith was still learning, but introduced him to his mentor. While these two were smithing up weapons and Yarrow didn't care much for that, it piqued Yarrows interest, and he stuck around with the older smith- a scraggly masked owl named Uhlava. Yarrow learned for months about smithing, metals, coals, etc. He did ask about not making weapons- to which Uhlava mentioned “art”. She said that she did not make art, it was not her specialty and she didn’t “get” it. She could teach him how smithing worked in general but he should seek outside knowledge on art. She informed him that she heard the Guardians had many books (said pre-burning of the tree) and that the Glauxian Brothers had a large library as well. He didn’t know how to read yet… and while she gave him a lead to maybe read about the Rogue Smith of Silverveil who stopped making weapons to make art, he knew it was leagues away from Uhlava’s home at the edge of Saint Aegolius Canyons. Yarrow eventually finished his basic training in smithing and moved to his own settlement, a small crumbled stone fishing shack built by the Others, in the Serenity Delta. While he dreamed to read and learn about art, he decided it was quite a lot to do, and would practice what he thought was “art” first. He quite loved living near the water and sea, it gave him inspiration. Yarrow experimented with materials aside from metal and eventually used sand to create glass objects. Nothing as magnificent as the stained glass from the Others, but little baubles strung up with string, little necklaces and charms.

In the present, Yarrow resides at this residence but often travels to trade and get materials for his work. He is not a known name, but has traded his work with a few owls before. His goal is to learn to read so he can learn about art history and improve his work. He also wishes to explore more of the world to fuel his ideas.

Group History: N/A

Relationships: N/A

Other:

Yarrow doesn’t know how to write, but if he did he’d write some good poetry.

He is not a fighter, it's not something he ever learned, but his size makes him incredibly capable of being destructive if he’s driven to it.

Yarrow was named after a bunch of yarrow flowers growing near their hollow, as his mother loved those flowers.

Yarrow thinks about his father, but is unsure if he should accept the possibility that he's dead.

Yarrow enjoys fish, and like many fish owls he spends a lot of time on the ground. He is very good at running around on his feet and hunting on the ground. He enjoys the forest floors more than a tree or hollow.

He does enjoy the few non-fish meals he's gotten in other forests and definitely likes the idea of trying out more.

He has insecurities about philosophy, often having a hard time grasping feelings with death, existence etc and doesn't think scrooms are real. He loves the world but doesnt like thinking about deep questions that may take “logic” away from his typical pattern of thinking. He likes to use logic to form opinions, not emotions.

While a logical thinker, this doesn't take away his compassion or empathy! He's very kind and understanding.

In terms of relationships, he is not a type for long term commitment, does not plan to make a family. He is the type for flings and very sensual/intimate friendships. Its likely he has a few owls he knows awfully well and many he doesn’t know well at all.

Design can be simplified to get rid of or lessen speckles.

Things I wish the Guardians of Ga’Hoole movie had because I have a hard time visualizing it in the books

Hagsfeinds

Grog trees

Certain types of coals and embers

Weapons like ice weapons, and fizgigs

How nest maid snakes can be used as tables?????????

The flying snakes of the northern kingdoms

A more in-depth look at the dining hollow in general

The Glauxian Brothers Retreat (they show it pretty decently in the game tho)

Most of the hollows of the Great Tree

The more distant parts of the Island of Hoole away from the tree (yes, the island is an actual ISLAND)

#add more if you'd like #Guardians of Ga'Hoole #ga'hoole #owls
