Marella

Marella was a female Barn Owl, the wife of Noctus, the mother of Kludd, Soren and Eglantine, the grandmother of Coryn, Bell, Blythe and Sebastiana, the mother-in-law of Nyra and Pellimore and is a minor character in the Guardians of Ga'Hoole books and the 2010 film Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole.

Books
Marella acts as a good wife and mother to her husband and children. She and Noctus were unaware that their eldest child Kludd had joined the Pure Ones and had pushed Soren out of the nest as part of a Pure Ones initiation.

Some time after this, Marella and Noctus were killed by Kludd (now the Pure Ones' leader Metal Beak) and their scrooms later warned Soren about him. Marella and Noctus later part to the afterlife. After her death, Marella gained four grandchildren; Coryn (Kludd and Nyra's son), Bell, Blythe and Sebastiana (Soren and Pellimore's daughters).

Trivia
