Soren was born in the Kingdom of Tyto, where he lived with his father, Noctus, his mother, Marella, his older brother, Kludd, his younger sister, Eglantine, and the family's nest snake Mrs. Horace Plithiver. He was snatched by patrols from St. Aegolius Academy for Orphaned Owls after Kludd meanly pushed him from the nest. He later escaped with his friend Gylfie and together the two met Twilight then Digger before journeying to the Great Ga'Hoole Tree. After many adventures, Soren becomes a Guardian of Ga'Hoole, leader of The Band, leader of the Chaw of Chaws after, a member of the Great Ga'Hoole Tree and the ryb of the weather interpretation and colliering chaw after Ezylryb died. He is the mate of Pellimore and the father of Bell, Blythe, and Bash. Soren has starsight, allowing him to view glimpses of the future through his dreams. At the end of The War of the Ember he becomes king of the Great Tree after the death of his nephew, Coryn (Nyroc). Portrayed by Jim Sturgess in the film.

Gylfie is a female elf owl, (Micrathene whitneyi), who is Soren's best friend and part of "The Band". Gylfie was hatched in a cactus in the Desert of Kuneer and was snatched by patrols from St. Aggie's after trying to fly before her wings had completely fledged. She escaped with Soren, and after befriending Twilight and Digger, came to the Great Ga'hoole tree. She later becomes the navigation ryb. Gylfie is both articulate and intelligent, although less reliant on books than Otulissa. In the first book, she tells Soren almost everything she knows. Portrayed by Emily Barclay in the film.

Twilight is a male great grey owl, (Strix nebulosa). It is revealed in The Guide Book to the Great Tree that he was the son of a famous poet, Skye, and was named "Cassius" when he was hatched. He was snatched by St. Aggie's but escaped when he bit one of his captor's talons off. He is part of "The Band". Soren and Gylfie met him after escaping from St. Aggie's. He claimed that he taught himself everything about surviving and was abandoned within hours of hatching. He dealt the final blow to Kludd, the ruler of the Pure Ones, in the Battle of the Burning (He was given a great party, no doubt). One of the only times he is injured in battle was in "The Golden Tree" during the Battle of the Book of Kreeth, when he faced off against Nyra, he was slashed across his chest and almost died, but was saved by the two flying snakes, Slynella and Stingyll, with their healing venom. It is revealed in The War of the Ember that he has two brothers, Tavis and Cletus, that he had never met, as they left shortly before he was born. He is very confident and boastful, and is constantly singing songs about himself, but still has a very good heart. He is now a Guardian of Ga'Hoole at the Ga'Hoole Tree in the search-and-rescue chaw. Portrayed by Anthony LaPaglia in the film.
