Asio Bardwing was a tawny owl that traveled with Mad Maudie Mugsberry Thropple. He was stubborn and not very intelligent, and once he had an idea in his head it was almost impossible to shake him. He also did not have the best hygiene, leaving remnants of his previous meals on his talons. He had an Auntie Cordoolia and an Uncle Wilfrum. He spoke in an archaic manner with a Highland accent.
