Cedric the Owl

Cedric the Owl is an educated owl; he was guide, counsel, and friend to King Graham. He accompanied the king as he attempted to rescue his family from Mordack. Cedric is the familiar, servant, and companion of the high wizard Crispinophur. He is a short and stout owl, and clad in a vest and monocle.

Although Cedric describes himself as being in the employ of Crispin, it is more likely that he is more of a friend and aid-de-camp to the great wizard. Cedric keeps Crispin's house and thoughts in order.

It is said that the great wizard Merlin had an owl as a familiar. Merlin's Owl was named Archimedes. It is possible that Crispin and Cedric are Merlin and Archimedes, living in Serenia under assumed identities. But there is no evidence to know for sure. Cedric is a wise bird, if nothing else. He is known for his cowardice.
