Edalyn 'Eda' Clawthorne

Edalyn "Eda" Clawthorne is the deuteragonist of The Owl House, and is a bad magical gal who takes no names and kicks all the ass. Both literally and metaphorically. She is extremely capable in magic. She can cast fire, shine light, protection bubbles, electricity bending, earth moving, almost anything really. She ran away from home as a teenager after being cursed by her older sister, a curse which caused her to turn into the owl beast. Eda eventually becomes the most-wanted criminal and the most powerful wild witch on the Boiling Isles until her curse ended up completely robbing her of her magic.

Eda is a tall, curvaceous woman in her mid-to-late 40s, with ivory skin, pointed ears, maroon lips. Her left eye is gray and her right eye is gold. Her untamed hair is thick, long, and layered with tones of gray. She has a removable gold fang, orange claw-like nails, and an oval amber gem on her sternum, which helped indicate when the curse was getting worse.

Confident and sassy, Eda is best described as rebellious, with Luz (Her apprentice) calling her "surprisingly foxy for her age". Her vast skills and aptitude in witchcraft gives her a brash streak, as she proudly declares her power and is openly defiant of authorities, going as far as knocking a guard unconscious and flying off to avoid getting caught.

Unlike her sister Lilith, Eda is vehemently anti-authoritarian, having little to no respect for laws and authority in general. She refuses to join any of the covens because she views them as crooked for the limitations they place on magic. She is also not a fan of the educational system for similar reasons, bemoaning its reliance on "blind obedience" and "pointless busywork".

Eda is described as the sort of teacher that would not only throw someone into the deep end, but also set the entire body of water on fire. Eda has an odd view of how a good apprentice should act; she is very proud of Luz for getting her face on a "wanted" poster for the first time, reacting the same way when Luz convinces her to teach new spells by appealing to her vanity.

It's shown that she has a caring side to her and she is willing to protect the people she holds most dear, such as when she protects Luz multiple times, being close to a mother figure for her, as well as swallowing her pride when she realizes that she's being unreasonable and that Luz is miserable not being around her new friends and only having a limited palette with learning about magic, and enrolling her in Hexside. She also deeply cares about Lilith despite them both being on different sides of the law. It also seems she is afraid of losing her friends, and as such tries to ignore the idea of them leaving.
