Kludd is the son and eldest child of Noctus and Marella, the older brother of Soren and Eglantine and the tertiary antagonist of the 2010 film Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole.

He is based on Metal Beak from the Guardians of Ga'Hoole books. However unlike the books' Metal Beak, Kludd is a separate character from the film's version, whose real name is Surtr and is a Greather Sooty Owl.

Kludd originally lived in the forest of Tyto with his family. Kludd didn't believe in the legends of Ga'Hoole and was jealous of his younger brother Soren for being better than him and being favoured by his parents. However one day, he and Soren fall from their tree and are attacked by a Tasmanian Devil before being captured by Jatt & Jutt and taken to St. Aggie's where Soren and his new friend Gylfie became pickers and Kludd was trained to be a soldier for the Pure Ones by Nyra.

So enough, Kludd raised in the Pure One ranks and grew to hate Soren for being "weak" and kidnapped and moonblinked Eglantine. During the battle against the Guardians and the Pure Ones, Kludd battles Soren and declares that the Pure Ones believed in him like no one has and how Metal Beak told him that the strong will survive, the broken will be put out of their misery and that honor is just another word for weakness. Soren replies that he knows that Kludd doesn't think like that, which makes Kludd reply that Soren doesn't know him at all. When launching at Soren, Kludd breaks his wings and dangles above a burning forest. Kludd pleads for Soren to help him, but when Soren tries to, Kludd tries to throw him into the fire, but the branch he is holding onto snaps, causing Kludd to fall into the flames. Believing his brother to be dead, an angered Soren, picks up a burning branch to go after Metal Beak to stop him destroying another owl's life, like he did to Kludd.

Following Metal Beak's death and the Guardians' victory, it is revealed that Kludd survived the fire and comes across Metal Beak's body and gazes down at his mask, possibly taking it for himself.
