Vraagje: keek je vroeger als kind met enige regelmaat ook naar Ketnet?

Ja (ik kom uit België)

Ja (ik kom uit Nederland)

Nee (ik kom uit België)

Nee (ik kom uit Nederland)

Ben benieuwd of er ook andere Nederlanders zijn die een Ketnet-jeugd hebben😎

let’s talk about Gideon

・who is Gideon?

Gideon is a messenger from the High Council as well as a mage. He carries a tall staff with him which is used to cast magic spells. With his magic Gideon can create a protective circle by using the spell “imperia”. 

Gideon’s appearance seems to be inspired by Arabian legend. Think of genies or wizards from fairytales.

・his personality

manners

It is very obvious that Gideon is well-mannered. Even after Vlad and Wilko attacked him due to a misunderstanding. Gideon remains polite despite almost losing his breath.

well-read

Gideon seems to possess a general knowledge of creatures, as is evident when he talks about the traits of werewolves. Also, when they are trying to find a piece of parchment, Gideon finds an Atlas Oculta instead — he presents a new solution to them find the others.

Although it is not made very clear whether he simply enjoys learning about other creatures or if he just studied werewolves because he would be joining the Night Watch and wanted to know more about his fellow teammates (probable –in my opinion– considering what he knows about Keelin when they first meet)

brave

Of course there is not much known about Gideon’s life prior to appearing in this movie, and with his position as a messenger he might have travelled a lot, but maybe not been involved in battles. So I would say he is very brave for even considering helping the Night Watch and others defeat Nemezza and her gate.

・his journey

If I were to sum up Gideon’s arc throughout the movie, it would be that he was ready to join the Night Watch at the beginning, but acknowledges that it is better for Vlad to stay and says that he won’t be Vlad’s replacement.

At the start, he is courteous and seems honoured to take over Vlad’s position as a member of the Night Watch. Important to note is that there seems to be no ill will between Gideon and Vlad. Vlad knows the decision is out of Gideon’s hands and Gideon is not fishing for the position, just the one who is set to take over due to the command of 77.

While spending time with the Night Watch and their entourage, he learns how good of a team Wilko, Keelin and Vlad are when they are together.

In the end, Gideon decides that he shouldn’t accept the position to become a member of the Night Watch. He is even the one to propose to the President that the current members of the Night Watch should stay together for as long as they want.

Having typed all of this, there is just one last thing I want to mention…

・his transformation

We didn’t get to see his transformation!! Suddenly he changed eye colour and has a sign on his forehead. I mean it makes sense for the others to not comment on this, but the movie doesn’t even acknowledge it! Same goes for Roman, by the way. Suddenly he got fangs and no ponytail and the movie doesn’t even mention it.

Volume 1 Nightwatch Profiles

1. Vladimir

Vladimir is with his 200 years the oldest warrior of The Nightwatch. The drop of blood incorporated in his ring, symbolizes who he is: a vampire. That drop was not accidentally processed into a ring, because just like a circle a ring symbolizes eternity, an eternal life. Very fitting for someone who has two centuries on his counter.

[Fake ink: the most famous vampire is Count Dracula (origin: Transylvania)]

Traits

Smart, reasonable, great persuasiveness, courteous, 200 years old.

Strengths

• Can turn himself invisible.

• Can switch to vampire speed, which makes him faster than a whirlwind.

• He can hypnotize humans and some creatures with his eyes, but only for short amounts of time.

Weaknesses

• One guess… garlic, of course! As soon as he comes near garlic he looses all his powers.

• Shuns bright sunlight and because of that often wears sunglasses.

• No reflection, which he has to hide from normal people.

Archivist’s note: We barely see Vlad wearing sunglasses in the show, and we also rarely to never see him use these mentioned hypnosis powers. It’s unclear when these books were written in the timeline of show production, but this leads me to believe these profiles were written before or during show production. The discrepancies are the biggest with Keelin, but more on that in the notes on her section.

While the text in the weakness section does not state that the loss of power to garlic is impermanent, we see in the show that it does not have lasting consequences on him.

2. Keelin

Meet Keelin. Attached to her necklace is a golden feather. That refers to birds and thus the ability to fly. The most special gift of an elf is… that she can fly. Hence the feather. But there’s more… to the ancient Egyptians the feather is a symbol of truth. Keelin has a strongly developed intuition that has never steered her wrong. That too is contained within the image of the feather.

[Fake ink: typical are the pointed ears]

Traits

High EQ and thus high empathy, good at improvising, has a strongly developed intuition, is positive and shrewd.

Strengths

• An expert in making all kinds of magical concoctions.

• The elf dust in her long blonde hair gives her magical powers.

• Has wings and can therefore fly.

Weaknesses

• Chaotic and sometimes overconfident.

• Freezes up in small rooms because the tiniest movement can damage her wings.

Archivist’s note: There’s a big difference between this profile’s Keelin and the show’s Keelin, this being the wings. As far as I am aware, Keelin has never had wings in the show or movies, and as the monster manuals are mainly episode retellings by Vega, they don’t show up in the manuals’ stories either. The picture included with her profile in this volume does picture her with translucent wings, though.

The discrepancies in the profiles are also present in volume two, who’s profiles are the similar to volume one except for a different layout, some reworded text, and the addition of some facts such as birthday and favourite foods, but the discrepancies are removed from volume 3 onward.

I suspect Keelin may have been conceptualised with wings in earlier versions of her character due to the many different connotations of the word “elf” in Dutch, which include the typical elves English speakers will imagine when hearing the word, but also include pixies, fairies, fey, sprites, brownies, certain spirits, etc. It is almost used as a catchall term for a certain type of folkloric creature.

Keelin’s most obvious connection to these connotations, the wings, were eventually cut from her character, but the influence is still visible in the “elf dust” in her hair (which due to these connotations can just as well be translated as fairy dust or pixie dust).

3. Wilko

Werewolf Wilko has a leather bracelet with an incorporated wolf fang. Both the leather and the fang are two obvious animal symbolism. In Wilko’s case the fang especially is a strong image of his special gifts: exceptional power, bravery and above-human senses. The wolf fang symbolizes the close relationship between animal and nature and thus also between Wilko and Nature.

[Fake ink: noticeably hairy]

Traits

Brave, honest, adventurer, tough. Can decide and act quickly.

Strengths

• Above-human strenght, fast, agile.

• Iron-strong senses (hearing, vision, taste, smell).

Weaknesses

• Sometimes impulsive. Stubborn and fiery.

• When he gets into contact with silver he changes back to his human form. Silver blocks his transformation to a werewolf. He can thus be kept prisoner with a silver chain.

Archivist’s note: Wilko’s profile is the most in line with what we see in the show, which doesn’t surprise me. Where there are many versions of vampires and elves have certain connotations in Dutch, werewolves are quite straight-forward. The only discrepancy I could spot, which I’m not certain of since I haven’t watched the episodes in a while, is the notion that silver forces him to return to human form. In the show, it harms him instead (in both human and werewolf form), which I do feel makes more sense for a weakness.

Sasha: I dare you to-

Keelin: Wilko isn't allowed to accept dares.

Wilko: Apparently I have 'no regard for my personal safety'

Is it just me who has made up several backstories on how Vega went from Night Watch member to ghost inside books?

My personal favourite I’ve come up with:

That after Juno got trapped inside the Gate of Souls, Vega went kind of mad-scientist-type-insane trying to find a way to save her and eventually had to be fired from the Night Watch because he couldn’t fulfil his duties without his personal feelings interfering. After getting fired, Vega’s rage (driven by wanting to save Juno) continued and he was transformed to a ghost-figure by the High Council and locked inside the world of books.

Komt er een Spring spin-off?

Als je refereert aan de serie die van 2002 tot 2008 op Ketnet te zien was kan ik jammer genoeg niet zeggen daarvan op de hoogte te zijn. Ik kan ook geen enkel nieuws vinden met even googelen, dus ik denk het niet :(

Het enige interessante studio 100 nieuws dat ik vond was dat ze een nieuwe musical (productie) met K3 bekend gaan maken vrijdag [x] (begin dit jaar was er al een lek waarop het leek dat de 3 biggetjes terug zou komen, dus we zullen snel weten of dat waar is)

#studio 100 #k3 #spring #ask #heb ik dit geprompt op een of andere manier? #want hoewel ik 80% zeker ben dat ik spring heb gezien #(dat moet wel met de hoeveelheid ketnet die ik in die tijd heb gekeken) #kan ik met er echt niks van herinneren #maar wel heel enthausiast over het nieuws dat er vrijdag musical nieuws komt #ik denk dat ik wat te jong was voor spring #volgens Wikipedia was de opvolger amika en dat heb ik wel echt gekeken #ik heb echter wel herinneringen aan smos dus dat is dan weer raar
