Goldric

Goldric is the slash ship between Golden Guard and Edric Blight from The Owl House fandom.

Canon
So far, Golden Guard and Edric have not met in canon. However, in addition to being the same age and gender, they also share certain personality ​traits with each other, both Golden Guard and Edric have shown to have an arrogant, fun and laid-back personality. Additionally both boys have threatened to kill or injure an animal, a bat for Edric and King for Golden Guard, on screen, but then showed curiosity about both animals for a short period of time.

Edric can cast an illusion with a spell circle while hunter can do creation magic with his staff. Both have said the word try, hunter said " try to stay away " in seperate tides while edric said " we can try " in adventure in the elements.

Although there is still no clues ​that the two are going to meet, in the episode "Escaping Expulsion" Golden Guard meets Edric's parents, Odalia and Alador Blight, and tells them that Emperor Belos decided to purchase all their abominations for himself. For what remains implicit that Blight family could begin to relate or work for The Emperor's Coven and with that there is a possibility that Golden Guard and Edric can see each other face to face.

In the episode episode "Hunting Palismen", although Edric does not appear or is mentioned in the episode, the face and more of Golden Guard's personality and the similarities he has with Edric are revealed. By the time Golden Guard's face was revealed, some fans noticed that some of his facial expressions and gestures are similar to what Edric does.

Fanon
Many fans started shipping Goldric after it was revealed that Golden Guard was 16 years old. Some thought that Goldric could be a possibility if Edric's parents made him get involved with the Emperor's Coven. Others started shipping there were many femslash ships and wanted to pair the few boys in the show. An idea used in fanworks is that Golden Guard visits Blight Industries often just to see Edric. The Golden Guard is seen as a very dangerous threat, but some fans believe he is only a threat under Belos' commands and he would have a soft spot for Edric. Another idea used in fanworks is that Golden Guard signs up for Hexside as an spy for the emperor or is interested in learning different types of magic and finds himself in the same class as Edric and they become good friends.

Dana Terrace posted official art of Edric and Emira, with the caption saying they got stood up on Grom night. Few people thought that the person who stood up Edric could be Golden Guard. Although, in the episode "Through the Looking Glass Ruins," it's mentioned that Edric had a date with someone and more people thought that this person he was on a date with could be Golden Guard.

This ship is mainly rivaled by Jerbric, although Goldric can also be seen as a replacement for Jerbric since Jerbo and Edric have also never met. Some fans of both ships like to ship all three boys together in a poly ship. The ship has around 223 fanworks in AO3, being the most popular ship for both Edric and Hunter, as well as the 5th most popular romantic ship in TOH and the 10th most popular ship in general.
