Beware the Court of Owls, that watches all the timeRuling Gotham from a shadowed perch, behind granite and limeThey watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bedSpeak not a whispered word about them, or they'll send the Talon for your head. --a nursery rhyme The Court of Owls is a criminal secret society that has existed in Gotham City since the 1600s, led by some of the city's wealthiest and most influential families.

They employ deadly trained assassins known as Talons, taken as children from circuses such as the one where Dick Grayson's parents were killed.

These children are trained to become the assassins known as Talons.
