"You're a fool, Seerow. A soft, sentimental, well-meaning fool. And now my men are dead and the Yeerks are loose in the galaxy. How many will die before we can bring this contagion under control? How many will die for Seerow's kindness?"

―Alloran-Semitur-Corrass to Seerow

Seerow was an Andalite Prince who is notorious for being the one gave the Yeerks advanced technology, which they used to start conquering the galaxy. He was the reason behind the Law of Seerow's Kindness. He is the father of Aldrea-Iskillion-Falan and Barafin.

History

Helping the Yeerks

"You fool. You coddled them. You trained them. You showed them the universe. You showed them all the things they could not have, living here on this planet of theirs. You even built them portable Kandronas and thus freed them."
"The Yeerks are intelligent, sentient creatures. They have a right to join other sentient races."

―Alloran-Semitur-Corrass and Seerow

Prince Seerow led the very first Andalite expedition to the Yeerk homeworld. He pitied the Yeerks, who were highly intelligent, but very limited by their hosts and their need for Kandrona Rays. Seerow gave the Yeerks access to Andalite technology, founded the Andalite-Yeerk Peace and Cooperation Center, and taught the Yeerks many things, including writing, engineering and astronomy.

For a brief time, the Yeerks and Andalites lived harmoniously together. This peace was broken when a group of Yeerks rebelled, attacked the Andalite-Yeerk Peace and Cooperation Center, killed several Andalites and stole a few Andalite ships.

Seerow was blamed for the incident, dishonored, and stationed with his family on a primitive planet the Andalites deemed unimportant, the Hork-Bajir homeworld. Seerow, his wife, and Barafin were all killed by the Shredder fire on the Hork-Bajir Homeworld before the Yeerks were trying to take it over.

Trivia

• Seerow apparently has a good reputation among some Yeerks; Aftran 942 acknowledges him as '"the one good Andalite"'.
• Seerow is the namesake for the law of Seerow's Kindness and Seerow Hamee.
