The temporal and sometime spiritual leader of Redwall Abbey.  There have been 28 total Abbots and Abbesses in Redwall.  A complete list can be found here!

Bloodwrath

The Bloodwrath was a mental condition that caused the affected creature to go into a berserker's rage. The afflicted saw red and became capable of incredible feats of strength and could overcome impossible odds in battle. Almost all Badgerlords of Salamandastron were afflicted at some point in their lives, but the Bloodwrath was documented in other creatures as well.

Cuthbert Blanedale Frunk (Maj.)/Cuthbert Frunk W. Bloodpaw/Log-a-log Boodul/Lord Brockfang Frunk

A Salamandastron hare Major/otter pirate/Guosim leader/Wild-living badger, all in one neat tragic package. Has the distinction of claiming the only series kill of a Slothunog, along with himself and five wildcats who probably hated water even before they were tackled into the depths of the Deeplough.

Damson and plum pudding

Certainly a significant quest item to any hungry hare, Filorn's damson an' plum pud was the subject of an ode by the official Abbey Poet, Master of Music, Occasional Entertainer, Composer, Melodic Tutor, and Instructor of All Things Lyrical, Boorab (Bellscut Oglecrop Obrathon Ragglewaithe Audube Baggscut) the Fool.

Eulalia!

The quintessential battle cry of Salamandastron. Eulalia is not only the name of one of the books in the Redwall series, but one of the most common words found in the series. Often shouted with its vowel sounds extended, you can hear how Brian Jacques himself pronounces the battle cry here.

Felldoh

A squirrel's squirrel, this strong specimen of the brush-tailed species features in Martin the Warrior as one of the slaves who escape from Fort Marshank.  He is not able to let go of his grudge against Badrang, however, and during one of his javelin bombardments he challenges the fortress leader to single combat.  Although he almost beats the stoat, he's not the protagonist, so Badrang has to cheat so that Martin can claim the win later.

[Isaiah]

Gabool the Wild

This evil searat lorded over an island fortress as the primary villain in Mariel of Redwall. In the story, he captures Mariel and her father Joseph—a bell-maker—who has created a bell for Salamandastron. Eventually, this bell goes to Redwall, but not before Gabool obsesses over the bell to insanity. Fun fact, Gabool dies not to Mariel's paw, but to his pet scorpion!

Hortwill Longblade Braebuck

Known as Horty to his chums and travelling companions, this hare is the elder brother of one Martha Braebuck. Sneaking out of the abbey alongside his two good friends Springald and Fenna, he joined the quest to seek the treatment for his chair-bound sister from the ancient abbey ruins of Loamhedge. Along with his companions, Hortwill proved that the best cure for the arrogance and foolhardiness of youth is a perilous journey filled with near-death scrapes, unrelenting exposure of one's own faults, and the loss of two beloved mentor figures.

Iris Streambattle

This tough otter was in charge of leading the former otter guards of Castle Floret in resistance against the curiously named Urgan Nagru. She also had to deal with her mate going insane temporarily. Fun fact, she was one of the characters featured in Riv's childhood cosplays of otters with bows!

[Deleted]

Jukka the Sling

Squirrel leader who lives north of Salamandastron with her tribe of ransacking, weapon-stealing slingshotters. If ye darest to call her Sling the Jukka, like a certain fleetest of scut may suggest, ye best be prepared to feel the full ferocity of her sharp mouth and the stone-cold impact of her weapon of choice.

[Burfle, Brookfill & Madrigal]

Kersey

A Long Patrol Galloper, which is a position that is definitely different to Long Patrol Runners, for y'see Gallopers run and Runners gallop. Her twin brother Dauncey, also ran as a Galloper...or did he gallop as a...? Nevermind. The point being, that Kersey and her brother are one of a select group of hare siblings known for their excellent turn of speed.

[Riverstream & Riana]

Leatho Shellhound

An outlaw sea otter on the legendary Green Isle, best known outside of Green Isle as the rescuer and best friend of all wayward birds. When he's not slinging rocks at cats or starring in ballads, he's probably doing.... not much else besides that, honestly.

Martin the Warrior

The mouse of legend himself, the hero and founder of Redwall Abbey. First appearing in Mossflower, his journey actually began during the event of Martin the Warrior, where he "liberated" beasts from useful employment at Fort Marshank and subsequently collapsed the labor market.  He later conquered the Mossflower countryside from the peaceful rule of the Greeneye dynasty, before securing his hold on the land with a walled sandstone fortification.  He later sought to legitamize his claim by fabricating claims to his own grand heritage, detailed in Legend of Luke.  Hobbies include slaying vermin with extreme prejudice, drowning cats in ponds, and haunting beasts waking dreams.

[Riverstream & Riana]

Nimbalo the Slayer

A brave and fearless warrior mouse, best friend of the legendary otter the Taggerung. He'll always tell you a story (probably about one of his many adventures or victorious fights), but rarely tell you the truth! At the end of his story, Nimbalo was able to unpack his family trauma (yay!) and live happily at Redwall, as the new Abbey Master of Music.
