Another fun character archetype in the Redwall series: the often unusually competent toddler that helps drive the plot.
In Redwall it was Sam Squirrel, in Mossflower we had pretty much all the Stickle kids, and now in Mattimeo there's Rollo Bankvole. Sam pretty much carried the plot of Redwall with half his paw jammed into his mouth; Ferdy, Coggs, Spike, and Posy basically played different parts in springing Gingivere from Kotir's dungeon, and Rollo's already out here solving the riddle of the week with baby logic.
I love it. It's not like the series is short on Kid Heroes otherwise, Mattimeo's nothing but kid heroes, but for some reason BJ kept having babies and toddlers play key roles his plots, and it's so good every time. Can't wait to read about baby Dumble beating up crows in Salamandastron.

Thoughts on Slagar
I was talking with my lovely partner about Slagar the Cruel. He hasn't read the books, but he's absorbed enough from my ramblings and things to form his own thoughts (:)). Slagar always seems to be a fan favorite of those who only know just some about Redwall, which I think is great. Slagar is great (awful).
The conversation started with me saying "Do you remember Chickenhound/Slagar?"
He says "Of course. He's the one with the cool checkered mask right?"
"Yes he's the one with the mask. So, same dude [Chickenhound and Slagar (spoilers, haha)], right? I HATE Chickenhound, but I think Slagar is so great I love him."
So that's point one, I think it's kind of funny about me. Slagar is so fun and evil and camp, but I will just never ever forgive Chickenhound for being stupid and the worst.
Then, boyfriend had some really interesting thoughts that I'd like to share! Thoughts from a new audience, if you will.
"The checkered mask and cape is so cool because it completely conceals the very defining features of a fox, like the shape of the head and the bright orange color, but it does it by replacing it with such a striking pattern that it also erases the shape of him. But it’s so unique and so bold, even more so than a fox. He stands out so much yet is so mysterious and anonymous. Very fey." I said, "AND it conceals his broken face. So it replaces something he hates with something recognizably scary but also costumey. I don't know how to explain, but it’s powerful and monstrous because it’s so fun but at the same time he’s so cruel." Boyfriend says: "It does more than that, it makes him a new kind of beautiful. (I’m just projecting and romanticizing though it’s your book you know more.)"
I wanted to share because I thought this was so interesting! Thank you, goodbeasts all!

This is now my blog for any Redwall themed tournaments I feel like doing or that anyone else may suggest. Best Villain and Most Tragic Death have been done elsewhere but anything else is fair game.
Same mod as @incorrectredwallquotes
Starting out simple with best Redwall book. In order to make the math pretty I’ve included The Great Redwall Feast and A Redwall Winters Tale, additionally the semi-finals will feature triple contestants. Polls will last a week to get some traction.
Match Ups Round 1:
Redwall vs. Eualia Winner: Redwall
Lord Brocktree vs. Marlfox Winner: Marlfox

Marvel can try all they want but they'll never match the plot twist of children book author Brian Jacques when it was revealed that Slagar the Cruel was, in fact, Chickenhound. Ten-year-old me was shook.

Vote for your favorite Redwall villain! Not who you think would win in a fight, but who you think is most effective as a villain or who you enjoy the most!

Constance: Matthias, we have a problem. We need you in Great Hall. Matthias: Well, I can't go now, I have to watch Mattimeo. Constance: I can wash Mattimeo. Matthias: I said 'watch' him, not 'wash' him. Constance: Hm. Even easier.

I love how Mattimeo's big Coming Of Age moment is basically "I just hit rock bottom and there's nothing down here but violence" and Tess is like "oh thank God one of us was going to have to."

The fact that Tim Curry voiced Slagar the Cruel in the TV show: 1) is the best thing in my life, and 2) tells everyone all they need to know about Slagar the Cruel. Fan favorite (evil man, though, not cool. He’s so… him!… though!)
