Just one shark, but here it be

Finnbar: Here's the thing though, is it still murder if I give them a heads up? Joseph: I think that's called a threat.

Round 1 Part 1 Poll 3

Propaganda

Finnbar lost his wife and son in a pirate attack, steals his ship back with the help of another dilf and they go on adventures.

Carswell Thorne wasn’t a captain when he was in the military but he told everyone to call him that

- Nobody did so

- Thorne’s password is “Captain is King”

- He is the only member of the main cast to not have a personal stake in the rebellion, he’s literally just there to support his new found family

- Speaking of found family he loves them all so much

- Thorne my beloved

I'm sure this has been discussed before, in years past when Redwall was a more active fandom, but. Man Brian Jacques really just flat out forgot what Rufe Brush's personality was supposed to be between Mariel of Redwall and The Bellmaker, didn't he.

I was all for giving him the benefit of the doubt, like maybe since Rufe gets more spotlight in Bellmaker we're just seeing a new side to him or realizing that his "strong, silent" persona was actually just shyness.

But no, Rufe straight up goes from stoically helping lead the Abbey's defenses against Graypatch in one book, to cringing and flinching at the thought of stealing the Pearl Queen in the next. The shrews lend him a rapier and he barely knows which end he's supposed to point. Like buddy why are you shivering in your boots at the thought of facing down a searat crew when you were literally chucking javelins at a different searat crew in the last book you were in.

I'm just going to pretend that Rufe Brush post-Mariel left the abbey to go keep watch for bandits in the woods and left his bellringer duties to his younger and more timid brother, also named Rufe Brush.

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!

The Bellmaker

Mariel of Redwall and it's direct sequal The Bellmaker are some of my top favorites in the large and deeply loved series: Redwall by Brian Jacques. As always, Jacques weaves a wonderful story full of humor, adventure, bravery, heartbreak, love, friendship, and sorrow.

I don't cry easily, but Jacques weaves such wonderfully delightful creatures that when one of my favorites falls in battle, protecting his friends...I cried on my drive home from work as audiobook outlined the beautiful but heartbreaking scene for me.

First of all, LOVE Hon Rosie, I’m Hon Rosie’s #1 fan.

Second, nothing but love to the creator because the poll wasn’t a Redwall post and “named after flowers tournament” is such a cute idea- but I’ve NEVER seen her referred to as just “Rosemary” before lol. I was genuinely confused when I read her name. That’s The HONORABLE Rosemary to you, sah!

Anyway, all fun and games, shoutout to Hon Rosie

I love that the guy who kills Nagru is someone who does not know or care who he is in the slightest. Silvamord at least gets taken out by Muta and Rab, who had been haunting her for the entire book as silent berserk warriors after she tried to kill them both and also spent a lot of time and energy tormenting Muta for shits and giggles. Nagru has loads of named characters who deserve a thematically appropriate crack at him, from Dandin to Mariel to Gael to Serena to Iris to Meldrum and so on and so forth. Hell, why not give Glokkpod a go.

Finnbarr literally just got here. He has no idea who any of these people are. He has a tragic backstory that has absolutely nothing to do with Nagru. He fulfilled his character arc 200 pages ago when they dropped a pirate ship into a giant whirlpool. Nagru has no idea why this buff sea otter is murdering him and it's exactly how he deserves to go out, shine on Finny you beautiful bastard.
