Slagar the Cruel (born Chickenhound) is a villainous Anthropomorphic Fox in the book Mattimeo from the Redwall series The fox, seeking vengeance on Matthias and to procure slaves for his employer, took Mattimeo captive and told him his version of events that led to the horrible disfiguration of his face.

They triumphed and returned to Redwall. Some seasons later, Mattimeo became Champion of Redwall and married his childhood friend Tess Churchmouse.

Deyna was born in Redwall Abbey, with a flower birthmark on his paw. The young infant was taken by his father Rillflag to a ford in otter tradition, to have his back touched by running water. Tragedy struck, as Deyna's brave father was murdered by the ferret, Vallug Bowbeast, and the young otter was abducted by the forces of the Juskarath.

According to Juska legend, Deyna's birthmark indicated him as a legendary warrior known as "the Taggerung". With unmatched speed, strength, and skill, the Taggerung would bring glory to the Juska. Thus, Deyna was adopted into the Juskarath, given the tattoo of the tribe, and renamed Zann Juskarath Taggerung, or Tagg for short.

For fifteen seasons Tagg was raised by the vermin horde. However, despite his deadly skill, he never took the life of anyone. This angered the tribe leader, Sawney Rath (Tagg's adoptive father), causing Tagg to run off with his adoptive father's dagger. Traveling towards the mountains, he came upon a brave harvest mouse named Nimbalo the Slayer. Nimbalo the Slayer is an Anthropomorphic Mouse in the book The Taggerung from the Redwall series by Brian Jacques. The two became friends, and shared many adventures. However, their good times came to an end when a pack of Juska caught up with them, only to be driven off. Seeking vengeance for injured and slain friends, the duo pursued.

While chasing his adversaries, Tagg dreamed of Martin the Warrior and Redwall Abbey. Redwall Abbey is the Fictional refuge of many of the "good" creatures in the Redwall series by Brian Jacques. He saw the faces of his father, mother, and sister from out of the past. Martin constantly repeated his old name to him, but Tagg thought the mouse was introducing himself. Later, after interrogating a Juska, he learned the truth. Seeking Redwall, right along the path of the vermin, they were both captured. Nimbalo by the vermin and Deyna (Tagg) by the Redwallers (because of his barbarious appearance, they thought he was a vermin on initial sight).

Locked in the cellars of Redwall, Tagg told his story to several Abbey beasts. When he heard that Nimbalo had been captured, he begged release. His wish granted, he took up the sword of Martin the Warrior, inadvertently bumping into his mother on the way out. Attacking with all his might, Tagg slew two Juska, but suffered a bad wound from an arrow.

With the Redwallers unable to do anything for him, Skipper of Otters took Tagg to see an old otter healer, Rukky Garge. In the Fictional Redwall series of novels by Brian Jacques, the Skipper of Otters is what Otters call their leader She was successful, and even removed the birthmark and tattoos.

Long Patrol is the legion of hares stationed at Salamandastron in Brian Jacques 's Redwall series A Badger Lord is the ruler of Salamandastron in the Redwall series by Brian Jacques.

Russano faced down the current Juska leader, a golden fox named Ruggan Bor, who surrendered peacefully. Russano told him that the Juska tribe, now called the Juskabor, must go back to where they came from and never return to Redwall or Mossflower Woods again; the Juska turned and left. The world of Redwall In the fictional world of Redwall, Mossflower Woods is the large forested woodland area surrounding Redwall Abbey. The Long Patrol told the Juska they must travel on all fours until sundown; they'd be following them to make sure they did. The Juska obeyed, leaving peacefully.

The edge, sharpened by Tam at the behest of Martin the Warrior, beheaded Gulo. Tam returned to Redwall, becoming the Abbey Warrior. Some time later, he and Armel wed and had a daughter named Melanda, who became as skilled with weapons as her father and was eventually made the abbey recorder.
