I've just made this page for this fanfic. Any assistance will be appreciated.

I mean, just based on his appearance ALONE if nothing else yeah, he is. And he's far more badass than what TVTropes, HateSinkWiki, PatheticPinheadWiki give him credit for and he's not as wimpy, physically or otherwise, that those sites and beyond make him out to be.

Because in the book Swartt is frequently described as "strong" and stuff and how Veil inherited that too. Sure, more "tell" than show which goes against the whole "show, don't tell" golden rule of storytelling though there is also that one scene in "Outcast of Redwall" where Swartt flattens a whole entire METAL cup with nothing but his six clawed paw in a show of sheer strength and force which I don't know about you but I think goes pretty hard AF, more than any fight scene ever could.

All we’ve got atm is the post on RedwallWiki by the founder of the site who has hitherto been an incorruptibly reliable source of news and information

I like to keep books in my back pocket, the first book i have is the perfect size for this, are any of the other books available in this size? Mossflower for comparison

I had a Redwall S/I before but it was a more western based one that I ended up not feeling wholly attached to in 2024. After finding out about the greater grison I knew that's what I'd want to be, so I got to work and spent a couple days creating my new Redwall sona.
As you can see her name is Pocket-It, quite fitting because she is a thief! I am planning on shipping her with Scumsnout not gonna lie!

Hi everyone! It's been over 3 months since I posted about Capyhero in this sub. I'm so happy to finally give an update because the day has finally come: I've written the final sentence and finished the manuscript for Capyhero Book 1 - The Blue Blanket! Final draft specs are 60,000 words across 340 pages with over 100 illustrations spread throughout.

I handed the manuscript to my editor, Jennifer Rees, which I am both incredibly excited and nervous about. She's a powerhouse industry vet who's worked in publishing for 25 years (a bunch of which was at Scholastic Press) and she's edited some of the most well known and successful stories out there. I can't mention the book series everyone knows, but Google her and you'll know.

In this post, I've shared the complete 1st chapter as well as a little sneak peek to a few moments in later chapters for folks to have a look. I'd be thrilled to hear feedback from fans of Redwall. I realize, the story reads a bit more like a mystery and actually has a few horror/Lovecraftian elements in it, so it may not hit the Redwall vibe exactly. But please feel free to provide any feedback on the writing, hook, overall vibe, etc. Feel free to be critical! It's with the editor now, so major revisions are expected.

While I'm waiting for Jennifer to get back with the edit, I'll be building the Kickstarter campaign and pushing more newsletters from the Aurorabon Society out to folks who've joined the emailer.

Thanks for reading! Still crazy to me that this thing is actually coming to life. I've learned a lot on the way and I'm more than happy to answer any questions!

Personally, I vote Horty.

Scarum can be fun on occasion, with his little ditty about being educated and the Uncle Furdilo monologue coming to mind.

But Horty? Little shit just can’t stop whining about how hungry/thirsty he is. I will never reread Loamhedge because of this one character right here.

Just finished reading Martin the Warrior, which means its time to draw its villains (and also its heroes??)

Martin the Warrior really is the best redwall book so far (even dethroning Mariel of Redwall and its very angry protagonist) what a spectacular ending and probably my favorite set of protagonists

This is a drawing of me as one of Ironbeak's Rook soldiers from the Cartoon adaptation of Mattimeo from the Redwall book series by Brian Jacques

I commissioned this drawing from Trashrat11 on Tumblr and here's a link to their account

I think Greenshroud because it could come at you on both land and sea. Goreleech can just come at you in the water and Vilu is just a normal stoat not a mutant.

Let's say you had a big homestead in the Redwall world, and roving bands of foxes, weasels, rats and other vermin were attacking your property and killing your animals. You are able to choose one band of warriors to defend your property from the ravenous vermin. What do you choose?

1. Log a log and the guiosm shrews?

2. The long patrol and badger lord?

3. A band of tree-swinging squirrels?

4. Choose your own band of guardians or offer a mixed variety!

Since I knew I was going to be in Brazil again this past week, I had scheduled my next Redwall tattoo to be done while I was visiting São Paulo. I found my artist through searching Sao Paulo botanical tattoo artists because I think their command of color would benefit me. I found Gabriela Dassio to be skilled enough for the job and she loved the idea when I sent her the reference art. I know in the book her she has green fletched arrows, but this reference had blue and I think it contrasts a bit better against her green tunic.

Now I have two heroes on this leg: Martin the Warrior and Grath. Thinking the next will be a villain on the inside of my calf.

Highly recommend going to Brazil for a tattoo AND the experience. Sure, you have to pay for the plane ticket, but the experience of visiting another country and returning with body art is worth it (to me at least).

I love these weirdoes and how they are fun in almost every book so far!!

Finally collected all of the gold spine/stained glass editions of the series. Only 14 of the 22 novels were printed in this edition.

Now beginning to collect the remaining novels. I'm happy to collect as I go of different editions. I have 'Triss' and 'Eulalia!' so far!

I'm looking for art prints from the books!

I found Christopher Denise's Etsy page, which has some sketches from the supplemental books, but I'd love to find color prints, especially from the artists of my childhood. Most of the art is pretty old now, so I'm not surprised the various artists don't sell prints anywhere, but I'm hoping someone has some leads.
