- Blaggut
Blaggut is a searat who was originally boatswain of the ship "Pearl Queen" in
Brian Jacques ' "The Bellmaker ." He and his captain, Slipp, were the only ones to survive their ship being taken. The two found their way to Mossflower, where they came across the mousebabe and Furrtil the molemaid. Blaggut took a liking to the two Dibbuns and prevented Slipp from harming them. Oak Tom and Treerose, squirrels, found the two searats and two Dibbuns. Slipp claimed that he was a cook and Blaggut a carpenter and they were taken toRedwall Abbey .At the Abbey, Slipp tried to find the treasure of Redwall, but he and Blaggut are scared off by Simeon, whom they thought was a black shadow. Blaggut discovered he does have carpentry skills when he made two little boats out of an empty barrel for Furrtil and the mousebabe. In return for making the boats, the two Dibbuns revealed where the secret treasure of Redwall was but it turned out to be just toys.
In anger, Slipp murdered Mother Mellus and the two searats left Redwall. Out in Mossflower, Blaggut killed Slipp for killing Mellus then returned to Redwall with the chalice Slipp had stolen. He explained what happened and decided to move to a cove by the sea where he would spend his life building boats. Blaggut occasionally visited
Redwall Abbey , such as the time when he reported the group that had left Redwall had returned.
