Triss wasn't that intresting.
Agreed. Neither was Martha from Loamhedge.

Martha was a Sue. She was always good and perfect and she didn't even talk like a hare!

I agree. I like characters who are Mischevious.

Well if you put it that way.....she isn't the best character.

I liked Martha, but I agree that she was a total Sue. I roll my eyes whenever I read the description of her in the book.

"Martha Braebuck grew up an extremely bright young creature with a thirst for knowledge. She was a formidable reader and scholar, the equal even of the venerated mouse, Sister Portula, Redwall's Abbey Recorder. Martha could solve riddles and equations, write poems, ballads and even sing. According to popular opinion, she had the sweetest singing voice ever heard within the Abbey walls. She never complained about being chairbound, and was invariably cheerful and willing to help others. The maid was a welcome and useful member of the Redwall Abbey community."   ~ Loamhedge, page 17

Samkim, I just don't like how he had no trouble killing vermin when hare's from the long patrol would be shocked, but apart from that he was okay.

Just saying, there are 2,036 specific Redwall characters.

Hmm...maybe the High Rhulain...to be honest, High Rhulain was one of my least favourite Redwall books...it was still great, but not as good as, say, Mariel of Redwall.

I also agree with folks who said Martha - she was kind of a boring character, and as people ahve been saying, a Sue.
