You forgot voles!

Anyway, since the voles aren't there, moles are my least favorite.

Are you crazy! otters are awesome.

I would say voles but since they are not there i chose shrews. I actually like shrews its just that they argue a lot and thats just my least favorite out of the list.

I voted shrews because voles weren't an option.  Shrews I like a teeny bit less than the others.  I don't like their lack of mercy sometimes.

AbbotAlf0805, the otters rock! Oh well, everyone has opinions. The Gawtribe from Martin the Warrior was bad anyway but I hated them.

The squirrels. They always had a tendancy to see things in black and white, never the shades of gray that the mice did. Also, some were so sure and full of themselves: like Felldoh and Mr. Reguba (Dannflor's father).

The squirrels were the best species by far! Rakkety Tam killed a Wolverine, Song was a great Abbess and Singer, Dannflower Reguba was honorable, Arven was everything that the Abbey ever had! Triss was a great friend, and that's just a few of 'em! I'm waiting for voles.

(modified) The badgers are the ones who are full of themselves, were did you ever come up with the idea that squirrels were full of themselves?! It's not fair to judge those who were in anguish, Dannflors' father lost his wife, Felldoh spent his life as a slave, they were angry NOT full of themselves.

Well, I don't care for quite a few of them so I didn't vote. One of my least favourite is badgers. They're always too powerful.
Another one I don't like is voles, cause they're always sour and unpleasant and sometimes they're traitors.

Why does everyone stereotype voles as grumpy and irritable and occasionally traitorous?  There are plenty of good voles who help the story and are good friends, like Burble and the vole tribes from Taggerung and Triss.

Since I read more books since the time I posted, voles are my least favorite. Voles are usually grey characters. The one in Eulalia! was the worst so far.

But not all the Voles were bad (though most of them were annoying). Like the ones in Taggerung.

I don't like their character. Even the ones in the Abbey were usually grouchy.

I can't stand badgers. The majority of them are too violent and don't listen to reason.
I'm also not very fond of most of the hares and shrews, and there were a few otters I couldn't stand. Eh, I guess I'm more of a vermin kind of girl.

Yes it was made for a mouse but that doesn't mean all the ones who wield it have to be mice too and I have put that I do like most of the early mice but I prefer vermin anyway

Then it looks like both Mice and Squirrels who hogged the sword. Why not give moles a chance? They are very rarly ever hero's or warriors. The only time that I can think of a warrior mole was that one in The Sable Quean (can't remember his name). Even if moles are my least favourite good guy spieces, I wish they got more chances of being hero's.

Hares and otters also wielded the sword of Martin, It might have been nice if some hedgehogs, shrews, or badgers wielded the sword too.

Excuse me? The sword is handed to the one most worthy (obviously showing why I like squirrels so much  :P) Moles are more peaceable, badgers are too large for Martin's sword, Voles are wimps, Hedgehogs are too slow, leaving the three main good guy species.

BTW There weren't a LOT of squirrel wielders: Samkim, Triss, Dannflower Reguba, Rakkety Tam, Arven. 6 is not a lot.

@Romsca: You nailed the spelling.

@Everyone: There is no such thing as "hogging" Martin's sword, Martin chooses who it goes to, and when, are you trying to say that Martin doesn't know what he's doing? Are you VERMIN!!??!  ;D

Why doesn't anyone like voles?

Some may be a bit grumpy at times, but some, like Burble from Marlfox, Rollo from Mattimeo and Pearls of Lutra, and Lettie from Mattimeo, were very brave creatures with big hearts.

More like there are more mouse champions than any other creature, but the others put together just barely out number the mice.
