This poll is to determine who everyone's favorite villain is. If you do not like any of the above, select "other". You may vote for two villains, and you can change your vote if you want.

To start, I will vote Ublaz (obviously!).

Swartt Sixclaw and Urgan Nagru ;D

I have no idea why I think Urgan Nagru is... EPIC!... but I do :D :P

And once, my mom accidentally called me "Swartt Sixclaw". She said she just knew it was a Redwall name from a book she hadn't read. She didn't know who it was, exactly

Vilu Daskar

Never trust a smiling pirate.  :D

I can do that because I'm awesome.

Redwaller

Cluny the Scourge:

My first book I read in the Redwall Series was Redwall, and so I like him very much. And he was also a very cunning warlord, finding mutinies in his crew and taking care of them swiftly, and making good plans.

Ublaz Mad Eyes:

My favourite villain of all times! I just loved his hypnotising powers, and his cunning plans.

DOCTOR: How is that news to anyone?

-Sometime later, the second mate was unexpectedly rescued by the subplot, which had been trailing a bit behind the boat (and the plot). The whole story moved along.

Ungatt Trunn

HEY! You forgot to put Ungatt Trunn up there! He's my favourite villain by far!

Life is too short to rush through it.

Shadowed One

Riggu Felis: He was a wildcat, making him a great fighter, and also a cunning strategist. If Tiria had not killed him how she did, he would have been very hard to defeat!
Martin the Warrior is way more epic than Mickey Mouse. Anyone who says otherwise is insane, or just wrong.

"I'm languishing in heroic obscurity!"-Doc

Captain Tammo

Ublaz!

I thought his ability was incredible and very creative on Jacques' part. Although I do think Cluny is up there, too.  He was the first and, in my opinion, one of the strongest villains in the series.
"Cowards die a thousand times, a warrior only dies once. The spirits of all you have slain are watching you, Vilu Daskar, and they will rest in peace now that your time has come. You must die as you have lived, a coward to the last!" -Luke the warrior

I never gave my reasons for liking Cluny and Swarrt

Cluny: He seemed like a smart strategist and planner and kept his army under his command and quickly wiped out any rebellion that could be brewing. All that Redwaller said about him I agree with.

Swarrt: He was so AWESOME! I loved how he was so sneaky and his mind tricks he played on others. Also, there was the poison cup!  ;D

Sorry, Ungatt Trunn! I might edit the poll later.

I liked Graypatch, but I'm not quite sure why.

I don't know about "favorites," but Ferahgo the Assassin is probably the villain that scares me the most. Of the three warlords who ever laid siege to Salamandastron, he was the only one who stayed there for a protracted battle against a healthy Long Patrol, and the only one who personally ended up costing the opposing badger lord his life. But I think the most menacing thing about him is the knife-throwing. He kills enemy after enemy without having to get up close.

I do recognize Swartt for being the villain in the first book I read in the series. And probably of every single villain out there, he seems like the most outwardly, ferociously dangerous. He's just... angry. The whole book long. The scariest thing about him isn't that he seems all that smart or all that good at fighting compared to the other warlords in the series--at least to me--but just that he wants to do so much harm so often. But maybe I need to re-read that book. Maybe he's smarter that I give him credit for and it's just that his savagery overwhelms it all.

And Cluny the Scourge does strike me as the most... I don't know, "classic" of the villains? Incredibly smart and persistent. Maybe he's not quite as much of a mastermind as Slagar, but that might work to his advantage, even--he's a little more direct and efficient.

But like I said, I don't know that I'd call any of them "favorites" for those kinds of reasons.

Hmm... maybe Ungatt Trunn? He's got just a little, subtle amount of the honor that shows up in other members of his family (the more prominent honor that shows up in Verduaga, and then the completely protagonistic nature Gingivere ends up with, but I don't want to pick any of them, because Verdauga's barely around, and Gingivere's not at all a villain). And Ungatt Trunn does seem like the most physically powerful of all the warlords, even though I figure Gulo the Savage is probably technically stronger than him. Gulo the Savage seems kind of brutish, but Ungatt Trunn has this sort of Bane thing going on. Practically everyone who comes near him is deathly afraid of him, and he kills creatures without hardly seeming to pay attention to the fact that that's what he's doing.

And he is the villain in my favorite book.

I don't know! What makes a villain likeable?

I wouldn't say I liked Groddil (from Lord Brocktree) But after I read the end I really wanted to see him come back in a different book.
I am back... sort of... maybe... Hi?

I guess it's just how...well...I'm not sure either. I guess it's just how evilly intelligent his plans are, and how well he leads his forces, and the like.
