What Happened to Blaggut?

[Janglur Swifteye]

I've always wondered what happened to my favourite vermin, Blaggut. I know he went on to be a boatbuilder, but being the kind vermin he was, couldn't he have been attacked by other vermin, or by goodbeasts mistaking him for a bad vermin? In my  mind, I always pictured a samllish cave with a sign crudely painted saying "Blaggut's Best Boats", and whenever there is a redwall quester in need, or anything else, he was the chap to go to.

I always imagined him living at Redwall and making boats for the Dibbuns. Just thinking of him confessing makes me want to cry.

[Galedeep]

He is among my favorite characters, I've always imagined him living by the shore building boats for say the Guosim. And sometimes visiting the abbey.

[DanielofRedwall]

He certainly was a great character. Unfortunatly, Mr Jacques never said what happened to him. I assume he lived a quite life, making boatss and occasionally visiting the Abbey and the dibbuns, but that's just pure speculation. As I said, Mr Jacques never said what happened.

I really loved Blaggut...I felt so sad for Blaggut at the end, because he really thought he was gonna die, and, I'm sorry, I don't cry a lot, but I'm crying on the inside whenever something like that happens...

An' the worzt part o' it iz, if yer cryin' on the inzide a hankerchief cannae dry thoze tearz, zae they fall freely.

[Captain Tammo]

What book was he in?

[James Gryphon]

The Bellmaker.

It doesn't directly say what happened, but I generally assume, unless there's good reason to believe otherwise, that characters like that live happily ever after.

Sure, that's probably not how it would go in the *real* world, but in a book, I'm willing to use artistic license.

What a coincidence, I just finished the Bellmaker.  I had always hoped we'd hear more about Blaggut.  Definitely one of my favorite characters.  I resent the idea that people (or rats) can't ever change,  and he proved that anyone can go from good to bad (or vice-versa).

I also love Blaggut. I'm with James, I always assumed he lived happily ever after in his little cove, building boats and occasionally visiting Redwall. I also imagined the little ones taking summer trips to the sea to visit Uncle Blackguts.

[Shinella]

Aww! Blaggut!! One of my faves I think that if there were more chances for other vermin, they would have ended up like him too ^.^ Anyway... I think he may have ended up building boats for anyone who wanted one, and always stopping by at the abbey to fix up the boats that the dibbuns played with and make new ones, of course!

[phoenixfoden]

mabey someone should make a story about the rest of his life. it sounds interesting.

[Skipper]

I always imagined him to got traveling.

[WildDoogyPlumm]

If vermin were to ever try to take over Mossflower, at least Blaggut could stay at the abbey.
During peaceful times, I picture a little house near where the River Moss connects to the ocean, with him building boats outside.  And the Dibbuns come to visit him sometimes.
