Abbot '''Arven''' was a male squirrel leader and Champion of [[Redwall Abbey]]. As a [[Dibbun]], he was very good friends with [[Abbess Tansy|Tansy]] and had a special nickname for her, "Tansy Pansy." When out searching for herbs with Tansy, he accidentally fell into a hole containing the skeleton of the weasel [[Graylunk]], which spurred the search for the [[Tears of all Oceans]].<br />
<br />
Arven was the ringleader of a Dibbun group that included [[Diggum]] and [[Gurrbowl]]. He often led them into mischief and could always be found making trouble somewhere. Once, he ventured into [[Mossflower Woods]] believing that when he was found he would be praised. Despite this, he contributed to the search for the Tears on several occasions.<br />
<br />
As an adult, Arven served as [[Redwall Abbey#Warriors|Abbey Champion]] having received training from [[Martin II]] and fought in the [[Battle of the Ridge of a Thousand]]. [[Martin the Warrior]] visited him in a dream with a warning about the upcoming war. Near the end of his life, Arven served as the Abbot of Redwall for three seasons. He passed away after surviving a harsh winter. [[Abbess Songbreeze Swifteye]] was his successor.<br />
<br />

*Arven is the only Redwaller known to have held the positions of both Abbey Champion and Abbot of Redwall.<br />
*Arven and [[Abbot Thibb|Thibb]] were the only male squirrels known to serve as Abbot.<br />
