'''Darkclaw''' was a solid, reliable rat captain in the [[Cluny's Horde|horde]] of [[Cluny the Scourge]]. He was considered by everyone in the horde, himself included, to be the third-in-command under Cluny and [[Redtooth]]. Cluny believed that Darkclaw was an intelligent Captain.<br />
<br />
When Redtooth disappeared in mysterious circumstances (he was thrown to his death by [[Constance]], but Cluny never learned this), Cluny promoted the eager [[Cheesethief]] over Darkclaw, though it was a ruse to get rid of an over-ambitious potential rival. The trick worked perfectly, as Cheesethief was killed by Constance, who thought he was Cluny.<br />
<br />
In the aftermath of the [[Siege Tower|siege tower]]'s failure, Cluny temporarily lost confidence in his leadership abilities, and Darkclaw took charge until he recovered, appointing [[Fangburn]] and [[Killconey]] as his lieutenants. He tried to get the horde into [[Redwall Abbey]] through the tunnel that Killconey had built. Unbeknownst to the rats, [[Chickenhound]] had informed the Redwallers about the tunnel, and the moles had discovered the exact route. The Redwallers set a trap for the vermin, and the moment Darkclaw poked his head through the tunnel exit, he was drenched by a cascade of boiling water that was poured into the tunnel, instantly killing him. Shortly after his death, Cluny saw Darkclaw in a dream featuring several of his dead captains.<br />
<br />
===Nelvana Redwall TV Series ===<br />
In the Nelvana [[Redwall TV Series]], Darkclaw is Cluny's second-in-command from the beginning and appears as a large, strong, and cunning rat with [[Redtooth]] serving as a subordinate under him. <br />
<br />
In the episode ''[[A Favour Returned]]'', when Cluny's horde attempts to enter the Abbey through a tunnel, Darkclaw is unable to exit the tunnel in time ands ends up doused with boiling water by Constance. Unlike ''Redwall'', Darkclaw survives with injuries. He is killed off-screen in ''[[The Final Conflict]]'' episode, the [[Redwall - Season 1|season one]] finale.<br />
