'''Grumm Trencher''' was a male mole resident of [[Noonvale]]. He was the uncle of [[Bungo]], and close friends with [[Laterose of Noonvale|Rose]] and [[Brome]] and later, [[Martin the Warrior]] and [[Pallum]]. Grumm always carried a ladle in his belt, having a passion for cooking soup.

Grumm traveled with Rose to [[Fort Marshank]] in an effort to rescue Brome from [[Badrang the Tyrant]]. His natural abilities for burrowing underground allowed him to create a tunnel underneath the fort and extricate Martin the Warrior, Brome, and [[Felldoh]] from the slave pit. Although intended as a temporary construct, Grumm's tunnel proved very solid and was used many times during the action around the fort, by liberated slaves as well as by invading [[Badrang's Army|horde rats]]. Later, it was used as a trap against the vermin and it became their tomb.

Grumm was an excellent cook with an ability to develop a solid meal out of any ingredients available to him. He considered meal preparation to be a very serious and important affair and acted as a general in charge of a mission in the gathering of food. Grumm also possessed a very healthy appetite and incurred [[Mildwort Mirdop]]'s strong disapproval when he had the audacity to request a second scone for tea.

His attraction to food sometimes led Grumm into unexpected trouble. He once disturbed a nest of particularly fierce bees as he was looking for water and had to be rescued from his predicament by Martin and Rose.

Grumm and his friends traveled to Noonvale, then back to Marshank to [[Battle of Marshank|aid]] the [[Fur and Freedom Fighters]]. He tried to fight Badrang, and Rose intervened to save his life. However, she was killed directly after. Once the battle ended, Grumm grieved her death and would later plant a rose, named for her, on her grave.

===Trivia===
*In medieval cuisine, a trencher was a stale piece of bread used for a plate.
*Grumm is the first ''Redwall'' character to speak Martin's full title, "Martin the Warrior", during his lifetime, albeit in molespeech.
