'''Ovus''' was an extremely old, gluttonous male tawny owl, and a good friend of [[Bluddbeak]]. He appeared when the [[Redwall Abbey|Redwallers]] were frightened by the three adders, [[Zassaliss]], [[Harssacss]], and [[Sesstra]]. After hearing about the danger of the snakes, Ovus doggedly flapped off to the [[Northern Mountains]] to find Bluddbeak, who, in his younger days, had been famed for being an adder killer. <br />
<br />
The tawny owl brought the red kite back to Redwall Abbey, then, against the wishes of several Abbey residents, the two birds went off to hunt the snakes. However, even Bluddbeak could do nothing about Zassaliss, Harssacss, and Sesstra, for his age had severely diminished his power. Both he and Ovus were slain by the snakes, and the kite's body was carried off by the adders, but the body of Ovus was buried in [[Mossflower Woods]] by the Redwallers.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*It is highly likely that Ovus' name is based off of ''ovum'', the Latin prefix which denotes anything to do with eggs.<br />
