'''Rawnblade Widestripe''', Protector of the Shores, was a male Badger Lord of [[Salamandastron (place)|Salamandastron]]. He was the great-grandson of [[Sunflash the Mace]] and a descendant of [[Bella of Brockhall]], [[Barkstripe]], [[Boar the Fighter]], [[Brocktree]], [[Stonepaw]], and [[Lady Sable Brock]]. His primary weapon was a large [[broadsword]] named "[[Verminfate]]". Rawnblade had a very loose rein on his temper and experienced an intense [[Bloodwrath]]. He was the sworn enemy of all sea vermin, especially [[Gabool the Wild]]. <br />
<br />
Rawnblade found three of his hares dead on the shores of Salamandastron and later sent terrible retribution on the crew of the ''[[Waveblade]]'', the corsairs who murdered them, by slaying the entire lot.<br />
<br />
Later, he journeyed with several woodlanders from [[Redwall Abbey]] to [[Terramort Isle]] to [[Battle of Terramort|fight against Gabool]] and his [[Gabool's Corsairs|vermin]]. Gabool lured Rawnblade into a pit that held a giant black scorpion, [[Skrabblag]], a trick that had previously been used against another one of Gabool's [[Flogga|enemies]]. The spirit of [[Martin the Warrior]] immediately filled Rawnblade with confidence to whirl the scorpion up into the air, out of the hole, and right on top of Gabool, who was stung and killed by it.<br />
<br />
The famous [[Joseph Bell]], crafted by [[Joseph the Bellmaker]], was originally intended for Rawnblade and contained inscriptions which could only be deciphered by a Badger Lord. After it was stolen by Gabool and recovered by [[Mariel Gullwhacker]] and her friends, Rawnblade offered the bell to Redwall Abbey in commemoration of Martin the Warrior for aiding in saving his life. He told the residents what the inscriptions said, and revealed that its name would be Joseph and that its home would be the Abbey.<br />
<br />
===Post-Death===<br />
Rawnblade appeared in a dream to an infant [[Russano the Wise]], along with other heroes of Redwall and Salamandastron.<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*Badger Lords of [[Brock Family|Rawnblade's bloodline]] ruled Salamandastron longer than any other family of badgers. <br />
