'''Ublaz Mad Eyes''' was the male pine marten Emperor of the island [[Sampetra]]. He was strong, sleek, and handsome and had black, almond-shaped eyes and curled, perfumed whiskers. He had fine brown fur, a bushy tail, and a creamy yellow throat and ears. Ublaz's weapons of choice were an ornate, silver-bladed dagger with blue sapphires on the handle, as well as his deadly hypnotic stare, which he used to paralyze and command others. His hypnotic gaze allowed him to control the fearsome monitor lizards, as well as the deadly poisonous coral snake which he used to demonstrate his power. He was also extremely intelligent and observant.

In his youth, Ublaz was a [[:Category:Corsairs|corsair]] who was known for his sword skills. By chance, he found Sampetra, where he established himself as Emperor and commanded an elite troop of monitor lizards, headed by his general [[Lask Frildur]]. He also had a regiment of trident rats, led by [[Sagitar Sawfang]]. Together, they were his left and right paws, and he commanded [[Ublaz's Corsairs|all the corsairs]] who made their berth at the island. As no trees grew on Sampetra, the Emperor kept a massive stockpile of wood behind his palace to ration out to trusted corsair captains when they would bring him tribute.

Ublaz was extraordinarily wealthy, and he acquired an extensive collection of treasure, as well as an expansive wardrobe of silk robes and turbans. He also possessed an ornate crown but refused to wear it until he had six beautiful pearls, the [[Tears of all Oceans]], set into its six prongs. He commanded the corsair captain [[Conva]] to fetch the pearls, but when Conva failed at this task, he murdered the unfortunate stoat and sent out Lask, along with the ferret captain [[Romsca]] and her crew, to retrieve them.

With his elite guards away, Ublaz found his palace under attack by rebellious corsairs, led by the stoat captain [[Barranca]] and later by the fox captain [[Rasconza]]. The fox and pine marten were locked in a battle of wits, and Ublaz was frequently outmaneuvered, which enraged him. After his captains were killed and [[Abbot Durral]] arrived alone on the island, Ublaz imprisoned him and later engaged in combat with [[Martin II]], who was not far behind. During the duel, in which both traded heavy blows, the Emperor stepped on his coral snake. The lethal serpent bit him, and the Emperor died in the depths of his palace having never obtained the pearls.

===Trivia===
*Ublaz is the only pine marten to be a villain leader, and only one of three ever to appear in the ''Redwall'' series.
*Ublaz and [[Gabool the Wild]] reigned as corsair monarchs; despite having numerous enemies, good and bad, both leaders died as the result of secondary characters.
