Gauchee
Gauchee was a female mouse member of the Rambling Rosehip Players. Along with Kastern, she was a balancer, chorus participant, and a cook for the group. Gauchee never ate anything except apples and carrots. She helped free the slaves of Fort Marshank.
While the slaves and performers trained for battle against Badrang the Tyrant, Gauchee listened to Celandine openly criticize the troupe for wanting to fight back, and decided to give the vain squirrel a harsh lesson in responsibility. She later helped the other Rambling Rosehip female members create a barricade during the battle against Badrang and his horde.
After the Battle of Marshank, the Rosehip Players relocated to Noonvale.
