Spriggat

Spriggat was an old male hedgehog who enjoyed eating insects, bumblebees in particular, and catching them with a net on a string; he was also an excellent tracker.

He saved Samkim and Arula after they were attacked by wasps and instructed them to cover the wounds in mud to heal them.

Spriggat helped Samkim and Arula on their quest to track down Dingeye and Dethbrush and recover the sword of Martin the Warrior. Along the way, he found Dingeye's headless carcass, and taught Samkim that any weapon could be used for good or evil, even Martin's sword.

During their journey, the trio met Alfoh the Elder and his tribe of Guosim shrews. Spriggat was attacked by the Deepcoiler on the Big Inland Lake and died from the resulting wounds.
