Antigra

Antigra was a female stoat member of the Juskarath clan. She was the mate of Gruven I and the mother of Gruven Zann. As a Juskarath, she sported a tattoo consisting of a black line with red dots down her face. Antigra was arrogant and foolish and obsessively believed that her son was the Taggerung. When her chieftain Sawney Rath and his seer Grissoul told her this could not be, her mate Gruven challenged Sawney to battle. Sawney immediately slew Gruven, and forced Antigra to rename her baby after its dead father. From then on, Antigra experienced a deep burning hatred for Sawney and his "pet otter" Tagg.

Many seasons later, Antigra hunted doves from a tree when Sawney Rath ran by her hiding place, chasing a fleeing Tagg; seizing the opportunity, she slew the Juskarath leader with a slingstone. Conspiring with Grissoul, she established her son Gruven Zann as the leader of the renamed Juskazann tribe, and sent him to find and slay Tagg so that he could become the next Taggerung. In Gruven's absence, the Juskazann were taken over by the Juskabor, led by the golden fox Ruggan Bor; Antigra conspired against him, but was found out and slain for her treachery.

Unlike most vermin parents, despite her tendency to chide and chasten her son, Antigra seemed to care for him. However, this may have only been because of her fanatical desire to have a son bear the title of Taggerung, and not from any actual love. ru:Антигра
