Skalrag

From the Redwall Wiki Clone, your Redwall news and information resource.

{{#SQuote: |id=9 |text=Foxes was allus traitors. I never liked that one. |speaker=Tramun Clogg }}

Skalrag was a wily, conniving, and haughty male fox. He served as an aide and captain to Badrang the Tyrant in Fort Marshank. His duties included reporting on fortress activity regularly to Badrang. To effectively monitor everyone, Skalrag placed a spy among the slaves, Druwp, who reported regularly to Skalrag, and was rewarded with food and drink. Skalrag was often taken by surprise at just how much information Druwp had.

Skalrag was also one of Marshank's cruel slavedrivers. Once, he was paid back for his cruelty, when the squirrel slave Felldoh ripped off half of his ear with a thrown stone. Felldoh was taken to the prison pit for his insolence.

During one of Tramun Clogg's attacks against Marshank, Skalrag was ordered to take a small complement of archers out to the bay and to burn Clogg's galley, the Seascarab. He was successful, but also unfortunate enough to meet Clogg's corsairs, who captured them.

As a prisoner, Skalrag promised Clogg that he would spy on Badrang in return for his life. Satisfied, Clogg returned Skalrag inside, but Skalrag was executed on the suspicious Badrang's orders.

Nelvana Redwall TV Series

[edit]

In Season 3 of the Nelvana Redwall TV Series, Skalrag's punishment was tickle torture over the Marshank gates, which led to the fox losing his grip and falling to an uncertain fate. In Martin the Warrior, Skalrag is shot at for target practice.
