Sleeve
Sleeve was a young female sea otter slave at Riftgard. She was the wife of Kroova Wavedog and a friend of Trisscar Swordmaid and Drufo. Sleeve was born and raised in Riftgard Fortress, having no memory but that of hardship and cruelty under the rule of the Pure Ferrets. Her parents were also slaves at Riftgard, but they died when she was young.
When Triss and her friends escaped Riftguard, Sleeve assisted in the small slave uprising intended to cause a distraction; this bought the runaways enough time to sail away. Later, Triss returned with a full crew and proceeded to liberate the slaves; during the conflict, Sleeve was nearly slain by a Ratguard, but was rescued by Kroova, whom she later married. She and Kroova also adopted Freedom, an abandoned mouse, as their own child.
Sleeve was the author of the account detailing the overthrowing of the Pure Ferrets' regime; she entrusted her writings to Skipper of Otters, who took them back to Redwall Abbey with him.
