Talk:Drufo

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

What's the point in adding any connection between the characters Drufo and Triss if all it does is mess the wiki up?

Aren't Drufo's murder and her father's murder the two things, apart from freeing the slaves, that have Triss vowing to come back to Riftgard? Drufo tells Triss about her father. Triss mentions her vow to avenge Drufo repeatedly through the book.

I ask because I tried adding a connection on that page and on others; people said that it wasn't relevant enough for the Triss character article and removed it. Maybe the Drufo page should be deleted and the Drufo hyperlinks in all the other pages it's linked to removed. I'm just trying to help. --Tiria Wildlough File:Hrusclean.jpg Ee aye eeeh!! 04:34, August 1, 2013 (UTC)


Weird last names

[edit]

I don't understand how Triss' father is Rocc Arrem, yet her last name is Swordmaid. The same for Mem Devinia and Cornspurrey Tussock. Could someone tell me how that works? --You're always welcome at my mountain. [[image:Defenders.jpg (talk) 16:28, July 16, 2015 (UTC)

What don't you understand exactly? Even in the real world, there are many families where parents and offspring have different surnames. Even spouses can have different last names. -- LordTBT File:Tbtico.jpg Talk! 08:01, July 19, 2015 (UTC)

Yes, but even then, one character has a last name, then his or her's father has no last name or something like that. Is it a inconsistency that Brian Jacques accidentally made or what? --Snowstripe File:Urthstripe.jpgYou're always welcome at my mountain. 17:04, August 11, 2015 (UTC)

As far as i understand it, names in Redwall doesn't always operate as last/family names in real names, and very often they are monikers that are earned. I don't remember if 'Swordmaid' was a part of Triss' given name or her moniker, but I can give example of Inbar from 'Pearls of Lutra', who is called 'Trueflight' even though his father is called Wallyum Rudderwake. --Astar Goldenwing (talk) 19:32, August 11, 2015 (UTC)
How is it an inconsistency? Some characters have last names, some don't. Some have different surnames. Just like real life. Not seeing the problem. -- LordTBT File:Tbtico.jpg Talk! 22:24, August 11, 2015 (UTC)
