On Swans

Blacktooth and Splitnose both threw spears at a swan in Mossflower. This counts as a "slay" attempt. They are Grey Characters in that we do not know whether they are truly "good" or "bad". Sure they are defensive, but that doesn't mean they're bad characters. -- LordTBT File:Tbtico.jpg ^Talk! 22:53, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

Right!

They're protecting their children/eggchicks Shieldmaiden File:Matthias2.JPG ^Talk! 19:04, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

I don't think the grey character tag applies for swans.

If a swan or any creature's fighting back in self-defense, I don't think they'd be considered a grey character. How can a swan be "grey" if it's simply trying to protect itself and its young? Many Redwallers/goodbeasts killed in self-defense and weren't considered grey characters for doing it. If anything that fights back in self-defense is going to be labeled "grey," I think almost every goodbeast from the books would be listed here too. --WildloughRhulain File:Tiria.JPG ^{Taste stones!} 04:30, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

It's the fact that they are fighting in defense against good and bad characters, and good and bad characters are afraid of them. -- LordTBT File:Tbtico.jpg ^Talk! 04:53, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

guess their character tag can only be opinionated since they can not be truly evil but can be good so I think they fit into the good/gray category. --ZoSo159 00:22, January 15, 2010 (UTC)

This article covers "Swans", as an entity. Swans recur throughout the series. -- LordTBT File:Tbtico.jpg ^Talk! 22:38, May 11, 2017 (UTC)
