User:Astar Goldenwing
Hello everyone! I'm very glad to join Redwall Wiki, as I'm a big Redwall fan! I like Redwall books very much and looking forward to reading and rereading them!
About me
[edit]I'm 25 years old and I live in Russia not far from Samara. I first read Redwall book in 2004 - I saw The Long Patrol in the shop and decided to buy it. After this, I began looking for other Redwall books as I liked them. I also liked Redwall TV Series very much. As I learned English in school, I can enjoy reading Redwall books in the original (what I like to do) and being part of Redwall community. Despite the fact that I've finished my university and work as an economist, I didn't "outgrow" Redwall - the series are still one of my favourite.

My Fursonas
[edit]Name: Astar Goldenwing
Species: Hare
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Appearance: Astar is a golden-furred haremaid with dark chocolate-brown eyes and darker eartips. She wears a pair of gold earrings, but no other jewellery. She usually wears green tunic with a belt, and she's goes barefoot most of the time.
Weapon(s) of choice: Javelin, sling.
Personality: Astar is very loyal to her friends and will stick with them whatever happens. She is a peaceful beast and tries to avoid battles, but when forced to fight, she fight with all her fury. Astar is also a very fast runner. However, she is quite boastful, never missing an opportunity to show off her pride for her family and herself, so thus she can be annoying. Like all hares, she's very fond of the food and eating in general.
Name: Brittle Downriver
Species: Otter
Gender: Female
Age: 33
Appearance: Brittle is an average sized otter with light brown fur and pale cream underbelly and cheeks and hazel eyes. She wears long light blue tunic that resembles a fish’s tail, simple beaded necklace and a cloth armband on her right wrist as well as an earring with black raven feather with grey tip attached to it in her left ear.
Weapon(s) of choice: None
Personality: Brittle is a typical good wife and mother, kind and caring, reasonable and practical, always calm and serving as a peacekeeper during any conflict. However, there is hidden steel in her, and she wouldn’t let anyone hurt her family and friends. She isn’t afraid to make decisions and face danger to save her loved ones.
Theme Songs for my stories
[edit]Some theme songs for my stories and characters, mostly in Russian... because it's not easy to glean play list of foreign songs.
Abbess Bikkle and Redwall Abbey in general: ‘Come and Be Welcome’ by Heather Dale
Freedom and Maple: ‘Одной крови’ (‘Of one blood’) by Мельница (The Mill)
Squirrels in general and Broom and Maple in particular: ‘Гимн деревьям’ (‘Hymn for the Trees’) by Мельница (The Mill)
Olva: ‘Eufonius’ by Clannad
Foxglove: ‘My Only, My Own’ by Heather Dale. Makes me so sad for Foxglove…
Betta: ‘Песня волка’ (‘Wolf’s song’) by Мельница (The Mill)
Skvold: ‘Воин’ (‘Warrior’) by Мельница (The Mill). The reluctant warrior who wished for piece… Also, ‘The Old Duke’ by Heather Dale.
Skvold and Hlokk: ‘Fille Du Roy’ by Heather Dale. This song is just perfect for them…
Seabird: ‘The Maiden and the Selkie’ by Heather Dale
'Cripple'
Kyle: ‘Баллада о трех сыновьях’ (‘The ballad of three sons’) by Мельница (The Mill)
Naita: ‘Белая кошка’ (‘White cat’) by Мельница (The Mill). It’s a lovely lullaby.
Farl: ‘Drunken Sailor’ by The Chieftains; ‘Lannigan’s Ball’ by Spiritual Seasons. Yeah, all drinking songs… because that’s what he would do given choice.
Viscum: ‘Черная луна’ (‘Black moon’) by Агата Кристи (Agatha Christie – the rock group, not the writer). ‘I’ll never know why he needs your soul, for it wouldn’t burn even in hell…’; ‘Легенда о вратах’ (‘The legend of the gates’) by Мельница (The Mill): Viscum’s philosophy in a nutshell.

Guosim: ‘The Carter’s War song’ by Heather Dale
The oarslaves of Scorched Ground: ‘The Greyhound’ by Heather Dale
Varyg Rotatoskr: ‘Flowers of Bermuda’ by Heather Dale
Korie: ‘Ride On’ by Celtic Women. Just think of Korie’s sacrifice so that Varyg could have kept his vow… without her. ‘Ride on, see you, I could never go with you No matter how I wanted to. When you ride into the night without a trace behind, Run your claw along my gut, one last time. I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie, And look for a spark that lights the night through a teardrop in my eye.’
Rarog Zann Taggerung: ‘На Север’ (‘Northwards’) by Мельница (The Mill)
Cregga Rosehip: ‘Skyrim Theme’ by Celtic Women
Badgerwife from Cregga's dream: 'I See Fire' by Celtic Women
