Log-a-Log was the leader of the Guosim in Mossflower Woods. He was a descendant from a long line of ferry shrews. Log-a-Log directed Matthias to the residence of Squire Julian Gingivere, and with the president Guosim, accompanied the warrior mouse to the quarry where he retrieved the sword of Martin the Warrior from Asmodeus Poisonteeth.
After Guosim's death, Log-a-Log succeeded her as leader of the tribe. He then assisted in the battle for Redwall Abbey against Cluny the Scourge.
Seasons later, Log-a-Log journeyed with Matthias to rescue young beasts from the slaver Slagar the Cruel. He saved Matthias and his companions from a landslide caused by Slagar that was intended to cause them to die of suffocation. When they reached the Kingdom of Malkariss, he was mortally wounded in the battle that ensued. He wanted to be carried up into the sunlight for his last moments, but when the shrews came upon Mattimeo and his companions, they helped to rescue them. Log-a-Log died peacefully smiling because he had fulfilled his quest to help save Matthias' son.
Flugg was named as his successor.
