Holt Rudderwake is located inside a large cave on the isle of Ruddaring, a mountain in the Western Sea. It is led by Wallyum Rudderwake. The otters of Rudderwake farmed melons and other tropical fruits, and specialized in making shellfish soups.

According to legend, four otter families escaped a corsair ship and found Ruddaring by accident. They battled the monitor lizard residents and successfully took the island. Thanks to the apparent inaccessibility of the area, the holt has been able to hide its presence and enjoy safety and prosperity from corsairs or invaders for several generations.

Grath Longfletch, Martin II, Clecky, Plogg, Welko, and Viola Bankvole were the first mainland visitors to the holt.

The Hawm seals reside relatively closely to the holt and are good friends and allies of the otters.
