The Marlfoxes were a mysterious brood of foxes with pale eyes and mottled silver-white fur, rumored to posess magical powers of invisibility. These rumors were apparently perpetuated by their very real stealth capabilities. Only one family of Marlfoxes appears in the series, though presumably more have existed in the past.

Silth and an unnamed male Marlfox helped to conquer an island in the middle of the Great Inland Sea while in the company of an ordinary fox tribe and an army of water rats. Taking control of the rats, the two Marlfoxes slew the rest of the tribe. Silth later gave birth to seven cubs, before slaying her mate because of a rulership dispute. At some point Silth oversaw the construction of Castle Marl, the Marlfox lair.

Silth and her descendents all died either in battle or due to their own treachery during a conflict with Redwall Abbey. This most likely marks the end of the Marlfox race.

Guard CommandEdit

Guard Commanders were water rats, who had a black livery marking, which made them different from water rats of lower rank. The member of Guard Command carried a short spear with a leaf blade and a small round buckler shield.

• Rigglent

Water RatsEdit

A large (at least 400 strong) army of water rats served the Marlfoxes as soldiers - 200 of them were sent out with Mokkan and the rest and ended up providing the bulk of the force assaulting Redwall. The rats were loyal to the Marlfoxes only through fear of their own deaths, and most of them become peaceful farmers upon the defeat of their masters, throwing their weapons into the lake.

Teeth of The DeepsEdit

Teeth of The Deeps were a cannibal pike shoal, which lived in the waters of Great Inland Sea nearby Marlfox Island. First poor Rigglent was fed to them by the order of High Queen Silth and then Mokkan the Marlfox pushed his sister Lantur in the lake for food of pikes. While attempting to escape from the island, Mokkan was spotted by Nettlebud. She threw a chain at him, which knocked him into the water, where he was eaten by the pikes.
