Redwall Wiki | Brian Jacques and Redwall Information

Ripfang the searat was captain of the Bloodwake. His left fang was abnormally long, hence his name. Cunning and clever, he took many slaves from different vessels, including Log-a-Log Big Club and Timballisto. Unlike other corsairs, Ripfang was unafraid of Salamandastron, and personally scouted out the mountain prior to launching his attack.

Despite his efforts, Ripfang was crushed to death by Boar the Fighter when the badger fulfilled a prophecy written on Salamandastron's walls, dying in the process.

Brian Jacques on Ripfang[]

In a Redwall.org-hosted question-and-answer session with Brian Jacques, he was asked "In Mossflower there is a searat captain Ripfang. In Lord Brocktree there is another searat captain Ripfang. Are both these searat captains the same animal?" by a reader.

He responded: "No, it's just a coincidence."
