Shogg
Species: Otter Place of Origin: Unknown Gender: Male Weapon: Sling, stiletto Death: Killed by Zassaliss
Books Appears in: Triss

Shogg was an otter prisoner on Riftgard along with such creatures as Triss, Welfo, and Drufo. Alongside Welfo and Triss he was sent down to the cages to be executed by Princess Kurda but with Drufo's help the three escaped and fled the island by way of the boat that the Riftgard slaves had constructed for Kurda and Prince Bladd's journey to Mossflower Woods.

Shogg was the only beast who remained with Triss from the beginning of her journey as Welfo eventually stayed on Peace Island to live with the hedgehogs who resided there.

Shogg was a major part of the defense of Redwall Abbey during the siege caused by Plugg Firetail and Princess Kurda. He was eventually slain in the musty corridors of Brockhall by Zassaliss. He was lain down to rest by his friends under a tree in Redwall Abbey.

Triss named the little ketch she, Shogg and Welfo had used in their escape Shogg in his honor; she gave the ketch to Gulif and the Guosim before leaving to free the slaves from Riftgard.

Shogg had a very special relationship with the otter Kroova Wavedog, whom he only knew for a short time but who he already saw as a best friend.
