Tirry Lingl was a male hedgehog who lived with his wife Dearie in northern Mossflower Woods. They shared a cave dwelling with the family of Bruff Dubbo for countless seasons. Tirry and Dearie had four small children, including two male hogs named Gurmil and Tirg and two females, Bitty and Giller. He enjoyed making leaf whistles as a youth. Tirry was friends with Elmjak.
Sunflash the Mace saved the families from a family of five foxes, and they allowed him to stay with them for a period of time.
