How did Chickensh!t become Slagar...?


Wasn't Chickenhound (I always forget his name and think it's Chickensh!t lol) a wimp in Redwall? He had a conscience too...

It's been a while since I read Mattimeo. Someone refresh my memory?

reply

No he wasn't in Redwall, nor did he have a conscience. He snuck into the Abbey with his mum and they planned to sell out Cluny's plans. They tried to rob the place, and Methuselah caught them in the act. Chickenhound killed Methuselah and bolted. He then got bit by Asmodeus and actually survived (barely). He went crazy and thinks a whole different series of events happened.

Oh. (I haven't read Mattimeo in a while. I don't like that one)

His conscience wasn't very strong in Redwall, but he did feel bad about things. Plus, he told the Abbey-dwellers about Cluny's plans after they were nice to him.

What do you mean he wasn't in Redwall? He was in Redwall as Chickenhound...?

reply

When you said 'a wimp in Redwall', I thought you meant that he lived there, which he didn't. You meant the book right? 'Cause yeah he was in "Redwall".

reply

The thing is, he might have gone a bit crazy when he became Slagar, but he was completely right about what happened. He told Mattimeo that the Redwallers drove them out of the abby (true), leading to his mother's death (true) and they intended to kill him as well (true).

Jacques is so unfair to foxes... :(

Chickenhound and Sela, IMO, were the Redwall equivalents of Wormtail from Harry Potter - cowards and back stabbers through and through
