The Terrouge Mascots
By: David
When Terrouge's first issue came out, it took the Redwall Online Community by storm. Before long we received letters from fans saying everything underneath the sun! But there are, however, three particular creatures that we consider our biggest fans, and they have become our mascots. We'd like to introduce you all to Skip, Scamp, and Sapphire.
Skip is the oldest of the bunch, and loves to sit and read. He is a peaceful otter, and rarely gets into trouble (unless his companions are the cause), but often has to help Scamp and/or Sapphire out of a predicament. His father is the Skipper of Otters, and they usually live at Redwall Abbey more often than Camp Willow.
Scamp, the youngest, is always on the lookout for adventure. His days are filled with mischief, and more than once has he been caught trying to sneak a pie from the kitchens. Like all hares, he loves to eat, and is usually the only one left at the table after dinner. He also lives at Redwall, his father and mother being Tarquin & Rosie Woodsorrel.
While a perfect gem on the outside, Sapphire is truthfully more of a rogue than Scamp. The pretty ferret has earned a reputation for always trying everything once, including rope-diving from the belltower (which, incidentally, got her kitchen duty for a week ^_^). She is usually the one to suggest a plan to Scamp, and they have done enough mischief to be nicknamed the Terrible Twosome.
Although tending to distract us, all three mascots do help out here and there, usually with presenting the various areas of Terrouge, and sometimes giving helpful information to visitors. While Skip and Scamp usually have something helpful to say, Sapphire always presents the pages. So be on the watch, and if you see them, now you know why they're here!
