Constance

Constance was Redwall Abbey's Badger Mother during Matthias' time. She helped greatly during the Summer of the Late Rose. She was the one who constructed a giant crossbow (with help from the Beaver). The crossbow was fired at Cheesethief, whom she had mistaken for Cluny the Scourge.

When the Abbey was under attack by General Ironbeak in the Summer of the Golden Plain, Constance helped Cornflower in her masquerade as the ghost of Martin the Warrior, providing the deep voice.

Later, when Matthias, Mattimeo and their companions returned to Redwall, Constance became friends with Orlando the Axe. She taught his daughter Auma all she knew, and later the young badgermaid succeeded her as Guardian of Redwall Abbey.

Brian Jacques' grandmother was the inspiration for Constance.
