Queen Amballa

Amballa (or Ballamum as she was otherwise called) was the Queen of the pigmy shrew colony that lived on the cliffs north of Marshank. She had a son named Dinjer and a husband who had been carried off by a gannet and presumably eaten. She imprisoned Martin, Rose and Grumm for a short while before letting them free because Martin saved Dinjer from another gannet. Later on she joined Martin in the Battle of Marshank.
