Gulo was extremely formidable not only because of his vicious nature, but because of his species, as well. However, that does contribute to his overall violent behavior for the most part.

I really liked Plugg Firetail, too! Plugg could be comedic, but was serious at times, as well. In addition to that, he was well-liked by his crew, unlike a lot of captains in the series, whose crew usually plot against them.

Oooh, I can't stand that Tugga Bruster! He was such a jerk, but karma caught up with him, so I was glad that happened.

One of the things that I noticed Brian Jacques started doing far less frequently in the books following Taggerung (well, technically Triss since it said Skipper was Deyna's descendant, but that isn't much) was mentioning characters from previous books or featuring a character from another book after they have aged a bit, so I appreciate how much Mr. Jacques included Gonff, Columbine, and even Dinny in Doomwyte. The only other time I can think of that happening was in High Rhulain when Lord Urthwyte the Mighty was mentioned, along with the Galedeep clan and the Streambattle clan. However, these were more minor things.
