Brother Methuselah

Brother Methuselah is a bespectacled wise old mouse, and Gatekeeper at Redwall Abbey. He was well-known for Abbey record-keeping and chronicling, and lived alone.

Methuselah could also understand any creature, as he had the gift of tongues.

In his old age he befriended Matthias, and together they found the tomb of Martin the Warrior.

Methuselah was murdered by Chickenhound while attempting to stop him from robbing the Abbey.

The Methuselah bell was named for him, as well as Mattimeo.
