Dymphnia Witherspyk

Dymphnia Witherspyk was a hedgehog who lived on a large house-raft that floated around the river system of Mossflower Woods. She was the wife of Oakheart Witherspyk and mother to the baby Dubdub. When Buckler, Diggs and Flib first encountered Oakheart's Performing Players, she happily welcomed them onto the Streamless to share supper.

Through a series of events, she, her husband and Dubdub ended up at Redwall Abbey. When Zwilt the Shade invaded the Abbey, he snatched Dubdub straight out of her arms and threatened him with death. Thankfully, the babe was rescued. Later, when Diggs was injured and came to believe himself to be a Salamandastron colonel, she recalled a technique she had used on her own husband to restore his memory.

Dymphnia, her family and the entire Oakheart Performing Company ended up taking residence at Redwall permanently.
