User blog comment:Bluestripe the Wild/Gray Characters In Redwall/@comment-1479469-20100606053820

You make some good points, but I wish to note that moralirt in Redwall is pretty much determined by race. If you're a "vermin" species, you default to evil, and if you're an "other" speicies, you default to good (or, rarely, neutral). As a result, any "good" species characters who do evil things (i.e Fenno, who was an out-and-out evil character) are gray, and even the best-behaved vermin (i.e. Blaggut) remain gray. It's kind of BS-y in my opinion, but that's unfortunately how it works.
