Barrool was a large one-eared male otter captain in Garraway Bullow's holt. He assisted with slaying members of the Flitchaye and reported to the Otterqueen that the vermin would no longer attack the young otters of the tribes. Barrool was in a hurry to eat at the feast organized to welcome Martin the Warrior and his friends, but he had to make his report to the queen first. Cap'n Barrool was a minor character and not much else is known about him.
