Myrtle was a female mouse and the loving older sister of Matthias. Myrtle rescued her brother from their burning home after Cluny the Scourge attacked their village and left a young Matthias to perish in the flames. She wandered with him on her back through the winter to Redwall Abbey. They were found by Constance and Abbot Mortimer and brought inside. Later, Myrtle died from fatigue.
