Redwall Wiki | Brian Jacques and Redwall Information

A tall rat, Redtooth was second-in-command of Cluny the Scourge's horde. Ambitious and slightly arrogant, Redtooth was totally loyal to his leader. Redtooth acted as spokesrat for Cluny at Redwall Abbey when reading Cluny's articles to the new recruits.

During Cluny's conference with Abbot Mortimer and other members of Abbey leadership, Redtooth was again instructed to read the articles, but halfway through, Matthias destroyed them with his staff. A slight scuffle began, in which Constance laid Redtooth flat. As the two rats left the Abbey, Constance threw the torn articles, mixed with rotten vegetables, at Redtooth, hitting him in the face. This began an enmity between them which lasted for the rest of Redtooth's life.

While escorting Sela through Mossflower Woods, he got into a scuffle with fellow captain Fangburn, accidentally allowing Sela to escape. After the unlucky pair separated to find her, Redtooth ran into Constance. Redtooth tried to fight the badger, scoring a few wounds on her, but she grabbed his tail and threw him against a tree at an incredible velocity, killing him instantly. His body was later devoured by Asmodeus Poisonteeth.

Nelvana Redwall TV Series[]

In the Nelvana Redwall TV Series, Redtooth appears less intelligent, loyal, and capable, as Darkclaw is Cluny's second-in-command from the beginning. He doesn't develop a rivalry with Constance. While disinterested in Cheesethief's talks of mutiny, Redooth doesn't report the event to Cluny.

Redtooth's death is also slightly different. He dies after entering Redwall from a siege tower when Cornflower Fieldmouse throws boiling soup and hits him on the head with the empty soup cauldron, knocking him off the Abbey's ramparts and causing him to hit his head on the ground below.
