!!Oswald Chitter
A sickly albino who nonetheless is very heroic. Though a runt, he is taller than the other mice and is apt to stoop. Due to his size, on one occasion he was mistaken for a young rat.

* HeroicAlbino: This is definitely Oswald!
* [[IllGirl Ill Boy]]: At the beginning of ''The Crystal Prison'', he is sick in bed and nearly dies, but is saved by the Starwife's magic.
* UnlikelyHero: You wouldn't think a frail albino runt would be capable of acts of bravery, but there you'd be wrong.

!!William "Twit" Scuttle
The cousin of Oswald Chitter who lives in the country, he is the result of the union of a house mouse and a field mouse. He is thought of as having "no cheese upstairs" (in other words, as a simpleton), but there is much more to him than that. Several times he has proven his intelligence and bravery.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: You do not want to provoke him!

* BreakTheCutie: Throughout the books, among other things, Audrey's father is violently murdered (she refuses to believe he is dead at first, but gradually comes to accept it), she is accused of being a witch and almost hanged (with the only way to save her being marriage to a friend who is not her true love), Piccadilly the boy mouse she is in love with is murdered before she can confess her feelings to him, she is attacked by multiple brainwashed and violent ghosts of those she knew in life (including Piccadilly, but she is able to jog his memory and tell him she loves him; though of course it is too late to do anything about it and she witnesses his crossing over to the other side), she is forced to face the Big Bad Jupiter head-on multiple times, and she is tricked into becoming the (at least initially) unwilling successor of a monarch known as the Starwife. At the end she is left as a weary, melancholy shadow of her former self. She is described as having 'learned many things' and she 'no longer wears lace and ribbons'.
