** The Sword of Martin the Warrior was once an ordinary blade passed down from Luke, Martin's father, to Martin himself. In ''Mossflower'', it was worn down to the point where it was easily broken to the hilt by Tsarmina. A new blade was later to it from ThunderboltIron by [[UltimateBlacksmith Badger Lord Boar the Fighter]] in the land of Salamandastron, becoming the IconicItem throughout the series and wielded by many heroes and allies. After Cluny the Scourge's defeat by one Matthias in ''Redwall'' it was dubbed "Ratdeath"[[note]]Jacques apparently either forgot or decided that wasn't a very good name[[/note]]. However, it is only cool in terms of the material. It is still an regular sword made for battle.

* DramaticSpineInjury: In ''Lord Brocktree'', Brocktree ends the climactic battle by dealing the warlord Ungatt Trunn a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown in front of his army, making him [[VillainsWantMercy beg for mercy]], and then snapping his spine in a KillerBearHug.

*ADogNamedPerro: Brian Jacques often used words from other languages to name his characters, namely Latin. For instance, Mellus and Melesme's names are derived from ''melus'', the Latin word for "badger", while Lutra is the Latin word for "otter". He also (possibly mistakenly) said that Plumpen's name was the Dutch word for "dormouse".
