Blaggut

Blaggut was a protagonist in the Redwall book The Bellmaker. He was unique in that he was one of the only good vermin in the entire series. Although he began as a villain, he made a distinction of rejecting his destiny as a vermin, and became the first to have a complete redemption. 
== Biography ==
Blaggut was the corsair bosun of the Pearl Queen ship. A sea rat by nature, him and his captain, Slipp, were both fairly popular amongst the crew. Slipp, however, hated Blaggut, and he hated honest creatures, much to Blaggut's chagrin. 
When Rwdwallers stole the Pearl Queen to sail to Southsward in order to free it from the Foxwolf, Slipp was marooned in Mossflower. He found Blaggut, and together set off into the forest, even though Slipp was cruel to Blaggut and berated him constantly. 
Eventually, the pair got lost. Finding some infant Dibbuns, the pair quickly convinced the two to take them to Redwall. Blaggut, however, did this out of pure friendliness to the young ones, whereas Slipp desired to steal their treasure. Slipp even got caught out beating Blaggut. 
At the Abbey, they got accepted after awhile. However, Brother Simenon did not trust Slipp. So he disguised himself as a ghost in order to spy on them and frighten Slipp off the hunt. When the rats did find the treasure Slipp got angry to find it was merely children's playthings. So, he actually killed the badger mother, Mellus, and fled with Blaggut into the woods. 
Blaggut wailed with grief all night, wanting to return to the Abbey. When Slipp was xruel to him again, poor Blaggut could not take it any more, so he strangled his captain to death, apologising and saying it was to keep others safe. 
Blaggut made his way back to the Abbey, and apologised. He took back the stolen treasure. He even asked the Rwdwallers to kill him, but they eventually refused. 
He redeemed himself and lived a happy life in the woods. He even became a visitor to the Abbey, reporting on the return of their friends aboard his old ship.
