In The 100 Acre Wood Prequel Trilogy - Nicodemus is the tritagonist. He befriended Cholena who explores the forest. One day Nicodemus and his large group of rats were captured by Humans and sent to The Labs of Nimh.
With help from Jonathan Brisby - The Rats escaped from Nimh and returned to the forest. Months passed. Nicodemus introduced two of his students Justin and Jenner to Cholena. But one day - Jenner became a very great threat and joins up with Pete to conquer the 100 Acre Wood.
In Winnie the Pooh and the Secret of Nimh - Nicodemus gave Mrs. Brisby a magical Amulet that makes her using her own powers. When the rats decided to move the Brisby family to a safer place away from a Plow - Jenner destroyed Nicodemus by causing the weight of a cinder block to crush him.
