Hedwig

Hedwig is a female hedgehog and wife of Erinaceus Quill in Parus Rides Again. She first appears spending time with her husband and daughter Jori Quill when Botaurus the great bittern arrives. Laster that evening, she was keeping Jori busy with Brother Esuom's help, all the while watching Kav Furrel and his father Jala Furrel fishing. She was present during the party and when Redwall's old enemy Parus the Manipulator shows up, she knocks everyone, Hedwig included, out before kidnapping Freja Furrel, Zonder Banksnout and Ganner Grang while killing Telma Furrel and Vakama Foeseeker. She was the second to awake after Kav, and quickly helps wake up everyone else, then came to Jori's aid when she and Erin heard her crying, and were briefly horrified to see blood around her and on her hands, but realized it wasn't her own. The next morning, Hedwig encourages her husband to join the hunt for Parus, which reluctantly does. She later helps search for the missing dibbuns Algot Muskar, Zootoca and Gjord, which wasn't successful. 
She isn't seen again for a while, but one night she checks on Jala and Nomi, lamenting that Jori was missing Erin. In the morning, she let Esuom and Erah Grang babysit Jori while Hedwig herself took Vakama's job, momentarily stopping to check on the trio. The next day, she and Jori watch Nomi practice archery, but but both mothers and Erah admit to getting a feeling something big was happening. Sometime later, her husband and his friends return successful and happily reunites with Hedwig and their daughter. Several days later, she got to see the between Poove and Alzbeta Grang.
