Slashtail

Slashtail is a female ruby-tailed wasp and servant of Wuya the Toxic. She first appears being listed as accounted for by Wuya, then along with Dytiscus, accompanies Wuya to Redwall. Slashtail and Dytiscus stayed outside while Wuya went in alone, but later Wuya reemerges and confirms they shall fight Redwall, then all three return to Moledeep. The next day, after Wuya decimated the guosim, she began looking over possible recruits, and Slashtail helped. 
Later in the day, she joins in the second attack on Redwall, where she Spikehand and Goldback try to secure climbing ropes while the abbey was distracted, but they were found out sooner than anticipated and Slashtail got shot (though survives) by Nomi the archer mole, and were ultimately thwarted when Wuya was knocked down to the ground. When night came, Slashtail went to spy in the abbey and captures Darovit. The next night, she again spies on Redwall, this time with Bigjaw and overhear the woodlanders plan an assassination on Wuya. Upon returning to Moledeep, the duo catch Tubemouth conspiring to replace Wuya, and they notify her. Wuya chose to use both to her advantage, even sending Slashtail with the request that Tubemouth puts on Wuya's clothes. In the end Wuya's plan to trick the woodlanders and remove Tubemouth was successful.
The next day, Wuya was able to bribe Darovit into betraying Redwall, and near dawn tomorrow, the horde set off: Slashtail picked the lock of the gatehouse and with Bigjaw and Goldback capture the gatekeeper Erah Grang and her two children Alzbeta Grang and Ganner Grang, and Darovit kept his word as he opened the backdoor for the horde and they certainly took over. While Wuya engages Kav Furrel in a dual, Darovit sided back with Redwall and freed the prisoners. Slashtail was the first to notice and gets attacked by Volkner Streamdog, yet manages to defeat him, but was killed by Nomi before she can finish the otter.
