She’s bald!

And she’s torturing people who have hair!!

Her name is Meeka Swiftblade and I’ve had her for like… FOREVER. She’s the little sister of Princess Kurda from “Triss” but I’m currently rewriting her to put her in a original story since honestly the story I had for her all those years ago really didn’t need to be set in the Redwall universe lol

Does thresher have ANY redeeming qualities or is he just a cartoon villain?

I don’t consider him a cartoon villain, but I don’t think that means he has redemptive qualities either.

He loves his family and he wants to protect The Family from starvation, these are his best traits, these things do not redeem him.

He is cruel, but his cruelty is not his motivation. He is using the Daisys as his scapegoat for the famine he helped contribute to. He’s not drowning kittens for the fun of it, he is trying to balance his contributions to the problem.

Thresher is full of self loathing for his actions, we see his thoughts about it multiple times. But he is selfish, and he will do evil things without blinking if it means the famine won’t wipe out The Family.

I dont think he started at 100% at hating the Daisys. I think once he realized he could scapegoat them he leaned progressively harder and harder into calling them heretics and taking out his frustrations on them. He needs everyone else to see them as the problem to justify himself, and I think he’s been doing this so dutifully that he has convinced himself of their wickedness.

His actions have been ramping up from his first chapter. His home is dying. He knows he largely contributed. And he can’t fix it. So he does the easiest thing; he blames a group of cats who don’t really have the means to defend themselves from his vitriol. He takes his frustrations out on cats he can win against. He tries to manipulate other cats into seeing them as the problem.

I also think evil can often just look cartoonish from the outside, and thresher does not have super relatable problems. But people with power often use it to be unfathomably cruel, especially if they have something to gain by doing so.
