I just realized something...There are slim to no Badger characters out there that I know of....Any particular reason that I'm missing for why?
Because I was thinking on making a little character of me own, and I was thinking of the animal populace amongst the society as I know it and I came to a dead silence when I arrived to Badger.
The curiosity is killing me!~~~~

Mushroom! Mushroom!

Well not exactly what I was thinking, but I ment more of like Quentyn or astral, or solidus, or Yuoofox, and prety much everyone else here.

Check any artwork by anyone who has read a few Redwall books...
Now, you want a creature that hasn't had a lot of press, try a muskrat or a spider monkey.

There are probably more hybrid porcuskunks out there than spider monkeys.

You've never read Redwall, have you?

Well thats probably one of the reasons why I'm thinking badger, because I have read a *ahem* few red wall books...not like I own the seires or anything *thumb twidling*
But again I'm thinking more of the online community. Oh yeah any links to some redwall fan's art pages perhaps?

Fistly of all, I'd like to appologise for DOUBLE POSTING!~
But I had to tell someone about this, my second Good Song has been uploaded and can be heard, no dl's yet. Still waiting for the next 8 to appear in me mind. You can hear it here http://www.myspace.com/myspacea3r0

Let this be a warning kids to the dangers of drugs.

I own the entire Redwall series. Read it. Still read it.

Proud of it!

Awesome~, I should have put *Sarcastic thumb twidling*

Yeah, Redwall is really something.
It's gotten to the point where everytime I hear the word 'badger,' I think "Eulalia." And, unfortunately, "mushroom."

Also, if anyone was reading the Watership Down thread, I think badgers appear there as well. They're called "lendri," I think?

Perhaps I'll check that out later, but seems the only source of badger art is either a flash vid, some time of searching for an artist, or my redwall series(which I"m probably going to go look through).

they did a couple of animated redwall episodes didnt they? ... wait .. is that the series that you're talking about?

A few come to mind, most especially

Looking around, there's also Caernath, a character in an online RPG:

Ia dmit, however: That seems to be about it. There are a few more on FurryMUCK, perhaps, but not much more than a few.

Yours truly,

The ever-searching,

I do believe so... I'll also check that out aswell. Thanks for the Reminder BlasTech. I remember watching that back when I was in junior high I believe it was. Hah, the good ol' days...Those days'r gonna seem a whole lot better when I"m out in the world.
EEK, Costumes~...I'm sorry but costumes are a bit to much for me.... Find that a little creepy..
Hmmm Caernath has an interesting style, not quite the style I was thinking of but it does help in my thought process. Thanks Wanderwolf

Wind In The Willows has a badger. I love that story.

I can think of a few off the top of my head... lets see if I can link a few:

A book series about another Bill Badger:

I saw it on albino black sheep, I think.

I was going gring up Carried by the Wind also with the raccoon-Badger-Bengal Tiger hybrid as the leading character.

I have read the Redwall books and have 1major complaint - ferrets and weasels are always the bad guys

Ferrets and weasels are noble creatures - it is mice who are the harbingers of plague and disease.

However I can say one thing nice about mice - they are tasty with a little Tabasco sauce.
