Mandoral Highpeak
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mandoral Highpeak is a Badger Lord from the Redwall series by Brian Jacques.
Ruler of the moutain of Salamandastron and commander of the Long Patrol, Mandoral lived in the time of Tiria Wildlough, High Rhulain Queen of Green Isle. He met the warrior otter when she came to Salamandastron at the behest of her transportation, a hare from Mandoral's Long Patrol. Mandoral greeted her coridally, and brought her into his stronghold.
Mandoral spoke to Tiria in his inner sanctum, speaking to her of her ancestor, the former Queen. He revealed that she had been a friend of past Badger Lord Urthwyte the Mighty, and how the albino badger had made a new set of regalia for her that she had never come to claim. Mandoral then presented it to Tiria, and sent a band of thirty hares with her to liberate Green Isle.
Mandoral later sent a letter to the current Abbess of Redwall Abbey, another friend of Tiria's. He gave her news that he was in possession of two ships: one which Tiria had travelled in, the other liberated by Mandoral from a band of vermin "not fit to walk its decks." He sent the two ships and their Long Patrol crews up the river to Redwall, where they would take on several Redwallers to visit Green Isle.
Mandoral Highpeak, as a Badger Lord, was a massive and fierce warrior. However, rather like his esteemed predecessors Russano the Wise and Sunflash the Mace, he was a dedicated scholar. His chosen weapon was likely a sword, axe, spear, or club of some kind, typical of most badger warriors.
Mandoral was voiced by Gordon Hall in the full-cast audiobook.
