Character · from book 5
Holger
The were-castor with the mullet ('a sign of my dominance') and a sickle sword, who says the kindest thing anyone has said about Donut's singing ('You need lessons'), claims he can sense a spell being cast, has never heard the word beaver, and weeps for Clint and Miss Nadine 'like my mama died.' Back in his humanoid form and beaming when Carl and Donut reach the stairwell town.
