[WARNING! THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS FROM THE NOVELS MARTIN THE WARRIOR, MOSSFLOWER, AND THE LEGEND OF LUKE, AS WELL AS UNDYING FRIENDSHIP. READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.]

Martin was born in a cave along the North Shores to Luke the Warrior and Sayna, and named after his paternal grandfather. Sadly, Martin never knew his mother, for their camp was attacked. After Sayna was murdered by Vilu Daskar, Luke gave Martin his sword and sailed off on the Sayna in search of revenge. Martin was then raised by his maternal grandmother, Windred. As a young mouse, Martin was headstrong and even a little rebellious, sometimes resenting that his older friend Timballisto lead the tribe rather than Martin--consequently Martin would often push at Timbal's authority. On one such occasion, Martin traveled needlessly far from the caves and began chopping at driftwood with his father's sword, reasoning that he could not be scolded too harshly for bringing back firewood. Windred came out after him and started to chide him, but a patrol sent by Badrang arrived on the scene. Martin tried to fend them off, but he was struck unconscious and his sword was stolen. He and Windred were chained to a long line of other captured beasts and marched off to be slaves at Fort Marshank. Windred died along the way, effectively leaving Martin an orphan, though Luke's death probably occurred after Martin's capture.

Eventually, he escaped with the help of the mousemaid Laterose "Rose" Voh, her brother Brome, a squirrel Felldoh and their mole friend Grumm Trencher. Laterose, Grumm, and Martin journeyed to Noonvale, Rose's home, and returned with help to fight Badrang. When Badrang saw hope was lost, he dove for a tunnel Grumm had dug, and attacked the mole. Rose tried to distract Badrang and save Grumm's life by jumping on the Tyrant and hitting him with her loaded sling, but he threw her against the far wall, resulting in an instantaneously fatal concussion. When Martin saw this he was overcome by a fierce rage and became unstoppable in his pursuit of Badrang's death. He stabbed the stoat in the heart with his father's sword and took it back from him. Grieving, Martin journeyed south into Mossflower Woods, not able to bring himself to return to Noonvale.

He wandered by chance into the domain of Kotir and Verdauga Greeneyes, where he was arrested by Greeneyes' soldiers for carrying a weapon, which was outlawed by the wildcats. Martin resisted every step of the way as he was dragged into Kotir and brought before a bedridden Verdauga. Verdauga decreed that Martin not be killed, as the law stated, but that he should be thrown in the dungeons for a while. Verdauga's daughter Tsarmina Greeneyes was outraged by the decision and broke Martin's sword, ordering that he wear it about his neck as a mark of shame. Martin was taken away, but he vowed that he would slay Tsarmina. Martin languished in prison for the rest of the winter, but that spring Gonff the Mousethief joined him in jail. They escaped soon afterwards with assistance from the Corim.

He then journeyed to Salamandastron with Dinny and Gonff. On the journey they met Log-a-Log Big Club on the Great South Stream, and his ship Waterwing got the travelers as far as Bat Mountpit. They reached Salamandastron where Boar the Fighter forged Martin a new blade for his father's old hilt. During a battle between Boar the Fighter and his enemy Ripfang, they stole the corsair's ship, Bloodwake and Log-a-Log Big Club navigated it up the River Moss back to Mossflower Woods.

On his return to Mossflower, Martin and the Corim confronted Tsarmina, demanding that she end her reign of tyranny. When she refused, the Corim laid siege to Kotir. As the fortress was flooded and demolished by ballistas, Martin, in full battle armor, sought out Tsarmina as she escaped the flooded and disintegrating stronghold. They battled savagely and without quarter, and Tsarmina struck Martin down twice. Both times, he rose and fought again despite the severe wounds the wildcat inflicted on him. He was eventually able to drive her back into the lake where she drowned, but he collapsed unconscious minutes later, so close to death, that he was talking to the deceased Boar the Fighter at the gates of Dark Forest. He was found by Gonff, Dinny, and Timballisto, who brought him back to Brockhall for healing. However, it took twenty days before Martin regained full consciousness and he was still weak after that. Under the care of Bella and the Loamhedge mice, however, he eventually made a full recovery.

With peace in Mossflower, Martin willingly joined in seeing Abbess Germaine's dreams of an Abbey to reality. Martin proved himself a natural leader in peace as much as war, and was known to be the backbone of the Abbey. When a hedgehog from the Northlands named Trimp arrived one summer and mentioned Luke, Martin journeyed to the North Shores to learn about his father's life.

One night as construction of Redwall continued, however, memories of Rose flooded his mind, and he told Gonff of the events that occurred at Marshank. That same night, Martin was visited by the spirits of Rose and Felldoh, who informed him that a fox named Misteye could have a way to resurrect them. Accompanied by Gonff, they made their way to Misteye's home in the mountains and tried to get information out of him. It wasn't until Misteye saw the pummelstome on Martin's sword and confirmed it to be containing valuable information that he revealed the truth to the group; Martin and his friends were destined to stop an evil warlord who would seek revenge from ruling the world. The group recovered Felldoh and Rose's bodies, only to be pursued by Grumm and Brome, who were allowed to join them.

The group arrived at the Haven, and stayed in the village while Rose and Felldoh's wounds were treated. When the day of the ritual finally arrived, Martin stayed by Rose's side throughout the whole thing. When the spell was cast and Rose finally woke up, the two embraced each other, indescribably happy that they were truly together again.

Character Connections;
Father; Luke the Warrior (spirit)
Mother; Sayna (deceased)
Grandfather; Martin the Elder Warrior (deceased)
Grandmother; Windred (deceased)
Friends; Laterose "Rose" Voh (spirit), Felldoh the Squirrel (spirit), Brome Voh, Gonff the Mousethief, Grumm Trencher, Misteye the Fox, Matthew Redwood, Daniela Oak, Justin Willow, Timballisto (deceased)

Personality; In his youth, Martin was quite headstrong, and there were few who could counter his will. His father, Luke the Warrior, was one of the few who could command Martin, and although Martin agreed to follow Timballisto, he also said that he would lead their tribe someday.

While he was a slave in Fort Marshank he allowed his anger to get the best of him at one point when he saw a weasel savagely beating an old squirrel. Martin attacked the slaver and was nearly killed for it. However, after the liberation of Marshank and the death of Rose (his love in life), Martin became more serious and less prone to reckless action. He was still a fighter born, as he demonstrated when he was arrested by Kotir's Thousand Eye Army and resisted every step of the way.

Martin had a strong sense of right and wrong, and he suffered no injustice when he saw it. He was a steadfast and loyal friend and had a tenacious spirit, never giving up no matter how overwhelming the odds against him were. He was also modest and disliked showing off for the mere sake of it, preferring to use his talents only for battle and reminding other creatures that his sword was only a weapon, and was forged for no other purpose than battle, a lesson imparted to him by Boar the Fighter, forger of the blade. Martin's nature was not limited to goodbeasts, as proven when he tried to comfort a searat who had been slain by gulls.
