Squire Julian Gingivere

"I never wanted it. Squire of what? The title is hereditary"

- Squire Julian about his ancestry

Squire Julian Gingivere is a cat and one of the heroes in the book Redwall. He is one of the fighters against Cluny. Squire Julian was an outcast, descended from the first Gingivere, who lived at the time of Martin. Squire Julian met Matthias by pure accident when Guosim sent him to meet the owl Captain Snow but met Squire Julian instead. Julian explained how he used to be friends with the owl but his eating habits were disgusting so he turned him out of the barn, only welcoming him back if he apologized. Squire Julian was depressed when Matthias met him, and only ate fish and no other animals. Squire Julian apologized for Captain Snow not being there, so he directed Matthias to the wood, but told him to be wary. Squire Julian told Matthias to tell the shrews that he wouldn't hurt them and could use his barn as long as they were quiet. Squire Julian later became friends again with Captain Snow when the adder Asmodeus was killed and Matthias consoled them both. Squire Julian himself apologized to the owl. He then joined in the fight at Redwall and killed the rest of Cluny's horde.
