Red is a recurring but minor character of the TV series. He is a red colored Efrafan buck who worked for General Woundwort. His partners are Vervain, Campion, Moss, Gorse, Thistle and presumably Shale, as presumed by fans who believe that the greyish blueish Efrafan appearing in seasons 1 and 2 is a prototype version of Shale.
Personality[]
Red is a silent and loyal buck, despite being silent, some of his personality can be shown. He is shown to respect Vervain, Campion and any other captain of a mark.
