|
Oswald Chitter is a fictional mouse character who appears in the Deptford Mice Trilogy by Robin Jarvis. He is the son of Jacob and Annabel Chitter, a sickly albino runt. He was born on the 11th of June in the Skirtings and played a large part in the downfall of Jupiter. During The Dark Portal, he is most often seen with Picadilly, the cheeky city mouse. They went in search of Audrey Brown's mousebrass in the Sewers. Oswald's main part in the book is when he disguises himself as a rat to regain the mousebrass. However, he is found out by Finn, a one-eared rat and almost killed. Oswald manages to kill Finn by pushing him onto his own knife. He is knocked into the Sewr Water when he confronts Jupiter. He plays a minor part in The Crystal Prison, where he is dying. However, he is revived by his cousin, William Scuttle and his good friend Audrey Brown with the Starwife's medicine. His importance in The Final Reckoning rivals Audrey's herself. He and Arthur are the ones to discover that the food is gone, but after that he sees to drift out of the story altogether, until the Starwife lights a beacon fire to summon the Bats, Orfeo and Eldritch. Oswald's sensitive eyes spot the Bats in the distance, and he is borne off to the Council of Bats, and placed before the Bat Elders. He collects the Book of Hrethel and bombards Jupiter with the paper, wounding him terribly. However, Oswald doesn't survive the adventure. His parents are given his mousebrass-the sign of utmost bravery.
