Welff Tiptip was a hedgehog wife who lived with her family at the top of a cliff on the North Shores . Her family lived with a family of moles headed by Drunn Tunneller. She was the grandmother of Trimp the Rover. Although a very kind and gentle creature, Welff could be very strong and forceful when the need came. She forced Drunn, Cardo and Vurg to help rescue Luke when the grieving Warrior was about to let himself drown in the sea. Welff and her hedgehogs later helped bring the anchor of Reynard Chopsnout's ship to the shores.
