Dibbuns Against Bedtime
Dibbuns Against Bedtime (also known as the D.A.B.) was a secret club created by Dibbuns of Redwall Abbey. Based on the eponymous website, Brian Jacques decided to first immortalize them in Triss after receiving a fan letter from site administrator Gonfflet. Jacques brought the rambunctious crew back in Doomwyte, The Sable Quean, and The Rogue Crew, for a total of four appearances in Redwall novels. The group made their first consecutive appearance in The Sable Quean and their second consecutive appearance in The Rogue Crew.
Triss[]
The DAB's greatest misdeed was the assault on the Kitchens, in which they caused a huge mess and locked the kitchen doors so no one could enter. As punishment, they were put on Abbot's Report, a very serious matter.
They successfully evaded bedtime, dirtied up the Friar, and kept themselves in there for an extended period of time.

Doomwyte[]
The DAB's role was quite minor, and their brief appearance consisted of a choir of enthusiastic (but out of tune) singing Dibbuns which included a section of mole bass singers.
The Sable Quean[]
After Guffy and Tassy were kidnapped by Ravagers, the DAB was mentioned by Granvy Shtuckle as playing near the Gatehouse, and that they might be worth interrogating.
The Rogue Crew[]
After the arrival of Razzid Wearat near Redwall, Dibbuns excited by the vermin ship refused to go to sleep, and began a 'DAB' chant in protest.
