Brantalis Skyfurrow was a male barnacle goose of the Skyfurrow skein. He was probably related to Olav Skyfurrow. Brantalis had a peculiar way of speaking, often prefacing his speech with "I am thinking...". After Brantalis was shot with an arrow from one of Riggu Felis' catguards at Green Isle, Leatho Shellhound treated the wound, and helped Brantalis to escape the cats. Later on, Brantalis became the "Queen's Courier" for Tiria, and the "Official Messenger to Redwall Abbey", delivering messages to and from Abbess Lycian.
