Choose Your Own Mouse-Venture

One of the most appealing qualities of the Mouse Guard comic is the level of detail author David Petersen gives his medieval mouse society. The lush and intricate world of the Guard is a perfect setting for adventuring, and a board game and RPG are already in the works. Petersen recently posted one of his sketching exercises for different playable mice characters on his website - each one of these little guys is packed with character, and seeing them all together in one page is a bit overwhelming. After the jump I've picked out a select few, in an attempt to guess which caste they might fit into...


Mouse in Shining Armor


Cartographer Mouse


Chef Mouse

Fashion Forward Mouse


Emperor's Royal Guard Mouse



Rice Paddy Mouse


Pan Mouse


Falstaff Mouse

Archbishop Mouse with Alter Bee
