An unnamed Fable duck lives at the Farm in upstate New York. It first appears in Fables #7 — "The Guns of Fabletown: Part Two of Animal Farm."

History

Goldilocks' revolution

The duck is one of the Fables who aligns with Goldilocks' rebels in their scheme to overthrow the human residents of Fabletown.[2] It finds itself watching as Posey shows a potential recruit, Rose Red, all the weapons they have acquired. Later that evening, it is stationed outside the main building with the playing cards and a selection of animal Fables, patiently waiting for Rose to come out and join them.[3]

The duck is present when Rose Red arms herself in a cave[2] and watches[4] as she apprehends[2] her sister Snow White in the same cave shortly after.[4]

The duck stands among the many animal Fables gathered in the Farm square as Dun speaks to the crowd, announcing that the time has come to make a move on Fabletown in New York City. Unexpectedly, Snow White emerges and declares that their self-proclaimed revolution has come to an end and commands all individuals to relinquish their firearms and disperse. She quickly compels the surrender of the group through the intimidation of the three giant brothers, and the dragon Clara.[4]

Following the unsuccessful revolution, Fabletown conducts war trials. The duck is observed waiting in line to have its case assessed. When Dun and Posey, two of the revolution's ringleaders, are beheaded for their involvement in the failed coup, the duck stands on the sidelines, watching the grim scene unfold.[5]

Invasion of the wooden soldiers

The duck,[6] along with numerous other Farm Fables, is enlisted to journey to New York City and join the defense of Fabletown when the wooden soldiers plot an attack on the secret Fable society.[7] The bird makes it through the battle and witnesses Bigby Wolf's timely arrival at the conclusion, which shifts the balance of the battle.[6]

Personality and traits

The duck is known to have a penchant for discussing the works of Jane Austen.[1]
