Killconey

A ferret from Mossflower Woods, Killconey joined the horde of Cluny the Scourge when Cluny attacked Redwall Abbey. He was an extremely talkative ferret with a comical accent (probably Irish) and a tendency to refer to his "ould" mother's sayings. But he wasn't a fool. In fact, he turned out to be very useful for Cluny in several schemes. For one thing, Killconey was an expert tunneler and, with the help of a crew of weasels, stoats, and ferrets, built Cluny a tunnel to get into Redwall from the southwestern side (although this scheme was discovered and routed). Also, he had some knowledge of leverage, and built Cluny a siege tower to get into Redwall from the back wall. Eventually, when Redwall was captured, Matthias led an attack to reclaim it. Killconey was killed in the battle by Matthias.
