Princess Kurda

Princess Kurda was the ruthless daughter of King Agarnu and the younger sister of Prince Bladd. She and her family of "Pure" ferrets rule Riftgaurd. She was an expert swordbeast who used Triss to assist in her practices. After Triss and her friends escape Riftgaurd, Kurda goes after them with Captain Plugg Firetail aboard the Seascab. When she reaches Mossflower and sees Redwall Abbey, she wishes to take it for herself. She fails at every attempt. When Kurda finally meets Triss face to face in a dual, she loses her nerve and is unable to fight properly against the warrior squirrel. In the fight, Triss breaks her sabre in half. She attempts to run away, with Triss going after her to finish her off, but Kurda trips and ends up falling right on her broken sword.
