<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The weasel [[Burrad]] was the leader of a '''band''' of 13 mixed vermin (five weasels, a ferret, two rats, two stoats, two foxes). The band was originally led by Burrad's father; when he died Burrad took command. They came from the [[Northlands]]. <br />

===Leaders===<br />
Burrad's Band had a number of leaders.<br />
<br />
*'''Burrad''' the weasel was enormously fat, and a bully. His time in charge lasted only briefly before he was killed accidentally by Skrodd the fox.<br />
<br />
*'''Skrodd''' was Burrad's fox warrior and the second-in-command. When he accidentally killed Burrad, he proclaimed himself leader. He decided to move the band south towards [[Redwall Abbey]], much to the dismay of the others. He was assassinated.<br />
<br />
*The bulky rat '''Dargle''' was leader of the group for a few moments. He impaled Skrodd, but the fox used his last breath to chop off the murderer's head.<br />
<br />
*The fox with the longest rule of any leader, '''Badredd''' started out as Skrodd's bodyguard, but he fell asleep. When he awakened, he found Skrodd and Dargle dead. He proclaimed himself leader and continued to march on Redwall Abbey, much to the dismay of Flinky and the others. He later chopped off Slipback's tail to prove himself.<br />
<br />
Flinky and Slipback tried to assassinate Badredd for this while he was asleep, but the attempt failed. When they arrived at Redwall later that day, Badredd began mouthing on about how he was in charge of a horde and how their Abbey would fall if they didn't give him their "magic [[The Sword of Martin|sword]]." The Redwallers refused, and an attack began.<br />
<br />
Halfchop was wounded, but Rogg and Floggo killed [[Junty]] Cellarhog, a Redwaller. Soon afterwards they opened a wallgate and entered the grounds. Badredd's band fired stones through the windows. After a few days, Badredd realized he needed more recruits so he sent Flinky and Crinktail out.<br />
<br />
They brought back the sea rat [[Raga Bol]] and his [[Raga Bol's crew|crew]], who promptly threw the band under lock and key, and took over besieging the Abbey. Bol forced Badredd to become his personal slave.<br />
<br />
Thanks to '''Flinky''', who led the [[Glimbo|guard]] off on false pretenses, the band escaped. Flinky took over leadership as a result of Badredd's unpopularity. He took the group south and they were never seen at Redwall Abbey again. They presumably lived a peaceful life afterwards.<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*One member of the group is never named, and it is possible that [[Brian Jacques]] may have forgot that he was writing about a 13-member band rather than a 12-member band, or, when [[Bragoon]] and [[Sarobando]] first encountered them, Bragoon counted 12, while Saro counted 13. Bragoon could have been right, and not Saro.<br />
