'''Jum Gurdy''' was an overweight, aging male otter [[The Cellar|Cellar Keeper]] of [[Redwall Abbey]]. He was the brother of [[Dorka Gurdy]], nephew of [[Wullow]], and a relative of [[Skor Axehound]].

After [[Uggo Wiltud]] had a dream of [[Razzid Wearat]] and the [[Razzid's Crew|crew]] of the ''[[Greenshroud]]'' attacking Redwall, he and Jum departed the Abbey to find Wullow, who reportedly knew about Wearats. Jum later helped Uggo and another hedgehog, [[Posybud]], escape from [[Snaggs]] and his [[Snaggs' Gang|gang]]. Jum, Uggo, and Posy were separated while out on the sea. Jum met up with [[Skor Axehound]]'s [[Rogue Crew]] and the [[Long Patrol]], who informed him of the discovery of Wullow's body, after he had been tortured and (it was implied) burned to death by Razzid. Jum swore to avenge him, and accompanied them in their journey to warn the Abbey residents of Razzid.

Later, the band encountered the aftermath of a bloody confrontation between the [[Guerilla Union of Shrews in Mossflower|Guosim]] and Razzid's crew members. Some of the band, aided by the [[Fortunate Freepaws]], stayed behind to help heal the wounded. Jum was one of these medics, but as soon as he was able to get away, he hurried to Redwall in pursuit of Razzid. He arrived just in time to see Razzid in the middle of a [[Battle for Redwall (The Rogue Crew)|confrontation]] with Posy and Uggo. The female hedgehog stabbed Razzid with the [[Sword of Martin]], but the Wearat refused to stop attacking even though he was wounded. Jum sneaked up behind Razzid and slammed his head with a large stick, crushing his skull and killing him, avenging Wullow's murder. Jum then took possession of the Sword of Martin from Posy and used it to help drive off the rest of the vermin. Afterwards, Razzid's ship ''Greenshroud'' was renamed the ''Posy Gurdy'' in his and Posy's honor, for slaying Razzid between them.

=== Trivia ===
* Jum Gurdy is one of only three otters (the other two being [[Deyna]] and [[Bragoon]]) to have used the Sword of Martin in combat.
