Russa Nodrey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Russa Nodrey is an anthropomorphic squirrel in the book The Long Patrol from the Redwall series by Brian Jacques.

Russa was given the surname "Nodrey" due to her lack of a drey, or home, because no one could agree or knew where she was from. She was a wandering female squirrel warrior who carried a powerful hardwood stick as a weapon. It was later inherited by Russano the Wise, whom Russa saves from a party of vermin when he is a badger babe at the cost of her life.
