Urthwyte the Mighty, was a male Badger Ruler of Salamandastron and the successor of his late twin brother Urthstripe. He was also the grandson of Loambudd and Urthclaw, and the son of Urthound and Urthrun. Urthwyte was an albino badger, covered in snowy-white fur and missing the characteristic black stripes. His primary weapon was a large oaken war club. Like his brother, he was born in the autumn in the Southwest Lands and went on to be orphaned by the weasel Ferahgo the Assassin, who murdered his parents after promising to speak reasonably with them.
