Dryditch Fever was a deadly illness that would make one weak and confined to a bed; it gave its victims hot flashes, chills, and dizziness, eventually leading to death. The cure is the Flowers of Icetor, boiled in spring water.

When this disease arrived around during the time of Abbess Vale, the first known creature afflicted with it was Thura, a former stoat of Ferahgo the Assassin who stole the sword of Martin the Warrior with his friend Dingeye. He died shortly afterward. The disease spread to Redwall Abbey, where many residents began to get ill, and a few unfortunately died before the cure was brought back from the Northlands by Thrugg, Dumble, and the Wild King MacPhearsome.

The only Abbeybeasts not to be afflicted with Dryditch Fever in the end were Thrugann, Tudd Spinney, and Faith Spinney.
