Friar Skurpul was the first mole Kitchen Friar of Redwall Abbey, and the younger brother of Foremole Gullub Gurrpaw. Skurpul was a jolly mole and well liked by all creatures of Redwall, especially Bosie, who loved his cooking. When he was called to help rescue Spingo from becoming buried alive, he gathered the molecrew, acting as depuly foremole as his brother was out questing for one of the Doomwyte Idol's eyes. He and his crew sailed with the Guosim in thier logboats to the hillside (much to their dislike) where Spingo had been buried alive in a tunnel collapse. Shortly after digging a tunnel to get to the buried Spingo, Skurpul made a quick decision that saved Spingo and was buried alive. Part of the caverns below collapsed resulting with him and part of his crew hanging on the ropes that were intended to get them out of their tunnel. Unfortunately, he and three other moles fell to their deaths, unable to hold on to the rope.
He also helped in the search for the "Friar's Grace," a tray from the days of Goodwife Stickle which held a clue to one of the locations of the Doomwtye Idol's eyes.
