Kurda Smahlt
Kurda Smahlt was a vampire general who was met in the fourth book. In the trials of death, he killed Gavner Purl and sent the Vampaneze to get Darren. In the Vampire Prince, he said he was trying to bring peace between the two clans. He brought a group of vampaneze to Vampire Mountain, and Darren believed he was trying to give them the Stone of Blood once he became a Prince. He was actually using those vampaneze to try to unite the two clans. The Vampaneze he brought actually agreed that killing was wrong. He was going to become a Vampire Prince until Darren came and said he was a traitor. He was later dropped on to stakes in the Hall of Death. In the second book, Harkat was introduced as Lefty because he had a limp in his left leg. In Vampire Mountain, he reveals his real name, and the fact that he can speak. He went out of his way to protect Darren. In The Lake of Souls it was found that Harkat used to be Kurda Smahlt and was said by Mr. Tiny. Mr. Tiny created Harkat from the remains of Kurda, and sent him back to the past, so that Darren wouldn't die in his fight with the bear while traveling to Vampire Mountain, or the two boars in his Trials of Initiation. The name Harkat Mulds is actually an anagram of the name Kurda Smahlt shown by the teeth of the panther, as revealed in The Lake of Souls. Also in the Lake of Souls Harkat had three identical scars just like Kurda. source: wikipedia
