Pack_of_Rats
In the old abandoned buildings, in the edge of the woods, in the dark city alleys after dark, and in many other places one may run across them. To most they are shadows moving through the night, gone in the blink of an eye. Or they might be faintly heard scurrying about in an otherwise silent night. Their ancestors and elders are outcasts from society and now they are a society all their own, scavengers, thieves, and hunters who live in the shadows. At times they roam alone, at times in small groups, but they are always out there somewhere.
They are usually only 4-5' tall ( around 1.2 to 1.5 meters ) and black furred, nude, with lithe bodies, however they do breed quickly enough that there are plenty in their pack and thus a great many individuals that stand out. Some are of different coloration or size, some wear clothes or trinkets, and each has their own individual quirks. They are not all cruel and vicious, but for the most part they do whatever they have to in order to survive.
The pack of rats is available for either scenes involving one-on-one interaction or multiple character scenarios. These scenes may range from simple interaction to combat to sex and vore. There is a virtual army of them living in the massive city and park so there will always be more, and they do have access to reforming magic so the slain will eventually return, but it is an uncomfortable and slow procedure that is far from foolproof so most are very reluctant to die.
Individual Rats: Below is a list of individuals that stand out in their society. Suggestions are always welcomed for more rats, and they may be created specifically to fit a certain RP. If an individual rat is not available for canon play then they are still available for play, it will just be a non-canon scene.
Rex: An elder amongst the rats said to dabble in magics learned from scavenged magical tomes. His black fur has dark red highlights and he is said to be demon possessed. He supplies the pack with magical items and potions as well as sage, if cryptic, guidance. He is their leader in as much as they actually have a leader and always values survival and unity above all else, while warning his pack that other peoples are "dangerous" and "not to be trusted." Often the pack itself will be referred to by outsiders as "Rex's pack."
Ray: Physically weaker than most of the other rats, he makes up for it with his brilliant mind and knowledge of science and mechanics. He's regarded as something of a mad scientist and a few of the pack have actually died aiding him as test subjects - yet the pack prospers from his work, so this has gone by unopposed for some time now. He cares only for his work and has little regard for anyone or anything else. While he's not very likely to eat someone, there's always the chance that he could end up as prey, or that something he created or is studying might need sustenance.
Shell: Another with the title of head healer, though she does not possess the same sort of innate magical talent that her predecessor had and has to resort to mundane methods. She's a medium sized plump white furred rat in good health, generally very cheerful and affectionate. She has a small collection of shells from various animals in her room, set up on a rickety wooden shelf. Her most valuable piece in that collection is not a shell though, but rather a scale shed from a dragon was kind enough to let her keep it.
Hebi: A large black furred rat-snake hybrid who lives quite comfortably through loot, food, and slaves gained from his well organized and efficient raiding parties against the city. He likes to keep a few of the more powerful rats loyal to him through bribing them with live meals. His snake half shows mainly through his tail... it's thick and longer than the rest of his body, easily able to capture and crush creatures his own size. He's pretty massive himself, 10 feet tall with a big round gut.
Soda: A middle aged rat female with dark black fur and a usually happy disposition. She's a former scavenger and thief, often having lead crews of other rats to raid warehouses, convenience stores, food stands, and other such establishments for food or usable goods... she's a bit plump as she had a habit of taking a cut off the top of her plunder before sharing it. A meeting with a kind and noble man caused her to reconsider her ways... since she has much experience with the "civilized" world she's actually looking for a legitimate job now. Her soul is in the care of SilverLining who she must visit once a month, else her current body dies.
Candle: A stocky male rat of a little under five feet tall with white fur that has scattered specks of grey and black. He's one of the pack's explorers, often heading out into far away lands to look for resources or even places to set up new colonies. He's a bit older than middle aged and a gentle sort of fellow, not very fond of some of the pack's shadier activities even though he recognizes their necessity. He's currently being held captive by GaleTempest.
Nail: A young male rat that's taller than the usual for his kind, reaching six feet tall with a slender build and grey fur that's a shade lighter on his chest and belly. He's bitter towards more civilized furs, jealous of their comparably easy and luxurious lives, and seldom talks to any of them if he can help it. He's an adult but not quite specialized enough to have a real profession yet, so he just helps out the pack with odd jobs and tasks here and there.
Fuse: An anthropomorphic female Mouser from Subcon ( the land of dreams explored in Super Mario Brothers 2 for the NES ). Like many beings in the Nexus Park she simply happened to find her way through a portal and ended up in this reality, where she was quickly adopted by the pack of rats. She uses her explosives expertise to help the pack dig out tunnels. She is a bit impulsive and seeks only to have fun. She is a curvy female rodent with soft grey fur that wears nothing but shoes, gloves, and shades. Fuse is stocky, four feet tall and her boots and shades are a bright red.
Fool's Gold: Also known as FG for short, this young male rat has just recently come into adulthood. Not quite as strong or tough as the other adults in the pack, he's forced to find other talents to be of use. He's learned to identify rare minerals and sifts through the debris cleared out from the pack's tunnels to find things worth keeping or sharing. He's introverted to a degree and tries to avoid much social contact. His fur is short and neat, a base of black with speckles of golden yellow across his front and inner thighs.
Other players are welcome to make and play characters that are a part of this pack, or to become allies of the pack and live with them in their nest. If you wish, send me a pub with the profile name and I'll link it here.
Ghastly_Haunter is the pack's "pet ghost" and might be found haunting their tunnels from time to time.
Lexthegasdragon sometimes demands sacrifices from the pack, and has claimed the life of one old guard named Riptooth so far.
