Horror is measured not in quantity, but quality. A swarm is just a single entity, a mind with a hundred limbs. Sardha Raveswaram The wererat packs that slink through the sewers of Richemulot are all the more dangerous for their cunning, cooperative tactics. Few who walk through the streets above, however, suspect that a malign intelligence guides the activities of these monstrous hordes. Deep in the labyrinthine tunnels, where no light ever penetrates, lurk the masters of the wererats, the rat kings. In chambers clogged with centuries of filth, these powerful lycanthropes plot their dominance of the surface world. The human and beast aspects of a rat king resemble those of a common wererat. Indeed, much to the frustration of hunters, the rat king has an almost deliberately mundane appearance as both a human and a giant rat. When the rat king assumes its hybrid aspect, however, the horrid difference between the creature and a typical wererat becomes readily apparent. The hybrid aspect resembles an enormous, bloated rat, nearly the size of a bear, with subtle anthropomorphic features. Its relatively small limbs seem inadequate to move its massive bulk, but the creature is surprising fast and agile even in hybrid aspect. In human aspect, a rat king is capable of speaking human tongues. However, some have been isolated from human social contact for so long that they devolve, forgetting how to communicate properly. Like most lycanthropes, the rat king can speak with animals of its phenotype while in beast or hybrid aspect. At all times, a rat king is accompanied by 4d6 normal rats and 1d10 giant rats, which will obey the creature’s every command. |
