Huge brown-furred rats of average intelligence, brown ratkin are capable of controlling normal giant rats. Their front paws can be used to grasp and manipulate objects, including small weapons such as daggers. They can also bite and any individual bitten by a brown ratkin has a 5% chance per bite of contracting a severe disease if a saving throw versus poison is unsuccessful.

Brown ratkin are size small creatures, up to four feet from nose to tip of tail. They are voracious in appetite and will consume any available food source, be it grain, vegetable, meat, or carrion. They prefer fresh meat and can be aggressive. Their royalty are unusual in terms of size, strength, and intelligence, and often have unusual mutations.
