Description

 

This abomination is a massive rat that usually dwells in sewer systems, making it rarely seen on the surface, giving locals in small towns stories to tell to children. Unlike other rats, it can take a beating and is terrifying to look at. This rat looks like a stereotypical zombie rat, with white, bloodshot eyes and flesh, torn to the point of exposing the bone.
