| HAMLET [Drawing his sword.]: How now! a rat? Dead, for a ducat, dead [Stabs through the arras.] -William Shakespeare, _The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark_, III, 4. 1603. |
The majority of the rats you'll encounter are weak, insignificant creatures that do little more than rush you harmlessly and get slaughtered in droves. However, some of the rats you'll encounter have been affected by the strange magic of the Dungeon, and have dangerous powers worth watching out for. They can be found in nearly every early branch of the game.
