Mechanics
Each time you take damage, you may summon a rat, randomly chosen between a river rat and hell rat. The odds of summoning are equal to the proportion of your maximum health that was lost, capped at 50%.
Desirability
The ratskin cloak[1] is a cloak of middling usefulness. The minor penalties to strength and intelligence can usually be ignored, but so can the rank of negative energy resistance. It has a decent enchantment, at least, and the poison resistance can be quite handy.
The cloak's main draw is the chance to create allies in dangerous situations. Hell rats can be surprisingly deadly, and even river rats can be useful for covering an escape.
