Useful Info

Rats are one of the earliest and least powerful opponents in the game. They have average speed and are almost harmless, though some of their later relatives are much more aggressive. They can be found on any floor of the Dungeon, and provide a reliable source of edible chunks.

Tips & Tricks

Rat vaults may occur in some games, and usually contain a wealth of cheese.
You can summon your own rats through use of the Summon Small Mammals spell.
