sewer rats

these rat girls live in the sewers, one of two ways into the swamps from the city. it's generally regarded as safer and quicker to go through the sewers, but you do run the risk of having to deal with the rats, who are best described as a sort of giant lesbian polycule with obnoxious accents.

as a whole, the rat girls are the most similar to the city people out of any of the swamp denizens; they're pretty tapped into how city life works, even if they aren't that impressed with it. they have their own kind of economy and way of life down here and they don't find it very cute to be interrupted. that said they love to learn gossip about the outside world, and they're fairly personable once you get them to relax a little about how you just trudged into their friggin house and you're all covered in muck, Jesus, look at you, like you never bathed a damn day in your life.

they pose literally 0 danger if you're not wounded by being called petty names.
