Rat

❝Quote❞ - to TBA

Rat, known originally as Dante, is a skinny, boney grey italian greyhound with golden eyes and a ring of rat bites around his neck. He is a conman and is generally a pain to be around, as he goes out of his way to cause problems. He is currently deceased, having been klled by Nox in the first battle with The Glowy Collars.

Persona Rat carries a strong conman vibe to him, he often likes to play tricks and scam other dogs out of food or something that he wants. His personality is certainly a gamble, he has the ability to put on a charismatic front when he needs to but is generally unpleasant otherwise. He likes to mess with other dogs and get on their nerves for fun, mostly because he constantly has nothing better to do. It's not like he's a high ranking official in his pack and has responsibility or anything. Speaking of which, Rat views the other scavengers as family, although he'd never admit it.

Physical Rat is a slim, smaller than average italian greyhound with a boney frame and ragged short grey fur. His body is littered with nicks and cuts here and there, but most noticeable of all he has a ring of small bite marks around his neck. One of his ears involuntarily flops over, and his snout is rather pointed. He often carries either a crooked smile on his face or a look of neutral detachment, its really 50/50. He can also sometimes be spotted with a torn up lobster plushie missing eyes and stuffing. He will not let you touch it. Rat also has very small paws and a few missing or broken claws here and there.

Imagery

History Year 1 Year 2
 * Dante was born in the Haunted Mall and abandoned there, at that time the mall had been occupied by quite a few dogs but none of them were really a "pack", more so just scattered neighbors who refused to cooperate.
 * He was discovered by his father, who viewed Dante as a mistake or a weight on his back. However, he used the pup to his advantage.
 * His father would use him as a sort of pawn, promising to feed him only if he did something in return like bringing home food or valuables that could be used to gain leverage on other dogs.
 * While out doing some chore for his father, Dante was attacked by a swarm of rats. Many dogs watched him be mauled by the creatures but not one stopped to help him. Because of this, he gained a ring of nick scars around his neck and gained the nickname "Rat".
 * Over time, thhe resources in the mall began to run dry. Dogs started leaving one by one, and eventually even his own father left Rat behind. He was one of the only dogs left, and had to get used to living on his own.
 * Rat was discovered by Lux while they stayed in the Haunted Mall.
 * He attempted to scam two pack members out of their food, Sitka and Zara, using a trick similar to a cup and ball game and cheating by removing the ball while they weren't looking. After this, they offered to let him join them with the promise of being able to feed himself easier without having to trick people in exchange.
 * During the Elite Challenge Plots, Rat is faced with the challenge of driving a bear away from the pack. He does this by leading it to a cliff and causing it to slip off. Because of this, he almost slips himself but manages to survive and return to the pack.
 * During the first fight with the Glowy Collars, Rat was killed by Nox in his attempts to save a pup. His neck was snapped in front of the entire pack, in a show of intimidation and strength from the Glowies that promptly stopped the fight.
