Appearance(s)

Rats are just medium-sized, long-tailed rodents living in inhabited areas. Before the domesticating of cats their existence had been a great problem to human societies, most frequently being solved by hiring a rat-catcher playing a musical instrument.

Large, savage rats living in the wilderness are called skrekks. Mutated forms of the species are pseudorats, and the cursed people who are able to take the form of half-human, half-rat are wererats.

In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Groups of rats appear in a few quests throughout the game. Depending on whether you set option "enemy upscaling" off or on, they can be the weakest or the strongest enemies in the game.
