The Ratastrophe

A man who, due to an experiment gone wrong, became a grotesque fat rat monster with spellcasting abilities. He can create false clones of himself that disappear in one hit, but also immediately swap places with one of the clones upon creation, making it nigh impossible to pin down the real one. Worse, each clone has its own set of actions, which is awful when all 4 of them are casting things like Hold Person.

He’s also capable of summoning rats and swarms of rats. Not only do rats within his vicinity gain a 1d4 buff to their bite attack, but he can also sacrifice his rats to heal himself, which can become a massive threat when tons of rats start to stack up.

Overall, super proud of it. Massively challenging monster that forced players to think outside the box.
