Description

Ratels appear to be anthropomorphic honey badgers. They have short muzzles, small eyes, small flat heads, broad backs, loose skin, thick set bodies, and long bodies. They have very thick skin and short sturdy legs, and their hands are naked of fur. Their tails are short but have long hairs. Their ears are not visible on their bodies. They stand about 4' tall.

Procreation

Follows the mother.

Magic

One in five million have heart or soul magic. Mind and body magic are possible. Void is possible. Faith is not uncommon.

Special Powers

Ratels are very tough. They have strong claws, sharp teeth, rough tongues, and a powerful musk gland. They are hunters and warriors, and they do not take penalties for called shots at vulnerable spots on victims. They are good with tools and weapons, and they tend to be incredibly persistent.

Weaknesses

A precision strike can take them down.

Culture

Ratels are rough, tough warriors, living in bonded pairs or alone, toughing it out in the worst lands on Shem--the worse the better for them. They take immense pride in their own toughness and refuse to let any challenge go unaccepted. They use holes in the ground as homes, moving often, always looking for a fight.
