8. Undead rats, Dark Souls
Dark Souls’ undead rats are in every sewer losing chunks of their face and stuff. They are a bit cowardly, but won’t hesitate to chomp on you if need be. Occasionally, they drop humanity, a consumable item that improves your character’s robustness (among other things) and metaphorically links you with the rotting rat. Gross but true.
How nice is this rat? I’m going with a 5/10. Seems context dependent. They’re passive unless you get in their business, and I can empathize with their defensiveness as someone with a hidden cardboard cutout of ex-boybander Niall Horan
How stylish is this rat? Not very, unfortunately. I know you’re shy and all, undead rat, but at least cover your decaying flesh with a jaunty little boater. 2/10
Is this rat free of disease? Due to the decaying flesh, I am forced to assume that it isn’t. No judgment, rat. 0/10
Best friend score: 2.3
