Scabbers - Ratfolk Warriors

When the Konigsratte was donated to the Crucible, the arena’s owners thought it prudent to provide the rat king with subjects: Scabbers, as they call them. They were able to purchase a shipment of ratfolk from Sudd Tohst’s black market, having them discretely shipped to Belfrie thereafter. Since slavery is outlawed in Belfrie, these ratfolk have been kept a secret until they join their king in his first fight. Whatever the fine after, they can pay it. Unknown to the organizers though, is that the Scabbers have contracted the same form of Dragonblight as their king. Should they escape the confinement of the Crucible, they could very easily bring about a second Dragonblight incursion across Belfrie, or beyond. It would be calamitous. None will realise this until it is too late, however, for the organizers are desperate to keep their cards close to their chests, and only a select few are even aware of these creature’s existence.
