Yeah i’m sure Udvil “Ratty” Ratlock is probably just a [somewhat sadistic] pirate jailer and not some sewer dwelling rat king, but the name inspired a sudden burst of flavour.
I figure this dumb version of him like, on one hand, is the crazy rat guy, with his loyal pets following him around. But on the other hand, he probably also eats them and has the ability to skin a rat and wear its tiny pelt like a mask to gain creeper stealth powers.
Not sure if his power bonus is enough incentive to sac a nearly unblockable 1/1, but i like the idea that he wears a flayed rat to become a “rat” and thus gets skulky from his own ability.
Maybe he himself should have first strike and give all rats inverse skulk instead, so anything of equal or lesser power blocking him when he’s 4/2 or 6/2 etc will get rekt ...ratkt?... ... ... ...Ok yeah skulk becomes worse as he gets bigger, he definitely either needs first strike or reverse skulk instead
He and Marrow Gnawer would be good pals. At least until he pressed play on Goodbye Horses and made the poor nezumi into a skin suit :/
