Ragaron

The more savage cousins of weski, Ragaron are the (still small) hulking warriors of rodent kind. Often relegated to the dark corners and sewers of cities, Ragaron are typically sour creatures with a mistrust of anyone that isn't one of their's. Forming structures within these slums similar to tengu, their gangs are even larger, and a bit crueler. Without that lust for shinies that the flightless birds have, they have more sadistic hobbies.
Ragaron aren't well liked. If they aren't in a society of some sort, they often find themselves in the company of rougher folk, like gnolls, goblins, and orcs. Ragaron can handle the poor environments these creatures inhabit, have large enough families to replace their dead, and are typically more intelligent than them. Warbands of these more savage races typically get started with ragarons as the heads. If they are in a city of some sort, they can quickly take over if not properly relegated.
Ragaron dislike most other races. They might tolerate tengu, but that's only if they don't act as competition. They have a hatred towards their other rodent cousins weski, and especially nimbulasa. They often bully their smaller rodentkin, make fun of their weaker stature, that sort of deal. If they ever get a hold of a nimbulasa, that's where their sadism might truly show. Thankfully, the chances of that are rare.
Ragaron are somewhat religious. They tend towards evil gods, like Slaveku and Doko. Those that enjoy spreading the diseases they're naturally resistant to often follow Erux Pho. Funnily enough, they take perverse pleasure in denigrating the beliefs of Hyakuuwuu. Clumps of the ratfolk are not good people. Though, there are also some good ragaron. They're rare, but some cultures have ragaron happily coexisting with their normal populace. In these cases, they act a lot like bigger weski. They love family, enjoy tinkering, and generally work hard.
