Small but plucky, the Rodental are the penultimate dashing heroes, despite their small stature and sometimes iconic appearance, they are never one to shy away from a battle, launching headfirst into any fight. However, their true ability is to inspire others into fighting for what's right. For if even a lowly rodent can stand up and fight against evil, then anyone can do it.
Rodental's often appear when inexperienced do gooders are on the ropes against superior evil foes, they will fight to defend their young allies, lending their magic to them to give them a second wind to fight back, or at very least distract an enemy long enough for their new friends to get away. Many a first time adventurer owes their life to these swashbuckling Agathion.
Rodental also sometimes serve as bodyguards to more powerful Agathion, accompanying them on important missions or meetings. Rodentals have a friendly rivalry with the cat like Silvanshee, and the two subspecies love to try and outdo one another.
A Rodental is 2 feet tall and weighs 40 pounds.
Authors note: And here we have my first good aligned monster, and my first dabbling into one of the established Outsider races. Plus my first attempt to give a monster a magic weapon. In any case I think I did alright. I wonder about the spell like abilities a bit. Of course all of these will probably need serious editing at some point.
In any case, next time we wrap up Rat Week.
