Spite Rat

Spite Rats are a type of Spectre found in Orpheus. Essentially animal ghosts-turned-Spectre, Spite Rats first appeared in large numbers after the major Spectral hives bloomed, releasing thousands of Spectres into this world. As the name suggests they resemble dead and decaying rats, albiet ones about two to three times the size of their living counterparts. Spite Rats work in huge swarms, overcoming a victim with sheer numbers. They have little more than claws and sharp teeth as weapons, but when there are hundred of them versus one ghost, they have a distinct advantage.
