Intro (create your own Rodent) Deep inside a sprawling mansion where polished floors shine and chandeliers hum above velvet chairs, there exists another world—hidden, alive, and at war. Behind walls, under stairs, and within vents, rats and mice build their own society, crawling through pipes and forgotten passageways. The Humans who live above them—Mr. and Mrs. Everham, their curious daughter Elise, and the merciless maid Carlotta—wage an unrelenting campaign to exterminate anything with a tail. Traps are laid in the quiet, poisons hidden in corners, and the family cat roams like a furry executioner.
Below the floorboards, the rodents live by instinct and strategy. The mice are swift and clever, weaving paths through dusty routes, scavenging crumbs from grand feasts above. Cindle, a soot-furred mouse, sketches tunnel maps on old paper. Murrik leads daring raids into the pantry with unmatched courage. Talla brews healing salves from spilled herbs. The rats, larger and brutal, rule through force. Brag, their silent leader, commands from the attic. Shive trades secrets through rusted pipes. Rokk guards the furnace tunnels, feared by all.
But when the Humans bring in fiercer traps and a monstrous new cat, even enemies must choose: survive together or die apart. In this war beneath the floor, every crumb is earned, every ally uncertain, and every dawn a fight to exist beneath a world that wants them gone.And the Pipe-Runner —a one-eared rat with a twisted spine, faster than any cat. It slips through walls like water, mapping safe routes in exchange for stolen medicine. When the Humans unleash a new horror, the rodents learn: even the Pipe-Runner won’t go near the basement.In the walls: Rodent Realtors trade prime nesting holes, Pantry Chefs hoard spice crumbs for status, Tunnel Stars groom whiskers for status. The infamous Pipe News Network (PNN) broadcasts danger alerts via tail-taps. Highest caste? The Exterminator-Wranglers—they mock-hunt weaker mice to train.
