(Released Animal Test Subjects)
In the late 90s, Arachnos began something called “The Nimh Project” run by a master of masters in the field of genetics and biology, 'Dr. Nimh.'
The objective of The Nimh Project was to create a disposable rapid response military force, capable of following basic orders and military strategies while maintaining enough autonomy to adapt to dynamic combat situations. Dr. Nimh sought to do this by ‘tweaking’ the genetic code of pre-existing animals, utilizing their natural behaviors and adaptations for military purposes and giving them just enough intelligence and modification to fight.
Then, On May 18th, 2019, Nimh's power plant underwent a catastrophic failure.
As the labs went dark, specimen doors burst open and the halls became filled with shrieks and demands of freedom. Facility staff were too late to learn that this wasn't just a power outage - but a plan of sabotage that had been years in the making by the very subjects they created.
The Escapees fled on make-shift rafts, spreading out throughout the Rogue Islands. Many sought shelter in the old sewers of Port Oaks. But as the exodus of newly freed specimens started crowding into the shanty town, there came a need for organization and infrastructure.
Rat City was born!
Today, word of the city draws in misfits and outcasts who don't fit in to normal society. Citizens of Rat City pride themselves on their independence and resourcefulness, even if a lot of their culture is a shabby copy of what they see on TV.
The city welcomes visitors, but the council of RATS is hesitant to receive military or technological help from surface worlders, for fear of becoming too reliant on them and losing their hard-fought independence.
