Pest Control

Tiny Nonmagical pest creatures such as rats and insects will not harm the Vermin unless the Vermin threatens or harms them first.

Actions

Scratch

Melee Weapon Attack, one target, 5ft. reach, +6 to hit, 2d4 poison damage.

Throw Rat

Ranged Weapon Attack, one target, range 30 ft., +6 to hit, 1d6 piercing damage and the target must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute.

Summon Vermin (2/day)

The Vermin releases a swarm of rats in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in the area must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, taking 3d6 poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Reactions

Skittish movement

The Vermin can move up to half its Speed as a reaction when an enemy ends its turn within 5 feet of it. This movement doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks.

Notes

Dirty, smelly, and skittish, the vermin has spent so long living among rats that their connection with humanity has faded. Although they have lost their access to polite society they truly feel at home with their rat colony, thriving in the dark filthy corners of the world.
