Description

The Rat Thieves are members of the gang Rat's Raiders and are potentially hostile NPCs on Zheng Shi.

Appearance

Three diminutive mouse pirates stare you down with unwavering focus, weaving slowly near each other with confident smiles on their smooth and furry faces as colorful as their attitudes. They exchange knowing glances and mime invisible instructions between their thin lips, utterly assured of their victory against you through numbers alone. They make frequent attempts to bypass and surround you, their smooth undulations and whip-cracking tails a constant hair-raising reminder to be on guard.

They're protected by cobbled together suits of matte-black armor made of parts scrapped from a variety of manufacturers, giving them each a unique take on the dress code. Their helmets have special plates that fold over their wobbling, dish-shaped ears - even their tails, adorned with ribbons, are armored… bladed. On their gloved wrists, however, they each wear the same luminous wristband that spells 'RAT'S RAIDERS' in bright blue around the tight hoop. Those words leave fugitive shadows in the wake of elusive motions.


History/Personality/Information of Note

The Rat Thieves are members of the Rat Raiders gang and one of the 5 major gangs on Zheng Shi alongside the Corona Lords, the Jumper Pirates, Cyberpunks, and Star Vipers.

Unlike the other gangs, who all take some responsibility in ensuring that the mining operations go smoothly and generally tolerate each other, the Rats, while tasked with keeping freelancers out of the Foundry and Mines, often spend their time trying to rob unaffiliated individuals instead. The Raiders encountered in-game fancy themselves as Robin Hood like characters; they care a great deal more for filthy lucre than sex, drugs, weapons, etcetera, and claim frequently that they are using their illicit gains to help others. As such, their favorite - and exclusive - targets are megacorporations, delighting in the fortunes to be made from the galaxy's richest and handing it out to those less fortunate.

A potential interaction indicates if Steele has no gems and a very, very low amount of credits on his or her person that they do practice what they preach, doling out only modest, necessary sums. The wily rodents never fight with claiming someone's body in mind, and are always encountered very insistently shaking down someone deemed to be 'out of place' for a donation of credits or gems, becoming hostile if their insipid toll is ignored.

Interactions

The PC will first hear of Rat's Raiders either after talking to the Rodenian Mechanic or speaking with Ardia about the Pirates. 72 hours after defeating Urbolg, an event can proc where the Korgonne Artificer will be fending them off from his workshop following a failed robbery. Only after witnessing this event will the Rat Thieves begin spawning Rarely in the Mines, and Commonly on the Foundry.

When the player encounters the Rat Thieves they will use their tails to force the PC's back against a wall or into a corner and force them to pay a toll. Methods of payment consist of:

  • Pay Credits - Probably the safest option. All you have to do is load an anonymous chit and move on with your life… with quite a bit less in your digital wallet.
    • The Thieves will force you to pay a percentage of your current total of wealth. Possessing large amounts of money leads to greater losses.
    • Requires at least 1500 Credits
      • Amount paid is reduced if the player has befriended the Rats after being discovered
    • Amount donated to them is tracked.
  • Pay Gems - You've not got a fight in you right now, best to pay up. Though considering they'll be looming over you and peering into your pack, this may be a bad idea.
    • Requires you to have a Picardine Crystal, a Satyrite Crystal, a Kirkite Crystal, or Savicite
    • If the player has 3 or less gems they will leave the player with 1 to protect them from Mining Robots. If the player has 4-15 gems they will take 3-6 gems. If the player possesses a large number of Gems (15+) and has not befriended the rats, then they will demand all of the gems or start a fight.
  • Offer Oral - It's demeaning, but maybe you can get out of having to fight or pay if you offer them a little stress relief?
    • The player attempts to seduce the thieves with oral sex to avoid the toll and the fight. However, this option has a 40% chance to fail. You can increase your odds of success for every pheromone perk you have to a minimum of 10%.
    • Failing to Offer Oral or offer Milk will cause the Rats to start with higher lust if the player proceeds to fight them.
    • Increases Rat Reputation by 1% if it succeeds.
  • Offer Milk - You're not feeling up to fighting today, certainly not with breasts this full. See if the mouse-pirates will accept a creamier treasure than they're used to.
    • Requires the PC to be lactating heavily.
    • Requires Nipples to be either normal or inverted. Gooey tits, obscene nipple mutations, and Cum/Girlcum flavored lactation will lock this scene.
    • The player attempts to seduce the thieves, offering to breastfeed them. However, this option has a 40% chance to fail. You can increase your odds of success for every pheromone perk you have to a minimum of 10%.
    • Failing to Offer Oral or offer Milk will cause the Rats to start with higher lust if the player proceeds to fight them.
    • Increases Rat Reputation by 2% if it succeeds.
  • I'm Poor! - You have nothing to offer. If they've any principles, they won't attack you!
    • Requires the player to be carrying no gems and less than 1500 credits
    • Will result in the Raiders giving you at least 2000 credits + 1 random gem.
  • Fight - Negotiations have broken down. Time to knock some sense into these vermin!
    • Initiates combat

After four wins or losses cumulatively, the Rats will discern them to be the child of Victor Steele and fed a lie that you are the current CEO of Steele Tech by the Rival. This causes the rodents to see you as a wealthy corpo fiend who believes they can do whatever they want; presumptions are made that Steele is a villain who needs to give back bit by bit. Including interrupt the operations happening on Zheng Shi. This will make them more hostile and harsh towards the PC causing them to fight more aggressively, demand more money and gems, appear more frequently, and unlock a unique Loss Sex Scene for PCs with a Penis. It is possible however, to change their opinion of you via your actions before and after fighting them.

Combat

The Rat Thieves are probably the most dangerous Generic enemy on Zheng Shi. This is because while the Bored Jumper focuses on a Smuggler fighting style, the Cyberpunk Security Operatives focus on a Tech Specialist fighting style, the Forgehound of the Corona Lords focuses on a Mercenary fighting style, and the Slyveren Slavebreaker focuses on a lust-based fighting style, the Rat Thieves combine some of their elements in addition to working in groups of three. One of them will be a Female Rodenian, one will be a Human male modded with a mouse's ears and tail, and the last one will either be a Half-Rodenian Boy or Girl.

All rats have shared attacks, but Males and Females have their own unique approach to the fight. Female Rats have higher shields and are more vulnerable to electric attacks to weaken them for a Drone like TamWolf or Siegwulfe. They focus on stunning the player, hindering them, and bringing down their shields. Inversely, they are easier to stun. Male Rats have higher HP values, are harder to stun, and work on tripping and beating down the player through brute force.

Moreover, true to their name, they are more concerned about making a profit and as such are highly resistant to tease attacks. The intimidating presence of a very tall PC (6'5+) causes them to work harder, lowering their lust.

All rats are equipped with Ratty Armor, Shock Baton, and Salamander Shields.

    • If the PC has a vagina and is a vaginal virgin, then the PC's asshole will be used instead.

    • Doggystyle - Line the rats up on all fours, inspect the goods, and see which one's worth a ride.

    • Requires a penis

    • Must not be a taur
    • During this scene the Rodenian Female will become hypnotized and the player can choose four options that influence her mental state and change the dynamics to Ear Sex.

      • Assert - Treat her like your favorite pet and make her experience pleasure just from seeing you happy.

      • Neutral - While there's a few things you could say to make this better, you can just leave her mental state mostly alone and focus on sex.


Seasonal Event - Christmaus Cheer

During the Christmas seasonal period, it is possible to undergo a series of events with the six mice.

  • PC must raise the Rat Attitude to 50+ after being identified as the CEO-to-be of Steele Tech
  • PC must have a penis or a vagina
  • PC must have read the Rodenian codex entry
  • PC must not be a 'taur

When these stipulations are met, then while docked on Zheng Shi, there is a 25% chance when entering the Ship that the PC will be approached and can let them on the ship or turn them away. The PC will be able to have sex with some of the mice and at the end receive a handful of credits, and potentially, Claes' panties if the PC befriended them prior to this event.

Rival Event on Zheng Shi

After befriending Rat's Raiders and using [Not Enemies], then Steele will have an alternative method of dealing with the Rival when reaching the Sidewinder. Normally when Steele approaches, {Feruze] and the cousin will be an obstacle that the player must fight through to get on board the Sidewinder. A hidden [ ??? ] option unlocks, and when chosen, has the six mice show up to help. Feruze and the Cousin will leap and fly to safety, chased off by the rodents, and Steele will get a kiss on the cheek before the rodenian bandits scurry after them.

This means that the PC will not fight Feruze, but it does count as a win of sorts.


Trivia

  • Despite referring themselves to the Rat Raiders their appearance and profile is more befitting of mice.
  • On Silly Mode, a repeat encounter blurb has someone resembling the lead singer of Ghost, Cardinal Copia, appearing, singing, and dancing in a reference to the song Rats, performed by the band.
