A '''rat''' is a small background creature, which can usually be seen crawling along the ground in ''[[Rayman 3]]'' LOOKING FOR MONEY. Like [[turtle]]s, they can be kicked by [[Rayman]], sending them spinning though the air. They appear mostly in [[the Desert of the Knaaren]], but one can also be found on the floor of [[the Fairy Council]], and several others can be seen in [[Count Razoff]]'s mansion in [[the Bog of Murk]]. As a result of their tormented upbringing under the [[Knaaren]], rats appear to derive some form of masochistic pleasure from pain – when kicked by [[Rayman]], they usually comment with perverse sentences.
At least one [[Knaaren]] has domesticated a pet rat; as [[Rayman]] is about to fall down the hole leading to the fight against [[Reflux]], one [[Knaaren]] laments to another about his dead pet rat called Sally.
Rats also appear in ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', but merely as background elements and unable to be interacted with.

From infancy, the Rat was tortured by the Knaarens. He's a melancholy soul and he just loves it when folk remind him of his earliest days by beating the hell out of him.
