'''Quill Rats''' is a family of animal monsters (monster type quillrat) with 6 variants: Kill Rat, Spike Fiend, Jungle Rat, Spiked Terror, Quill Bear, Cruciator.
'''Quill Rats.''' These mutated porcupines prey on unarmed victims and are not much of a threat to a well-armed adventurer. Still, their poison spines can get under the skin and slowly wear down a hero, and they have recently evolved the ability to spit grooved spines steered by an insect-like brain that unerringly arc towards their targets. When slain, the brittle spines scatter over a wide area, causing a lot of collateral damage.
'''Elite Quill Rats: Quill Bears.''' Rarely seen before, this species of quill rat is gigantic, shooting spines that are as large as chitinous war swords.
'''Elite Quill Rats: Cruciators.''' The offspring of the rats that inhabited Kurast, they have absorbed some of the city's holy radiance. Twisted by Mephisto, they now shoot glittering blades of fire.
'''Elite Quill Rats: Trap Rats.''' The lethal trap rats have evolved an air bladder that allows them to launch a veritable barrage of spines. A pack of trap rats can put hundreds of spines into the air in the span of a few seconds.
