Ratlings are the smallest type of abhuman.{{Fn|4a}} Ratlings They rarely reach 1.3 meters in height,{{Fn|4a}} being even smaller and slighter than a [[Kin]] of the [[Leagues of Votann]],{{Fn|3}} and though their lack of dietary restrictions tend to make them husky, they are not particularly strong{{Fn|4a}} or resilient.{{Fn|3}} They are a fertile,{{Fn|19}} and somewhat libidinous species.{{Fn|24d}} They have a deep sense of community and tend to look out for one another.{{Fn|24a}}
Other than their height, a Ratlings most notable feature is their feet; large, overly hairy, and toughened.{{Fn|19}} as well as their toenails being as tough as [[grox]] horns.{{Fn|24b}} These nails can grow into, what some might go as far as describing as, talons.{{Fn|24f}} Their bare feet allow them to move soundlessly.{{Fn|24c}} The forehead of their skulls are also denser than a baseline human's.{{Fn|24a}} Ratling are highly dexterous, agile, and clever. Able to make split second reactions that would be impossible for an unaugmented human.{{Fn|24}}
