Garbage Rat

The Tatooinian garbage rats were a tiny yet sleek scavenger race that tended to set up warrens within the rubbish wastes that had accumlated in dirtier, less frequented byways. A sentient animal, they carried sharp but primitive digging equipment on their backs and spoke with a chatter, openly hostile toward larger species with whom they felt little empathy. They were native to the planet Tatooine.
