Ratfolk
Ratfolk are small, clever, and adaptable humanoids with ratlike features and a love of community.
Ysoki are beings that most surface-dwelling humanoids refer to as “ratfolk.” They are a communal people who prefer cramped conditions, with up to 100 individuals living in a given home. If they can't find homes in town, ratfolk may instead live in caves and cavern complexes, as these provide great storage for the many and varied goods they bring back from trading expeditions.
Ratfolk love to travel, and they can often be found on the road in merchant caravans. They're good with their hands and have a keen eye for spotting anything out of the ordinary, from threats to treasures. They're also inveterate hoarders; ysoki warrens are crammed full of unusual odds and ends gathered by previous generations and stowed away in preparation for some future emergency.

Ratfolk, or ysoki as they are known amongst themselves, live across Numeria and revel in the innovating using the alien technology they discover. These ysoki are known as Numerian Tinkerers, and they trade their technological wares and innovative know-how in marketplaces across Numeria. The ysoki have a de facto capital of their own in the settlement of Chitterhome, but few outsiders have ever been allowed to visit
