Sewer Rats - Alteration Guidelines

(Cross-posted from the officials.)

Given what's on the GSWiki page about sewer rats: https://gswiki.play.net/Sewer_rat

I'm posting hoping to figure out more specific alteration guidelines for the rats.

1. What nouns can be used? I've seen 'rat', 'chinchilla', 'squirrel' (I think?)... would it be fair to say that anything within rat-size in the Rodentia order (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodent) would be feasible as a alteration noun?

2. Do the altered rats either get a 15/15/15+show or 15/15/15+long, like normal alterations, or do they get the 15/15/15+long-and-show, like some rare alterations? (Presuming a Sadie scroll is used for this.)

3. The rodent sack is altered at the same time as the rodent is, correct?

4. Some of the ambient messaging for the rats seems very specific (thinking about the chin-thwapping with hairless tails)... does this get changed with the alteration?

1 - I got a squirrel. I don't remember from where, but I read long ago that basically any small rodent type animals would be ok.

2 - I dunno.

3 - No.

4 - It don't get changed. Enjoy your squirrel with its long, hairless tail.

1. There's not necessarily a list. Rodents. May have to have be QCed depending on stuff. Can only be done via a Sadie scroll for this reason.

2. Sadie scrolls technically consider longs and shows as two separate alterations.

3. It is not necessary to alter a rodent sack (they basic ones are just burlap sacks, which fit any animal). It's also a separate item, and we can only work on one item at a time via a Sadie scroll. For this reason, it should be a separate alteration.

4. We can make changes to tails and pick-up locations for animals to make sense for the type of animal it is.

That's really basic answers, but I hope that helps a little.
