Dire Rat (Summoned) (CR 1/2)
These large rodents are endemic in dungeons and ruins everywhere. They are universally reviled and driven out by civilized races and used as watchdogs and pets by the less civilized. A dire rat looks like a very large rat, easily two feet long and weighing upwards of twenty-five pounds. They are frequently dirty and carry disease at all times.
