Getting out of THAT one involved my enchanter turning his familiar into a dwarf [who could only say chrrp chrrp... so convincing] and trying to pass him off as the culprit. Somehow this worked.)
Considering you can miss a majority of these type of interactions by just disregarding the animals or not even taking animal speak is insane to me. Really feels like a campaign where the DM just says "Whatever, talk to the stupid rat named SKITTLE of all things instead of my hand crafted, carefully well thought out characters"
I now want to run a crazy homeless person who is acting as a pillar of the community for rats, raccoons, pigeons, the odd vulture, and so on. Act as an intermediary for a bazaar in the storm drains.
@@mattwo7 There's a type of wild mouse that hunts (bugs?) by the light of the moon and howls ultrasonically when it kills! I also had a hamster who laughed audibly when he was tickled. Even had one who sang to us. Rodents are very cool.
Gosh a permanent vendor in camp would be amazing, and it'd have been doubly so if the only way to unlock that is by finding this rat and having the ability to converse with it lol, two very specific things, but that's what makes it a secret feature. Would have been a cool secret find.
I thought for sure the joke would be that he sells garbage because rats have a different idea about what is and isn't valuable, and then he just happened to sell everything you could need to do a jailbreak.
Just when I thought this game couldn't be even more amazing, I find this video. I lost it when the rat had thieves tools and a scroll of dimension door, the exact things needed to escape a prison LOL 😂. These developers are so clever.
His puns are more on point than his cute lil nose. Vote to get Skittles to join the party somehow. Look at him, you could just carry him about and feed him tender morsels of yummy treats.
It blows my mind how much time and effort and voice lines they have put in this game that a lot of people won’t even get to hear, because it requires casting a spell first. Like Speak with Animals or Speak with the Dead. So awesome.
@@meme13100 It's a reference to Warhammer Fantasy: specifically the Skaven (evil Ratmen) and how there's a whole conspiracy to hide the fact they exist from the general (human) population. Which the fandom exaggerates to even the concept of "talking rats" being completely preposterous to the average person.
Prisoner: Excellent, those bastard guards didn't find the Scroll of Dimensional Door I had tucked away, now to find... it... oh gods... WHERE THE HELLS IS IT?! Skittle: Rat-astrophe for you, friend, but cheese-ing to my customers!
Pay attention to the spells he had. Every one of them tells a plan to escape prison, make guards chasing you slip over on the Grease'd floor, and then set fire to them all when they're covered in grease. 🤣
So, I got the speak with animals spell on my bard thinking that it might be useful once in a while.... I think I've spoken to more animal than non-animal NPC's at this point. There are Just so many animals out there with useful stories to tell.
I never thought someone could rival cat puns and what animal does it? A rat! Well now that I think about it it does make sense as cat and rat do rhyme with each other so all the cat puns that just cat instead can be replaced by rat but they also came up with some pretty unique ones! Anti-Cat Pun propaganda give the other animals room for puns!!!😂
Animals have the best dialogue in the game and it's not even a contest. I wonder if the writers just felt like they could go ham since it's sort of "hidden" content.
I wonder if this is a reference of sorts to Lord Vetinari from the Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett. As a result of a revolt he gets thrown into a dungeon he designed for that very purpose and the intelligent rats bring him food and stuff in exchange for lessons in politics. One of the rats is called Skrp. SKrp - SKittles, I wonder if it is just a coincidence or not.
Reasons I like Skittle.
- He’s cheesed to meet you.
- His name is Skittle
I find Skittle to be Rat-tacular
The fact his stock is everything you'd need for a prison breakout is the cherry on top
accumulated from the corpses of previous attempts at breakouts perhaps
The rat knows his customer base.
Just what you want to cheese the escape sequence.

Skittle... Skittle THE RAT... Has an Elixir of Universal Resistance. One of the most powerful D&D 5e magic items I've ever seen. FOR 300 GP.
I would buy his entire stock just because he's perfect, but the fact that it's all useful, especially situationally...
It's deserving of a congRatulations!
Skittle has wares if you have coin.
Elixir of Universal Rat-sisance.
Rats aren't good at economics.
He's the giant rat that makes all of the rules

Let's see what trouble he can get himself into
You might say he stalks at night and preys at night
@@freakymoejoe2🎶We are the rats.🎶
Rats rats we are the rats, come on celebrate another birthday bash
DURGE, it’s your birthday today
This rat is selling prisoners scrolls of dimensional door... god that's gotta be lucrative.
Provided the prisoners can find a way to get their hands on any gold... i'm pretty sure the guards 'confiscate' that.
Luc-rat-ive. Hah! :D
If the prisoners can speak with animals
The prisoners could have family or friends on the outside whom may be willing to pay on their behalf.
"I use talk with animals to converse with the rat for half an hour"
DM sighs heavily: I'll allow it.
He's perfect. He has my eternal ratitude.

One might say it's a rat-solute waste to not take animal speaking.

I love how he squeaks whenever he makes puns. It like the snorting equivalent for rats 😂
Rats laugh when you tickle them
@@Freecell82 Yea, in ultrasonic, we can't hear them normally. It sounds super weird when the waveforms are adjusted for human hearing.
As a punnoisseur I have to say that bit is actually the low point of his performance.

Everyone needs to send Larian emails about Skittle the Camp Store-Rat (/j)
I thought for sure the joke would be that he sells garbage because rats have a different idea about what is and isn't valuable, and then he just happened to sell everything you could need to do a jailbreak.
And I'd still buy something if it was trash just so Skittles didn't get upset.
I love how he squeaks with glee whenever he laughs or makes a bad pun
As a punnoisseur I have to say that bit is actually the low point of his performance.
The judgment makes the pun.
Have you ever heard heard rat giggles?
The arrogant cat and the rat are the best characters in the entire game .
But what about that shy red cat?)
I'm going to have to disagree... the pigeon in Act III.
Gruuuuuuuuuuuuub!
♥♥♥
@@matthagan2977 Well , top 3 characters of the whole game .
His Majesty
The developers have no idea how pleased everyone would be if they let Skittle be able to join our camp.
The fact that 1) he understands that he's punning and you're punning back, and 2) he leans into it are why I'd buy this rat's entire stock.
That's Marshall. The Town Rat.
Oh Marshall…you had such sweet eyes….Who could’ve done such a horrible thing?
@@casualgamingauraous2345 Marshall has no moral compass. He is a rat!
@@casualgamingauraous2345 he's a rat! he has no moral concious!
I KNEW someone would make this joke 😭
But where's his gun?!
The amount of dialogue available for talking to random inconsequential NPCs in this game never ceases to amaze me. Lol
Larian does animals very well, particularly rats.
They have also absolutely NAILED the energy of cats and dogs
I distinctly remember a rat in Divinity who said they “can’t be rat-ernizing with the likes of you!”
Oh no don't stop the puns. They are the most rat-tastic.
Party members: “oh great! There he goes talking with the rats again!”
I heard that in Astarion‘s voice.
Just when I thought this game couldn't be even more amazing, I find this video. I lost it when the rat had thieves tools and a scroll of dimension door, the exact things needed to escape a prison LOL 😂.
These developers are so clever.
The amount of Rat content in Baldur's Gate 3 is surprising, but not unwelcome.
His puns are more on point than his cute lil nose. Vote to get Skittles to join the party somehow. Look at him, you could just carry him about and feed him tender morsels of yummy treats.
I'm starting to understand why Minsc went loopy. Boo probably hits the poor guy with hamster puns 24/7...
I have pet rats. This is almost entirely accurate, except mine have Norwegian accents. For some weird reason.
What does a Norwegian accent even sound like
@@GigiBranconi watch AlbinoVEVO
@@GigiBranconi Kinda like a Swedish accent, but a little to the West.
@@rayanderson5797 ...
Like a Canadian Swede?
@@GigiBranconi like Vikings, but richer.
He's nicer than the Shar temple rats. Then again, it's 100 rats that makes up one last justicar
If I were the DM, I'd have named him Ratrick
I was thinking Ratthew myself xD
There is already Batrick
Somebody had to say all of this without laughing. Incredible.
Larion is my favorite game devs simply bc of this in their games, i fucking love talking to animals.
It blows my mind how much time and effort and voice lines they have put in this game that a lot of people won’t even get to hear, because it requires casting a spell first. Like Speak with Animals or Speak with the Dead. So awesome.
This rat is giving the Crypt-keeper a run for his coin.
that makes me wonder if you can pickpocket rats lol
👀
You cant pickpoket animals :D No pockets ;)
@@Acanis87 What about kangaroos, possums and such? 🤔
dear god, he conquered me 1 sentences in
how much better it could be if it would accept only cheese for a barter
Maybe if you try bartering with cheese, it’ll actually work.
@@xXSakuraTearsXx xXCheesemateXx XD
The irony being if you actually get locked up, you're broke and can't actually buy any of the items he sells to help break you out.
I love rats a lot and have used rat puns in films I have made, so Skittle became the best video game character of the year for me.
Skittle just loves being a rat
and i think we can all respect that.
Never enough rat puns 😂
2:52 *"Everyone disliked that"*
By Sigmar it’s a talking rat, I’m going INSANE!!!
Not really talking it's you speaking it's language

@@martenkahr3365 interesting stuff.
Skittle really caught up in that rat race huh?
I think my favorite is the cat who speaks like a noir detective.
0_0 the puns were great but I was not expecting to see a gui pop up and actual wares for sale...
Prisoner: Excellent, those bastard guards didn't find the Scroll of Dimensional Door I had tucked away, now to find... it... oh gods... WHERE THE HELLS IS IT?!
Skittle: Rat-astrophe for you, friend, but cheese-ing to my customers!
My god, this rat gives the Palicos from Monster Hunter a run for their zenny when it comes to puns.
I LOVE HIM 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
You can call me Skittle. 😌
Though seriously, I like that they've added these amusing little interactions with animals.
*Queek Headtaker liked that.*
Yes-yes
I'm crying on the floor
I would die for him
Clearly this rat was a human who got Isekaied
I LOVED finding this npc, it felt special to find him as a secret vendor
Was hoping he would sell cheese.
Pay attention to the spells he had. Every one of them tells a plan to escape prison, make guards chasing you slip over on the Grease'd floor, and then set fire to them all when they're covered in grease. 🤣
For you, it's on the mouse!
My first time seeing a rat who is a merchant.
😂😂😂 i just love seeing people playing and interect with the rat and the aroggant cat
God I wish I was that rat
His fucking chuckles, LMFAO. He's really laughing at his own shit, this game's writers are amazing.
Skittle alone makes this goty
Is rat all? Damn. I'm cheesed to meet him
omg never knew this npc existed until now. starting a new game to go find him.
The real question is, how is a rat going to carry 924 gold pieces?
Why carry it when he could sleep on the horde dragonstyle
You can tell whoever voice him had so much fun
So, I got the speak with animals spell on my bard thinking that it might be useful once in a while....

This is one _rat_ you don’t have to worry about _ratting_ you out to the guards!
Squeak with Animals
should have brought him a cheese wheel
Game of the Century. LONG LIVE SKITTLE!
So cuute
Best. NPC. EVER!
I fucking love this game.

Rat-kin is friend-chum, yes-yes.
Give warpstone.
Oh wow. He reads like an homage to Skrp, from Guards, Guards!
Thanks for sharing 🥰
I'm about to buy this solely for the possibility to talk to animals
By the way I did buy it for that reason and I love this game so much
He should be selling a drum that goes rat-a-tat.
He’s so cute!!!
I would kill for him.
actually amazing
Skittle and his delightful puns would fit perfectly in a Dragon Quest game.
_The rrat glares at you but says nothing_
i love this game sm
what a smart and enterprising rat
Rats in shar temple:
*LEAVE!*
these puns are gold!
i love him

It sound like frieza
To buy the key you need to change from barter mode to sell mode on the option at the top of the buy/sell menu.
I would gladly go to jail if Skittle were my cell mate
I adore this.
in squeak-ret xD I fuckin lost it. This is so good.
The Rattus Fiber are at it again in the hold
That rat makes more than I do
Good thing he doesn't try to rat you out.
god the dialogue and VA in this game is phoenominal
This is the best game ever
I also loved the bluejay who thought eagles are, and I quote, pricks.
That key he owns can be sold in 9 fingers so buy it
