An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/6_E3Vm7U5aYPXO61bTJKrA==, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The gnawers are initially portrayed as being cold and self-centered. They are often aggressive, frequently attacking and occasionally eating members of the other sentinent species of the Underland. When Gregor asks Ripred if rats can love, he remarks that "We love ourselves very much." Later in the series, the gnawers are portrayed more sympathetically. It is revealed that, despite Ripred's sarcastic reply to Gregor's query in the first book, rats share strong bonds with their mates and pups, and, on the rare occasions that they befriend humans, are fierce and loyal friends.

  • The gnawers are initially portrayed as being cold and self-centered. They are often aggressive, frequently attacking and occasionally eating members of the other sentinent species of the Underland. When Gregor asks Ripred if rats can love, he remarks that "We love ourselves very much." Later in the series, the gnawers are portrayed more sympathetically. It is revealed that, despite Ripred's sarcastic reply to Gregor's query in the first book, rats share strong bonds with their mates and pups, and, on the rare occasions that they befriend humans, are fierce and loyal friends. Also, it's noted that rats enjoy a good joke. Such as when Ripred sees the shocked faces of the Underlanders when Gregor confirms that Ripred's a friend, in Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane, he ultimately cracks up. And when the rats look for Gregor in the same book, the rats start to joke about it, and start rolling on the ground, laughing hysterically. Also, rats sometimes even make jokes about themselves. Such as in Gregor the Overlander, Ripred jokes that rats "love themselves very much".
