A '''bag of rats''' is a type of [[Magical item|magical]] [[container]] that appears in [[SpliceHack]] and [[Hack'EM]]. It is made of [[cloth]] and appears as a [[bag]] when unidentified.

==Description==
When [[applied]], a bag of rats functions similarly to a [[bag of tricks]] in ''[[NetHack]]'' and some of its variants: a charged bag of rats will use up one charge and generate a random [[rat]], while an uncharged bag of rats behaves as a regular magical bag and can be used to store items. [[Loot]]ing a charged bag of rats on the ground will either cause a rat from the bag to bite for 2d4 damage, or else print a message with no other effect. Looting or applying the charged bag will [[auto-identify]] it.

Placing a bag of rats into a [[bag of holding]] will cause a magical explosion that destroys both bags and scatters the contents of the latter - in Hack'EM, the game will prevent you from inserting an identified bag of rats into a bag of holding. [[Charging]] an uncharged bag of rats that has contents inside will also cause it to explode and scatter the contents.

==Messages==
{{message|A whiskered critter bites you!|You attempted to loot a charged bag of rats on the ground, and took damage.}}
{{message|The bag emits a petulant squeaking noise and snaps shut.|As above, but nothing happened.}}
