A bag of rats is a type of magical container that appears in SpliceHack and Hack'EM. It is made of cloth and appears as a bag when unidentified.
Generation
A bag of rats is always generated on the rat level.
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. Looting 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.
In Hack'EM, upgrading a bag of rats produces a bag of holding.
