Musrusquas are small, intelligent mammals slightly resembling molerats who live in and under forests. Musrusqua skin is made of a durable chitin scaling that make them incredibly resilient to predators. These small creatures are best known by adventurers and travelers who frequent the publicweald, where they routinely yell at human passerbys in their harsh, squealing language. Underground, musrusquas are unrivaled in speed; their long, sharp claws can pierce through hard stone as easily as they can dig through dirt.
