Muskrat

Muskrats were a small species of rodent.

Habitats
In northwest Faerûn, muskrats could be found in the wilderness of Icewind Dale. In interior Faerûn, muskrats could be found in the Farsea Marshes and the Marsh of Tun.

Beyond Faerûn, muskrats could be found in the arctic plains of the Endless Wastes.

Relationships
Muskrats were known to act as servants of the deity Thoth.

Rangers that were specialized in traversing swamps sometimes had muskrats as animal companions.

Usages
Some creatures were known to kill muskrats for their pelts. These generally sold for around five silver pieces. Lulleth, a type of thick elven stew, was sometimes made with muskrat meat.

In Mirabar, the Sign of the Forgehammer inn sometimes served its patrons muskrat meat as a side.
