Ruskin

Vermin type

An old canal rat in spectacles and a green scarf, with a walking stick he points at things. A Sewer Rat by birth and the Drain Terrapins' mentor by choice. He came along because you went easy on his boys.

The Ruskin is one of 14 vermin in Vampire Genesis, creatures of the sewers and the plague pits. He is never caught: he joins vampires who have caught all four Drain Terrapins, at the river stairs.
