Skeever (Skyrim)

Skeevers are large, rat-like creatures that make their nests in the caves, sewers, wilderness, and underground warrens of their native home, Skyrim. While easy to kill, they can be a challenge in groups, and carry debilitating diseases. Many residents of the northern country find Skeevers to be pests and vermin. There is also evidence that Skeevers have recently evolved, as the owner of The Winking Skeever in Solitude claims that the beasts used to be smaller - enough so that they could be kept as pets.
