How would you design a Dark Rabbitfolk race /tg/?
>>
>>82427376
I know how I'd do a one-off, but it's hard to imagine a whole race of them
>>
>>82427376
Well let's see
>ravenous rapidly-breeding ecosystem-ruining vegetarians
>place very little value on their offspring to the point that mothers will eat their children if they feel it'd be a waste of nutrients to keep raising them, or if she's just stressed enough
>constantly warring with neighbors for farmland to sate their ever-growing numbers to the point that there's basically periodic generational culling-wars where the other kingdoms put aside their differences to go rabbit-hunting for a season or two

I see them as a less autistically-traitorous or technologically-inclined version of skaven. They still scheme because they've got sprawling family lines (maybe due to their huge population booms and short individual lifespans they place a lot of importance on perpetuating the bloodline?), but they're more barbaric and less about crazy gadgets. They just settle somewhere, overfarm until its dust and their numbers are teeming, and then swarm the next patch of land to either repeat the process or get killed by its defenders. Elder matriarchs and patriarchs are revered, breeding rights are highly sought-after, your rights, such as they are, are proportional to how long you have been alive.

They are baby and child killers. The rabbitfolk know they are weak compared to other races and are easily dispatched if captured or cornered. They, however, are also great at reproduction while the other races are not, so they attack their opposition's weak spot by offing the offspring. The small frame and strong legs with padded feet make them excellent infiltration units, but given their abysmal combat prowess, killing infants and toddlers and escaping unseen is their main tactic.

hit and run guerilla warfare

raiders who take food from others

leadership must be proven every spring when they fight for choice of females. if predators or enemies try to take advantage of spring fights, females and children go after the enemies' families

will go out of their way to antagonize catfolk, kitsune and canine races

will join ratfolk rogue guilds and steal from those who are slower and therefore inferior

Neat. Reminds me of the theory that orcas were what killed of the megalodon.
The theory is that one of two things happened after it was determined both existed at the same time.
1. The orca starved the megalodon by consuming the dwindling food supply. This was the primary belief until....
2. The orcas specifically hunted megalodon babies and essentially genocided the fuckers. After analyzing how orcas send out hunting calls attracting more orcas when spotting a whale to kill with team tactics AND seeing them kill great whites to eat their liver coupled with them being smart enough to know that megalodons are a threat to them, it is more likely they holocausted the babies.

Gotta admit, a race whose Odis operandi is infantcide through stealthy means is pretty dark.

But what if we breeds and train our WIVES for the sole purpose of hunting down rabbit folk and eating them until they get nice and FAT? We'd have to actively hold back these DOGS so they don't hunt their favorite snack to extinction.
>>
>>82427376
Essentially make them Skaven, but cute. Everyone on the surface thinks they're harmless becuase they're relatively cute looking, but beneath the surface and outside of everyones eyes they're horrible monsters with forced breeding programs who will eat any vegetable they see but not farm themselves, and they constantly raid farmlands for foods, supplies, and more and aren't above murdering to get what they want.

On the opposite side I'd have Ratkin like people who are just as cute, but are misconcieved as being evil because... you know... rats. But they have a societal order that values family, kinship, and doing god works and helping one another. So the other races deal with them, but don't trust them.

I'd have to refine it a bit more but it could make for an interesting flip on stereotypical anthro race stereotypes.

If I remember correctly rabbits were viewed as symbols of purity and innocents in the middle ages and the reason that they were represented as balls out insane killers in the drolleries (the margin art in illuminated works) is because the monks thought it was funny. Same reason you had weird snails with human faces and other wacky shit. It was the equivalent of middle age shit posting and rabbits could be seen as the Pepe of their age. Kinda proves memes are older than the internet and monks were kinda proto 4channers with a bunch of inside jokes that bewildered normies. Kind of funny that basement dwelling virginal nerds have always been shit posters since ancient times.

I'm using this.
Expanding on it. Rabbitfolk encountered are very polite and friendly. They frequently are seen as helpful household servants and companions. They are using this as intelligent networks to give ideal insertion methods for the assassination teams. The child deaths are frequently poisons blamed on SIDS or other such conditions or diseases. They have a long term view and nobody suspects them despite it being very common knowledge among rabbitfolk.

Fun fact: the Acting System Engineer for the A10 Thunderbolt's laser spot tracker was a guy named Doug Winger. He was also a famous furry artist specialized in herm, macro and hyper-endowed art who was very active in the conventions and FurryMUCK scenes until ill-health forced him into retirement in the 2010s, and he died towards their end.

Gamma World had Hoops. They had a mutation that would cause metal to turn into rubber and were meant as a counter to high level, highly armored PCs. I'm pretty sure the latest versions of Gamma World got rid of that, though.

The rabbit-folk are a survival at any cost people. A rabbit will happily sacrifice someone else if it means they can live another day. Families would abandon their young as bait for a distraction to escape. A doe wouldn't hesitate to cannibalize her own kits during famine. They hold little regard for their own species because of how fast they can repopulate, and they respect other races even less.
The reasons even they have a civilized society is because the strongest of the rabbits becomes chief of their warren, and forces compliance to their will through punishments of death or worse.

Mutant Crawl Classic has a modified version of the called Tibbars who can drain power or disrupt electrical signals with their ears. It's implied they may use some of the slaves they've taken as living batteries that they drain to power all the tech they've gotten their hands on.

I'd do them like the rabbits from Albedo except maybe make them use hit and run tactics or Mao/Stalin tier human wave tactics if they were feeling confident or cocky. It can be applied to fantasy or Sci-fi.

>some lesser females split off and create their own warrens sometimes
>their biology comes with an insanely high metabolism
>large expanses of land are needed to keep up with their appetites and fecundity
>their demanding biology combined with their fecundity makes starvation alarmingly common, making them extremely militant not just with one another but with anyone whose land or goods they could want
>starvation, short life spans, and constant territorial squabbles keep their numbers down so they're mainly viewed as pests rather than an existential threat
>extremely mistrusting of outsiders, anything outside of the warren could be considered a threat
>no sense of commerce, everything is either the matriarch's or the warren's, and the notion of trading anything away is unthinkable because it's theirs and trade is the same as giving up property
>when they come across a farm, they'll yank everything out of the ground they can carry and make a point to come back until the field's stripped
>farmers take them seriously enough to form a upposse and wipe out entire warrens once one moves in close enough, furthering their distrust of outsiders
>nighttime pillages of remote hamlets has become more common, whether out of desire for revenge or to establish the area as theirs

Long Patrol hares are already the only organized military force in all of Mossflower, and half of the vermin hordes have been defeated by their intervention.

Now imagine if they didn't have strong morals and their sometimes blood-crazed rulers weren't ultimately wise and just.

Honestly, I just used the ones from WoW- which were a goblin-sized, rabbit-shaped plague of locusts.

The group didn't mind too much, we were doing a round robin at the time, the five of us taking turns doing one-shots while the DM was thinking of what to actually do next. We wound up doing a home conversion of Rise of the Runelords.
