"Braised. Boiled. Charred. Skewered. Sprats are good eating, friend,"

Sprats are a rat-like creature found across every human colony world.[1] Sprat is an abbreviated contraction of Space Rat.[2]

Biology[]

Sprats are small, gecko-like creatures that are often treated as vermin by the residents of the Halcyon Colony, to the point that mechanical sentries have been deployed in the sewers beneath Byzantium to exterminate them. They can be found in settlements and camps across Terra 2, Monarch and even remote asteroids like Gorgon. They are also present onboard vessels like Groundbreaker.
Sprats are known to sometimes mutate into Mega Sprats, a Mega version of sprat that is larger and has considerably higher stats than its smaller cousins. Named versions of Mega Sprats can be found throughout the game, and a possible spawn location for an unnamed Mega Sprat is underneath the Edgewater Landing Pad.

Sprats are voracious omnivores and are known to occasionally attack humans if there are enough sprats to swarm.[3]

Additional Information[]

  • Sprat meat is used as a source of nutrition. According to Ethel Gaibler, sprat meat is plenty tasty when properly prepared: ground up in sausages and terra-fried in their own juices.
  • Bertrand, with a blessing from Catherine Malin[4], oversees an animal rescue service in Fallbrook. He is responsible for spaying and feeding sprats under his care and he didn't hesitate to capture and save sprats Nelson Mayson was using to smuggle drugs.[5]
  • During Spratkings it is revealed that sprats possess extremely fast metabolism. [6]
