Also known as: slug_cat
The playable character species of the game Rain World.
Salient qualities are smooth, mostly monochromatic skin, Solid Eyes, a thick tail, and the ability to use simple tools.
The base game has three different playable slugcats:
- Survivor (Rain World) (white) - Default
- Monk (Rain World) (yellow) - Easy Mode
- Hunter (Rain World) (pink) - Hard Mode. Has Scars over his body, and can carry a spear on its back.
The "Downpour" DLC adds five more playable slugcats, all with unique campaigns, plus one secret slugcat.
- Artificer (Rain World) (maroon) - Pyrotechnic master, hates Scavenger (Rain World)s.
- Gourmand (Rain World) (orange) - A more... rotund slugcat than most.
- Spearmaster (Rain World) (purple, with white spots on tail) - Can produce spears. Has a bigger tail and No Mouth.
- Rivulet (Rain World) (light blue) - Has Axolotl Ears. Runs and swims extremely fast.
- Saint (Rain World) (green) - Nonviolent, vegetarian, the only slugcat with Fur.
- Inv (Rain World) (black / blue) - Secret slugcat. More or less a joke, as their campaign contains various Fourth Wall breaking elements and the difficulty is ramped to absurd levels. On the plus side, they start with a Singularity Bomb (Rain World).
The "Watcher" DLC adds the titular slugcat:
- Watcher (Rain World) (navy blue) - Sometimes surronded by Aura
