The Verminator was put into a wagon and sent to the capital for study by the School of Engineering and Warfare. They were quite surprised and delighted when they hooked up power to the head and an assortment of squeaking and profanity emerged.

The corpse of Ubermaus remained, unlike most monsters. After some discussion, Ozzy and some of the workers picked up the massive corpse and hauled it off. It was skinned and then butchered. Joh and Cham claimed the skull as a trophy for their bar. The hide was turned into a massive rug. Ozzy cut up the meat and turned it into sausages. A lot of sausages. The bones were put in a pile to be ground up into fertilizer, but surprisingly, disappeared one night.

It was as Ozzy was finishing up the carcass that he received a notification.

You are a terrible monster!

When rat-kin mothers tell stories to their broods at night, they terrify them with stories about you. "Never leave the dungeon, my little rats, or the Butcher will get you! He'll light you on fire, cut you up, and turn you into sausage!"

When sentries fall asleep at their posts, sergeants slap them awake and say, "And what if I had been the Butcher! You'd be dead and your corpse would be hanging in his smokehouse!"

Any rat-kin that slays you will receive double EP, and extra cheese with their dinner for a year!

Bennie the Necrobunny kept his troops near the meadow of the fat rabbits and killed any of the rat-kin that ran that way. He had no desire to fight paladins or the Legion. As the war ended, he took his troops into the Bunny Burrow and easily overwhelmed the guards at the entrance. Fat rabbits died by the dozens. Mayor Burpicus deployed his big-boned rabbits, and his stout rabbits, but they were outnumbered five to one. And every rabbit that fell rose again as a zombie under Bennie's control.

Eventually it was just the Mayor and Bennie. Burpicus demanded single combat between them. Bennied just laughed and sent his bodyguard to kill the mayor. Evil Necromancers didn't give their enemies a sporting chance. He had a reputation to build. After he had consolidated his conquest, he left his troops and traveled alone deep into the burrow until it led to an entrance to Under Rodent's Lair.

No one knows what happened after the Necrobunny approached her throne. She demanded all but Bennie leave. The two talked long into the night. At the end, Bennie kneeled and groveled and she was pleased with his obedience. He returned to the burrow, now officially his own realm. The residents of Sedgewick and the Hollywood were surprised when a notification was given to all of them.
