- — Folio Bruti on the plague rat[src]
The Plague Rat was a species of rat, with a bite that could spread the plague, a highly contagious and deadly disease.[1][2] Plague rats had dark[2] or sickly greenish fur.[1] The Plague Rat was most resistant to the Fire-Making Spell,[1] the Severing Charm and the Freezing Spell,[2] but it was vulnerable to most other spells, particularly Red Sparks.[1]
