Adds the Rat King subclass for Warlock. Includes new Spells, Eldritch Invocations, and Passives.
The Rat King subclass specialises in dealing Poison damage and fighting alongside its Pact Rat companion.
I would recommend choosing Pact of the Blade with this subclass. The summons from Pact of the Chain overwrite the Pact Rat, so it doesn't synergise very well with that.
