Ratilla was the ancestor of Ratar-O and one of the first leaders of the Rats.
History[]
After Mumm-Ra's Black Pyramid spaceship crashed on Third Earth, all of his surviving animal slaves settled on their new home planet. While species such as the Cats thrived and prospered for generations thanks to the War Stone, the Rats lived off the other animal's leftovers, feeding off scraps in the swamp-lands, barely surviving.
One fateful day, Ratilla, leader of the Rats, while search for food in the swamps, swam down to the bottom and soon came upon the Sword of Plun-Darr and the Gauntlet of Plun-Darr, a discovery that would change the destiny of the Rats forever. Armed with these powerful weapons, the Rats rose to prominence, taking what they thought was rightfully theirs by any means necessary.
Seeing Ratilla's blatant abuse of power, the ThunderCats sent the wizard Jaga to put an end to Ratilla's reign of terror. Ratilla faced Jaga, armed with the Sword of Plun-Darr clashed against Jaga's own Sword of Omens and powerful magic. However, despite his efforts, Ratilla was defeated by Jaga, annihilated by the Sword of Omen's power. To keep the Sword of Plun-Darr out of evil's hands, Jaga put a curse on it and plunged it into the earth, allowing a mountain to grow over it like a scar, burying it forever.
