The bears are going to have their paws full...

That poor fella has to be either a decoy or bait.

And what happened to everyone's eye colour?

He's ... a human wearing a rat costume? He's got a shirt on under his fur crop-top (is that rat fur?!), and the tail seems to be attached to that, and I think he's got close-fitting shoes (same color/stuff as the tail?) on rather than having bare feet, as his ankles are a different shade. Was he hiding behind the rock the clank tapped, or under it? It seems to be in a different orientation in the fifth panel than in the fourth.

It looks to me as though he was hiding under the rock-like thing. And that he's wearing a very tattered giant rat skin.

Speculation on FB is that he's a survivor of a previous crash, and he's survived by managing somehow to kill a rat and pretending to be one of them.

If so, how astonishingly lucky for the party that he's the first being they found.

How rare to get a GG character who isn't a badass.

From:

kelkyag

If the speculation

elmegil mentioned above is anything like correct, he's a badass at survival, stealth, and/or disguise. Not all characters are *combat* badasses -- people have specialties. (And some people are lower overall power than others -- see, say, the circus, and the townfolk they entertain.)

The screaming is odd if he's an expert at survival. It seems contrived, as if he's trying to distract their attention from something else. Agatha said, "If you want people to believe what they see, show them what they want to believe." Monahan may know the same trick.
