Murins are a tiny rodent species, notably the smallest sapient species in the world. However, they’re not considered much of a proper people due to their small size, as well as being easy snacks. The constant struggles of their life include working towards making themselves known on a social level, while having to avoid being eaten by every lurking predator, including the persons of other species they’re trying to have a conversation with.

The murins are stuck at the bottom of the social and food chain amongst all other sapient species, struggling to be seen as people due to their small size and being an easy snack when caught. Thanks to their natural wiles, they know how to make sure they aren’t seen or caught first, and even if they are, their talent for persuasion is also helpful for getting out of trouble.
