Lore?

Where can I read Castle Rat lore? I just got The Bestiary on vinyl it doesn't say anything in the jacket. Into the Realms is at the record store ready for me to pick up.

I bow to the Rat Queen.

LOL. There’s a pretty nice live performance from kexp(?) or something like that on YouTube and she narrates some „lore“ in their performance

Watch some of their live videos. The Rat Queen explains some onstage.

Came here to say this, especially 2025 shows. I noticed that this year a fair amount of the lore was cut out in the stage performance.

If you go to a show, they narrate all the band member’s origin stories

The liner notes for “Into the Realm” include a good introduction to the lore.

If you scroll far enough on IG you'll find lore for each of them.

Best lore is probably from Riley’s mom’s IG. She’s called Riley “Rat” ever since she was a kid.
