Lore question: What is a Daedrat?

Might be ZOS just made a typo, but it made me curious. There's new VR10 food called "Coldharbour Daedrat Snacks". So I was wondering, what the hell is a Daedrat?

✭✭A pun on "daedra" and "dead rat", perhaps? IDK
I wouldn't want either one as a snack, though.3 -

✭✭✭✭They're made from small game, so I'm gonna guess it's a daedric rat. Why anyone would want to eat one is beyond me.0 -
bloodenragedb14_ESO✭✭✭✭✭but......daedra are immortal......if you kill them, they are reborn within the oblivional realm they originate from......so that kinda sounds like hell for the rat.....why does that turn me on.....maybe im a sadist1 -

✭A daedric rat is what first came to mind aswell when I read it. But I googled it and couldn't find any results on the search, so I was wondering if it's really something that exists.0 -

I have a feeling this is dead-on. Like, this is a rat kebab, but it tastes as bad as a piece of daedric buttock.KhajitFurTrader wrote: »A pun on "daedra" and "dead rat", perhaps? IDK

✭✭✭✭Well, there are daedric spiders. Anyway, wouldn't a rat fit more with some plague Prince than in Coldharbor? Peryite, Namira?0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Well its daedrat SNACKS.... so it's like daedric rat kibble.What ESO really needs is an Auction Horse.
That's right... Horse.

Aetherderius✭✭✭✭✭I saw/read something about Daedrats being new monsters in the Imperial Sewers when the city comes out. And seeing as Oblivion has opened up inside the city (again), it's possible that the rats native to the sewers have been fused with Daedric power.3 -

Ah! So there are snacks made *for* them, not *from* them? Like some sort of weird pidgeon food? What if they mostly eat themselves?

You heard it here first folks, Solstheim is fake lore because Daggerfall never mentioned it!

Oh, since ESO is a part of TES, they're canon now. ES is IP of ZeniMax, they can do what they want with it. Maybe the reason we haven't seen daedrats in the other games (which all play during 3E) is because we, the heroes, wiped them all from the face of Tamriel in 2E. Yes, you can thank us later, players of Arena, Daggerfall et.al.So this is ESO lore not true TES Lore, as the term daedrat appears nowhere on TES lore sites or other sources of lore information that I can find.

Nazon_Katts✭✭✭✭✭I think the lore monks voted us out of canon a long while ago. We're in the illustrious company of Redguard and Battlespire and considered extended universe at best. =/ we've got the loriest lore master of all lores, however, so who cares but the monks?!

✭✭✭✭✭This one has mixed feelings about these daedrats. Firstly they might be like really big tasty mousies but secondly they will also be bitey and evil.
Nevermind by the time this one has exchanged greetings with them only the big and tasty bit will matter ....Shunrr's Skooma Oasis - The Movie. A housing video like no other ...

Well, maybe there isn't any TES lore about them as they're found in the Imperial city in a specific time which players have never experienced before?NA-DC-NB VR1 Ilythrian
