Personal history:
When she was discovered in one of the abandoned areas, Odd was the only one of her litter mates to still be living. The nest she was discovered in was situated within an open cage labelled Cuscomys ashaninka. The rats who discovered her took her back and raised her. She tried to fit in with the others, taking up the role of an apprentice alchemist. However as she aged, her reclusive tendencies, and her size, isolated her from the other rats. Eventually Odd moved up into the pipe work, creeping down at night to gather supplies, and to also teach herself alchemy in the hopes of shrinking her size down to that of the ordinary rats. As of this day, she has not succeeded in this and becomes more and more reclusive, rarely seen by anyone.

Reasons for species to be in the facility:
It is thought that the Chinchilla Tree Rat was being kept in the facility for conservation purposes. Very little is known about this species. It is a rare discovery due to the fact that it is as large as a cat. It has sturdy legs and is identified by the white stripe on its nose and head. It is similar to the chinchilla rats that were buried with the Incas.

(I will admit, I had to guess as to how the lower half of the body of this species goes. The only photographs I could find were of its head and forelegs. I did go by descriptions and also from similar species of chinchilla rat. It is a completely real species of mammal and in my opinion, just adorable. I hope more information on this species comes to light in the near future)
