Roscuro

Roscuro is a good-hearted, plump rat, a kind friend to Despereaux. He spends his time in the darkest depths of the dungeon. He is drawn to light,unlike the other rats who live in darkness and hate the light

About him
Roscuro is a rat with a longing for light. Just to have some of his own, he kidnapped the Princess Pea. Despereaux goes on a quest, determined to save the princess, forcing Pea and Roscuro to exchange apologies. In the end, everyone becomes friends and they all go up to eat soup!

Personality
Roscuro is usually open and curious and said to have great manners. He is shown to be clever, as he tricks Miggery Sow. He turned cruel at one point in the movie because he had his heart broken*, like when he kidnapped the princess and when he crushed Miggery's dreams. He turned good again at the end though. He does not hesitate to save Despereaux from the other rats at the beginning of the movie.


 * When Roscuro tried to apologize to the Princess, she started screaming and throwing things at him.

Physical Appearance
Roscuro has brown fur, and big ears (not nearly as big as Despereaux ears, though), a very pointy nose, and whiskers.
