A [[RA2]] modder who made many components including weapons and wheels. He is one of the three original creators of the [[DSL-TC]] mod and created most all the parts and stock bots of the [[DSL-TC]] mod.


[[DarkRat]] is the D in [[DSL]] ([[DarkRat]]-[[Starcore]]-[[Lu-Tze]])


In the spring of 2004 [[DarkRat]], [[Starcore]] and [[Lu-Tze]] had reached the point where they had considered leaving [[RA2]]. [[DarkRat]] was the premier replica bot creator and parts creator, [[Lu-tze]] the innovative parts and arena maker, and [[Starcore]] the to AIer of the community having just released the [[Starcore]] V2 pack. As a swan song [[Starcore]] brought the three of them together to do a final release. To wrap an ultimate pack around [[DarkRat]]'s ultra cool replicas of Real Life robots. Most of [[DarkRat]]'s bot at the time were only picture bots. [[Starcore]] with some help from [[ACAMS]] and a few others populated the internals of the replicas and [[Starcore]] AIed all the replicas to be the 'Stock' bots of the [[DSL]] pack. [[DarkRat]] continued building an extensive range of parts while [[Lu-Tze]] in her final months built most all the arenas of the [[DSL]] Total Conversion Mod. The team innovated left and right and worked with the rivaling forums bringing them together to work on more realistic parts and standards for the [[DSL]] pack. 

[[DarkRat]] accelerated the production schedule of the [[DSL]] so that [[Lu-Tze]] could see it completed before she died. She even pulled together in her litteral final days with splitting migraines to fix a release issue so that the [[DSL]] mod pack would work with the download version of [[RA2]].

Without [[DarkRat]] the [[DSL-TC]] mod pack might never have been finished and it was because of [[Starcore]] wanting to see his gorgeous replicas working and showcased that the [[DSL-TC]] mod was ever started. 

The [[RA2]] community owes a deep debt of thanks to [[DarkRat]].
