Are rats -3 to hit?  What about Halflings with a high dex and no armor?

SLINKERS
   These strange little creatures look something like a cross between a rat
and a monkey.  They live both in forests and underground.  A slinker has ST
2, DX 14, IQ 6, and MA 14.  Thear are attracted to bright things, and try to
steal them; a slinker den may have real treasure!  One or more slinkers may
also jump onto a person and try to grab at a small, bright object; if the
slinker makes his DX roll, he gets the object.  Treat this as an attack for
melee purposes; therefore, you will have a chance to kill the slinker before
it can run away.  However, slinkers are hard to hit . . . -3 DX to strike at
one.  A slinker might be able to grab a necklace or a dagger, or jeweled
ornament; it would not be able to carry off a weapon, or steal a ring except
from an unconscious person.
   Slinkers fight as do cats, but only when cornered or defending their
young.  A baby slinker is worth up to $800 because it can be taught amusing
tricks . . . such as entering the windows and opening doors from the inside.
  Many thieves have pet slinkers!
