The Rabbit Team is an external group of mercenaries who suppress dangerous entities, including Abnormalities and Ordeals. The unit primarily featured in-game is the Fourth Pack, commanded by Myo. They can be contracted after selecting their research in the Disciplinary Team. The player can call for the Rabbit Team by clicking the square button next to the Bullets Bar.
Members of the Rabbit Team wear black and orange armored clothing and gas masks. Their masks are shaped similarly to the head of a rabbit, including long, rabbit-like ears and glass circles over their eyes. The ears are black on the outside with orange interior. The eye design varies between members.
To call the Rabbit Team, the player must click the button with the Rabbit symbol, located next to the Bullets tab. Afterwards, the main menu of the 'Rabbit Protocol' will appear on the screen. It displays the map of the current facility, showing any departments unlocked at the moment and the number of hostile entities in the department. It has a manual at the left side of the window and on the right a caution message, as well as cost at the top right corner. The player must select at least 1 department to be able to call the Rabbit Team. After selection, the message will 'Rabbit Protocol' will flash on-screen.
Facility Map: The player can view a map of the current unlocked departments, including the number of Agents, Clerks, and hostile entities (such as Ordeals, Abnormalities, and their sub-entities) that are in each department. The player must select at least 1 department before calling the Rabbits.
Cost: The player can select up to 4 fully unlocked departments, and each selection increases the cost of the call by 25% of the energy collected during the day, up to 100% of the collected energy. The Central Command Team counts as 2 selections, with a 50% energy cost.
Manual and Caution: Lists information regarding the Rabbit Protocol, including the following:
The Rabbit Protocol can only be called once per day.
The minimum requirement to use the Rabbit Protocol in a department is Level 4 Expansion.
The Rabbits spawn in 8 group of 4 members across the indicated areas. A maximum of 32 Rabbits can be called at once.
The Rabbits will appear randomly in the hallways or rooms of the selected departments. Once all the entities in a department are neutralized, the Rabbit Team will withdraw.
The departments where the Rabbits were called into will be sealed and highlighted in orange. All the exits from the departments will teleport any entities attempting to leave to another area in the same department. Entities outside of the department can still enter the containment zone, but will also be unable to exit.
This does not affect teleporting entities such as Alriune. Entities which teleport after reaching an exit such as The Dreaming Current or The King of Greed, or have a "charge" attack that exits a department, remain stuck in their movement animation while attempting to leave. This may lead to a bug where they enter areas they normally cannot.
All the employees in the selected departments will instantly panic. Additionally, until the Rabbits leave a department, the player will be unable to remove employees or perform tasks with the Abnormalities in that department.
Rabbits Info & Behavior
The Rabbits spawn in groups of 4 members while the Protocol begins. All of them are Level 4, with 150 HP and 150 SP, but cannot receive large amounts of damage. They die immediately upon reaching 0 SP instead of panicking. The Bullets and healing from the Main Rooms do not affect them.
The player cannot control the Rabbits. They will roam the departments they were called into and attack any entities they encounter, including hostile entities and employees. They can also detect entities that employees cannot, such as Dimensional Refraction Variant.
They have 2 type of weapons: Melee Blades and Ranged Automatic Rifles. Each Rabbit does a different type of damage, which is marked on their weapons. The Melee weapon will have a 70% chance of dealing 17-19 or a 30% chance of dealing 5-7 of their respective damage type. When standing at long range they will fire their gun every 0.22 seconds, dealing 2-3 damage. They will continue firing for 4.4 seconds before reloading.
If a Rabbit attempts to exit the department they were deployed to, they will be teleported to another location in the same department. However, the Rabbits will sometimes leave the department and move to rooms adjacent to the department, including elevators and other main rooms, and attack any entities located there, such as employees.
If all the Rabbits in the same department are killed, or if all hostile entities in that department have been suppressed, then that zone will be unsealed. The Protocol ends all departments have been unsealed.
Their defenses are the following: RED: Endured (0.6) – WHITE: Endured (0.6) – BLACK: Endured (0.6) – PALE: Endured (0.6)
Flavor Text
Protocol Start
"Just leave it to the Rabbits."
"The Rabbits have come to graze the grass."
"Hippity hop~ It’s time for the Rabbits to graze some fresh grass."
(During Gebura's Core Suppression) "Cock up your ears, Rabbits. That bitch over there is the Red Mist."
(During Binah's Core Suppression) "She isn’t actually an Arbiter, is she? If she is, please keep in mind that this goes against our contract."
50% of the Rabbit Units eliminated
"Half of the Rabbits have returned to the grasslands."
"Half of the Rabbit Team’s wiped out. Not gonna lie, the monsters in this place are a goddamn nuisance."
"Welp, that half of the Rabbits was ready to die. This amount of death is mostly seen in missions exploring the Outskirts or clearing through the Ruins."
(During Gebura's Core Suppression) "Got half of the Rabbits eliminated. Still have some skills left in you, huh?"
(During Binah's Core Suppression) "Guess she isn’t a real Arbiter after all. But she does seem to be using some Singularities?"
80% of Rabbit Units eliminated
"80% forever out of commission. Missions in the Outskirts would be more profitable than this."
"80% of my Rabbit Team gone for good. Who was the madman that thought keeping these monsters in the city instead of beyond the Outskirts was a good idea?"
(During Gebura's Core Suppression) "80% dead by her hand. She puts up a tough fight, what a monster. Though she’s still not nearly as good as she used to be."
(During Binah's Core Suppression) "Fairy and Key, what annoying powers… And they’re weakened too!"
All Rabbit Units eliminated
"All the Rabbits are wiped out. Sigh… Good luck with the rest of the situation."
"The whole Rabbit Team has returned to the grasslands. This mission has failed."
"They’re all dead. I’d rather take on expeditions to the Outskirts or the Ruins than be involved in this place."
(During Gebura's Core Suppression) "The Red Mist… Oh, I’ll tear you a new one with my own hands someday…"
(During Binah's Core Suppression) "I’m sure you were aware things would go this way. We’re pulling out now."
Completion
"Thank you for the meal, it was satisfying."
"Call us again sometime, all we need is some grass."
"If I could, I would have participated directly myself."
"The mission is complete. We’ll now forget everything that has occurred here."
(During Gebura's Core Suppression) "Thanks to that strange body of yours, Red Mist, your strength is much greater than before. Though your expertise seems to have rusted."
(During Binah's Core Suppression) "I never thought the day would come where we could defeat an Arbiter."
Protocol Start
"The Rabbits have come to graze the grass."
"Commencing assignment."
"Uproot the field."
"Gnaw it all away."
Encountering a clerk
"How unlucky you must be."
"You’re forsaken by this company."
"Another to purify."
Encountering an agent
"Even if you wield a fancy weapon, it will be just grass to the Rabbits."
"You and I are fundamentally different."
"At least your weapon seems useful."
"Another to eliminate."
"Seems you have some good equipment."
Encountering a TETH level threat
"Risk level low."
"Removing target immediately."
"This is barely a warm-up."
Encountering a HE level threat
"Risk level moderate."
"Just like dealing with those kids from the Backstreets."
"What weird monsters."
"There are tons of creatures like this scattered around in the Ruins."
"We could work up a bit of sweat with this one."
Encountering a WAW level threat
"Risk level high."
"It’s been a while since we fought a target as dangerous as this."
"Did they bring these things from the Outskirts or something?"
"Why not use these things in the Wing Wars?"
"God, this place is crazy."
Encountering an ALEPH level threat
"Maximum risk level."
"Just what the hell is this place?"
"I don’t think something like this can be handled by just us Rabbits alone."
"They’re mad to use beings from beyond the Outskirts."

Trivia
Besides the Rabbits, Myo has mentioned the "Rhinoceros" and "Reindeer" units. Both would have caused collateral damage that would've been too much for Lobotomy to handle, so only the Rabbit Team was sent.
Both of these teams are featured in Library of Ruina and Limbus Company.
The Rabbit Protocol menu shows the amount of hostile entities present in each department, including ones that cannot be normally detected, such as Meat Lantern or Dimensional Refraction Variant.
The Rabbit Team is reminiscent of the Mobile Task Forces of the SCP Foundation. In particular, they serve a similar function to that of Mobile Task Force Epsilon-11 (Nine-Tailed Fox), a team of elite operatives which is deployed in the event that an SCP site is compromised.
Notably, the Rabbit Team shares a similar color scheme to the Nine-Tailed Fox members from SCP: Containment Breach.
Sometimes, the Rabbits will lose their target when a unit passes through a door. When this happens, the rabbits will choose to leave directly and lift the blockade — this has been confirmed to be a design flaw of the game.
Sometimes, the Rabbits will leave the designated blocked department and attack any unit that appears along the way. This phenomenon is prone to occur in the Central Command Team and Architecture Team (in Challenge Mode), and has been confirmed to be a bug.
