Lousy

I don't think "lousy" is the best word to use in the note about Roller and Tarn.

According to Google it can be used as a synonym for "teeming" but only if the thing there is a lot of is regarded as undesirable (this is an extention of its original meaning, infested with lice). The other meanings of "lousy" are probably better known (I've never seen it in this context).

"Teeming" is only one possible replacement but it only has one meaning, the right one for the context.
