Curiosity has its dangers, as Jack investigates some of the town's curious characters, Sutton tries to avoid being investigated herself, and Robert takes Nathaniel into a Bolera that's getting more and more unpredictable. Things are changing, and only time will tell if it's for the better.

The Rotting Tongue is a tale of folk horror spiraling around the strange entities living in a town called Husk. At the center is a girl who keeps dying, the scion of a fading town, a man without a heart, the missing half of a shattered whole, and a woman chasing after the unknown. #ttrpgs #MoTW

We didn't know what to expect, what started as just a way to record our game became a community. So thank you all!
