Sootwyn Barrow - Everything Bundle

You've been stricken with the Sootwyn Stain, a curse that afflicts any who cross through the Unsanguine Gate into the haunted town. Those with the stain are technically immortal, but they are gradually sapped of their lifeforce. Victims slowly lose their skin, their muscles, their humanity, and their soul. Eventually, all that's left is a skeletal wretch in the employ of a wicked sorceress. Until then, however, you cannot die. Can you use that strange magical twist to find a way to u...
