The Salt in Wounds Campaign Setting is a kickstarter funded game world for 5th Edition and Pathfinder rulesets spanning a multiple supplements and publications. The evil mega-city is fed and powered by the endless butchery of the unkillable Tarrasque creating a bizarre, alien, but oh so believable weird fantasy. The sprawling gritty, bloody, intrigue soaked streets are the perfect place for GMs and alike Players to create adventure.

Salt in Wounds is the most imaginative role-playing game setting it’s been my privilege to play in a long time. Equal parts grotesque and delightful, what J.M. Perkins has created here is masterfully realized and intriguingly believable. I highly recommend a visit to the city of Salt in Wounds -if you have a strong stomach, a love of fantastic world building, and a taste for the bizarre. In a plethora of game settings, this one stands out.
