The Rotting King is a Darkest (Lv 6.) Bossfight that takes place in the Ruins (Was formerly in the Darkest Dungeon, but this caused game-overs for certain players in Stygian/Bloodmoon). The fight is designed to be a bit difficult, and retreating from it will require sacrificing one of your heroes. This mod was rushed a bit to release, so the balance is not fine tuned currently.

Reaching week 40 and having 4 heroes that are Lv. 6 will trigger a town event to occur. This fight is a one-room boss fight, so provisions and shovels are disabled.

Slaying the Rotting King rewards the player with 3 new trinkets that can be used as a set.
