The Sinking City 2 - Characters
The Sinking City 2 is a standalone story rather than a continuation of Charles Reed's case in Oakmont. Frogwares built the sequel around a new lead, the occult adventurer Calvin Rafferty, whose failed expedition and the people lost in it drive the campaign into the flooded streets of 1920s Arkham.
