A tribal rat deck.

The title of the deck is a reference to one of my favourite H.P.Lovecraft stories (it has the same title), in which the main character is tormented nightly by the sound of thousands of rats scratching at the walls. The story involves rats, madness, cannibalism and ancient horrors, so any of these will fit the deck thematically.

This deck idea has been abandoned and it's really only here for reference now.
