{{name|caps}} is an [[illness]] that causes the tongue to rot away. It begins as a {{#var:name2}}, which after a week or so will fully develop into {{name}}. It can be contracted by drinking, cooking with, or falling into {{favilink|black ooze}}. Many creatures that are made of or use {{favilink|black ooze}} as a form of attack can also make the player character contract a {{#var:name2}}, such as {{favilink|black jell|plural}}, {{favilink|sewage eel|plural}} tripping the player character into a puddle of it, or {{favilink|Slog of the Cloaca}} spewing the liquid.

Every [[Calendar|day]] after the initial contraction (1,200 turns), a [[toughness]] save with difficulty 13 will be rolled, or a check to see if 1d20+Toughness Modifier > 13. If this is the case, the stage of {{name}} decreases by one. A +3 bonus can be added to the save (making the save target effectively 10 instead) by either drinking {{favilink|honey}} or eating or cooking with a {{favilink|yuckwheat stem}}. These bonuses cannot stack.

Else, this cycle will continue until the {{name}} stage is equal to or greater than 3, or a total of 5 or more days have passed, the {{#var:name2}} will progress into stage 2 {{qud text|&Kgl&ro&Rt&rr&Kot&y|notxml}}.

For improving save chance, see [[Illness#Increasing Save Chance]].
Outside of willingly consuming black goo, the only ways of getting glotrot are from specific enemies. Black jells will only give glotrot in melee. The times that a player falls into black goo can be mitigated by revealing sewage eels before stepping into it, evaporating the goo, or avoiding stepping on black goo entirely.
