You've come upon a wall of text.
I’d put it at like 2 or 3 lines of text not counting keywords
Roll six for reading comprehension.
I read the wall of text. What do I learn?
Roll for intelligence with disadvantage
min(3,9) = 3
:(
You try to read the wall of text, but it's written in a handwriting you have a lot of trouble deciphering.
You believe that it says that the pandemic caused people to stutter and that a bard was able to cure that stuttering by singing a spell of "Silence". And that the bard eats goblins all day.
Honestly, it would've been better for me if OP shared the text instead of a (slightly blurry) screenshot.
Stories like these are why I love the ttrpg community. No question of does she belong in the hobby, just "how can we make her feel comfortable joining the party?". Being cursed to only sing is also a perfect backstory for a bard.
That's lovely!
That's awesome. A certain bat eating musician has a similar condition. Speaks with an impediment but can sing perfectly well, because it uses another part of the brain! Or something. This is a Lemmy comment, not an academic paper.
Has he always had speech issues? I figured it was a side effect of the excessive substance abuse.

Is this person famous? Should I know who they are?
Ozzy Osbourne
Oh yeah! The guy from Wizard of Oz!
I think Ozzy is a good example of this, though maybe not as extreme as Silent.
Ed Sheeran, Elvis Presley, Miss Montreal, Noel Gallagher, they all stutter when speaking but not when singing.
Already knew about this thanks to Piers Anthony :>
Neat! Others have mentioned similar events in this thread, but no one has yet mentioned ‘wielding a red sword’ which is a book in the incarnations of immortality series by piers Anthony. War himself is afflicted in the same fashion and sings to communicate. Oh and get your mind out of the gutter.
Really good series.
Holy shit! An incarnations reference in the wild! Anthony's best work, imo.
As I was reading this, I thought the girlfriend was going to end up playing a Kenku, being able to role play and handle her issue that way
