About the adventure
Under raging storm clouds, a lone figure stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of Castle Ravenloft. The vampire Count Strahd von Zarovich stares down a sheer cliff at the village below. A cold, bitter wind spins dead leaves about him, billowing his cape in the darkness. Lightning splits the clouds overhead, casting stark white light across him. Strahd turns to the sky, revealing the angular muscles of his face and hands. He has a look of power—and of madness. His once handsome face is contorted by a tragedy darker than the night itself. Rumbling thunder pounds the castle spires. The wind’s howling increases as Strahd turns his gaze back to the village. Far below, yet not beyond his ken, a party of adventurers has just entered his domain. Strahd’s face forms a twisted smile as his dark plan unfolds. He knew they were coming, and he knows why they have come—all according to his plan. He, the master of Ravenloft, will attend to them.

About me
Hello, thanks for clicking on me! I'm Milo (he/they), 29 and obviously love TTRPGs. I've been playing TTRPGs for well over 10+ years and DMing for 7. I got into it because fantasy has been lacking in a lot of places, and I mean to fill those spaces. First and foremost, I care about your comfort. Every person who I DM for has to fill out a checklist of likes and dislikes, along with possible triggers. If you don't want it in the game, it won't be. Secondly, I am all about fun! I want to make sure every person participating is having fun and is engaged in the story. Third, this is all about you. This is your game experience, and I'm going to make it as great as possible! I am LGBTQ+ and BIPOC friendly and open to people of all walks of life. If you want a fun, immersive game with a DM who is willing to take criticism and up for almost anything, you've come to the right place.
