About the adventure
Full Campaign - Levels 1 to 10 Under raging storm clouds, the vampire Count Strahd von Zarovich stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of Castle Ravenloft. Rumbling thunder pounds the castle spires. The wind’s howling increases as he turns his gaze down toward the village of Barovia. Far below, yet not beyond his keen eyesight, a party of adventurers has just entered his domain. Strahd’s face forms the barest hint of a smile as his dark plan unfolds. He knew they were coming, and he knows why they came—all according to his plan. A lightning flash rips through the darkness, but Strahd is gone. Only the howling of the wind fills the midnight air. The master of Castle Ravenloft is having guests for dinner. And you are invited.

How to prepare
- Players are required to have a mic and preferably a webcam as well. I prefer for us to all see each other. - Players should be familiar with the general rules for player characters in dnd 5th edition. - Players will need to have a free Roll20 account and Discord. More details will be shared on Discord once you join.
What I provide
Players can expect: - A lot of love, prep and detail put into every session - Elaborate character creation and top-notch roleplaying, accents, voices and theatrics - Unique and out-of-the-ordinary fantasy locations, creatures and items - A lot of player agency and your backstory weave into the forefront of the story - Interactive battle maps and tokens. - Artboards for locations, items and NPCs - Music and sound effects. - Custom player tokens
Gameplay details
- Session 0 and character creation will be done over group and private chat on discord - Players can expect to follow all the rules as written for the 5th edition. - However, in the event that no one at the table is entirely sure of the exact rule for a situation, I will generally come up with what makes thematic sense at the moment, rather than waste a lot of time looking for the specific rule. - I am also very open to the "rule of cool", especially in regards to players using tools, terrain and environment in creative ways. - I like to speed up combat by using the "on-deck" method, i.e players being prepped for their turn ahead of time. - Combat in my games is also story-driven, as such the descriptions of spells and fighting are colourful and there are often extra elements (terrain, weather, magical effects, traps, time-crunch etc.) that form part of combat encounters. - Most of all, creativity will always be rewarded and fun is always the main goal.

How will character creation work
- I will discuss the world, setting, lore and character possibilities privately with each player on Discord. After which, you will have enough info to go off and create a character. - The adventure will start at level 1. Players are free to create characters on any platform, as long as you can send me a character sheet in some form. I highly recommend the app; Fight Club 5 by Lion's Den. - I am more than happy to help anyone with character creation if they need it.
