About the adventure
'With words she called me, "brother," but when I looked into her eyes they reflected another name: “death.”' A house of noble dragons corrupted by hate A doctor cursed to destroy all that he touches An ancient general adding souls to his collection The first vampire wounded and alone, He longs for his love; to hold, to taste. Join this campaign if you love... Complex NPCs that can never fully be trusted 😈 Strong thematic gameplay exploring universal themes 🌫 Dynamic combat set to a thrilling soundtrack 🧟♂️ An open environment where creativity is always encouraged 😊 And most importantly, personalized, character-driven, immersive storytelling! ⭐️ Curse of Strahd is a classic campaign that dates back to the very beginning of Dungeons & Dragons. It is set in Barovia, a land trapped in a haunted demi-plane filled with skeletons, zombies, werewolves, vampires and other dreadful creatures. At its center is the charismatic ruler, the dread lord, and vampire, Count Strahd von Zarovich. A man that is misunderstood and crippled by his tragic past. Can you survive long enough to visit his castle? Or will you get taken by the creatures of the mist? I love running games for beginners as well as and I offer a curated experience filled with customized character-centric storytelling that adapts to the players as well as the characters. I provide everything needed to play the game. On your end, the only things you will need is a free DNDBeyond account, a free Discord account, mic, and a computer capable of running FoundryVTT. As soon as you join, I will reach out with access to the discord server as well as an email with a survey to discuss safety tools (lines, veils, x-cards, etc.) "I look forward to having you for dinner." -SvZ

About me
He/him #critter I'm a TTRPG writer, Pro GM, filmmaker, & screenwriter! I am also in the process of producing my first D&D livestream on twitch. I have a background in theater, roleplaying, improv, and creative writing. I thoroughly enjoy playing/teaching new players but also like to throw down with the D&D vets out there. I craft each module around the player characters at the table so I offer a fair amount of homebrew. My goal is to always offer a unique experience that caters well to the heroes at the story center so that each tale feels original and authentic.

Creating your character
Characters will start at level one but will be leveled up quickly during the first few levels, as it is often the most challenging level to survive. I will reach out to each player individually about character creation and the discord will have more specifics as to what content will be used. Everyone is encouraged to come prepared with as much backstory or character creation as they like but we will also take time during session zero to build bonds and help fine-tune character ideas (discuss classes, races, backgrounds, etc.).
Saturdays 6pm. Give me a ping on the discord once you join and I'll get you all the prep materials. Ongoing campaign but still very early on in the story. Explore the mist of Barovia with us! Current party composition: Vengeance Paladin, Grave Domain Cleric, Aberrant Mind Sorcerer, Gloom Stalker Ranger & Moon Druid

How Ryne creates a safe table
We will go over safety tools during our session zero as well as the preemptive survey. I will also check in periodically throughout the campaign to make sure everyone is comfortable. We will also use private messaging through Discord in case anyone is ever uncomfortable with any of the content during the session.
