Curse of Strahd | Jane Raw's Twisted Edition

Curse of Strahd | Jane Raw's Twisted Edition

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

If you are looking for - a slightly more serious role-playing experience - a dark and gothic theme - the best online tools - immersive soundscape - a DM that loves role-playing and is not playing against you you have come to the right place. It's time to bite that garlic and venture forth! The game is Curse of Strahd with small improvements to tie the story better together and making the adventure more meaninful. In this game, the characters are a group of fresh adventurers who find themselves trapped in the land of Barovia and have no other choice but to try to defeat the tyrant of the land, vampire lord Strahd von Zarovich. The game has emphasis on role-playing. Players don't need former experience of D&D or virtual table top.

Recruiting notes

Party is on level 9 and you'll be starting on level 9 as well. We have a cleric, a monk, a warlock, a barbarian and a fighter rogue. We have been playing since the beginning of the campaign but we are now looking for a player who could get easily up to speed and enjoy the end-game with us. The party is in the Amber Temple and on a time limit. There might be around 10 sessions left.

How to prepare

You need - A good computer or a laptop with a good internet connection. - A webcam, a mic and headphones. - Discord installed and working. - Account in D&D Beyond. (no subscribtion needed)

What I provide

I will bring the Curse of Strahd module and the core rule books. I will bring my changes to the module, which make the game more meaningful and unique. I will bring the access to FoundryVTT which will be our main platform for the games. I will also bring ambient soundscape and my own voice acting.

Gameplay details

We will start (just you and me) by having about 30 minute session zero in Discord and create the characters. This will serve as session 0. We will get you situated with the online tools and I will give you instructions on how to create your character. The game will be relatively slow pace and not every session might have combat at all. I expect you to role-play your character and be satisfied with the slow pace. I also expect commitment and wish to see you at the table regularly.

Session 0

How will character creation work

The players create a 3rd level character in D&D Beyond after the session zero. I will give the players instructions on how to create the character. Multi-classing is allowed. You may only choose from the classes and races of Player's Handbook, Elemental Evil, Dungeon Master's Guide and Xanathar's Guide to Everything. I will send you a message in startplaying.games after approving your request and we can then book session 0 which we will have (just you and me) in Discord.
