About the adventure

Beneath a moonless sky, you stand on weathered cobblestones, enveloped in a thick, swirling mist. The air is laden with an unsettling stillness, broken only by distant, mournful wails. Before you rises a desolate village, its timeworn buildings bearing witness to untold years of despair. This is Barovia, a land trapped in eternal twilight, ruled by Count Strahd von Zarovich, an ancient and malevolent vampire lord. His castle looms in the distance, a dark sentinel over this cursed realm. Yet, amid the shadows, a glimmer of hope flickers. It is said that heroes like yourselves hold the key to breaking Strahd's grip on this land. Will you answer the call and face the horrors that await? The fate of Barovia hangs in the balance, and the choice is yours: to become its saviors, or succumb to the unyielding darkness. Brave adventurers, the stage is set. Your journey into the heart of darkness begins now. Gather any allies you can find and hope that together you can survive the longs nights ahead. Make no mistake, Death is coming. Give him hell when he does...

About me

Greetings Adventurers! Thanks for stopping by. My name is Adam West and I come from Ireland 🇮🇪. I have been a Dungeon Master for over 15 years and a D&D player for even longer. I have run many long term campaigns over the years including: Out of the Abyss, Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus, and Curse of Strahd. I also have my own home-brew game - The Quest Guild! A mission based adventure set in the Guild City of Bikanor. Each session the group chooses a quest from the mission board and heads off for adventure. I love a good game and I love a good gaming group. The day isn't going to save itself Adventurer! Lets roll!

Character creation

Creating your character

Pre-made characters are welcome once they have been cleared with GM, otherwise character creation will happen before session 1. Characters will be level 1 at the beginning of the game. Pen and paper character sheets in hand are welcome but digital characters can also be created in D&D Beyond. I have several pre-made characters available for players who want to jump straight into the game.

The current party

$12 per session The campaign will start at level 1. Sessions last about 3 hours with a break in between.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

A mic is necessary, and a webcam is preferred. Players will need a free Roll20 account to join this game. New players are welcome and any question can be asked in Session 0 or they can learn the rules as the game progresses. Digital dice will be used on Roll20. Players are encouraged to have a print out of their character sheet on hand, though if this is unavailable, digital character sheets are fine.

What QuestForger brings to the table

I will provide all necessary gaming equipment on Roll20 and character creation tools on D&DBeyond. The only thing that players will need to have on hand are their character sheets. In session 1 the players will choose a character token from my Roll20 library to represent them on the digital battle maps.
