About the adventure
Welcome to Curse of Strahd: Reloaded, a thrilling adventure where darkness reigns and every shadow holds a secret. Set in the gothic land of Barovia, players will navigate a world of fog-shrouded villages, haunted castles, and twisted forests under the ever-watchful eyes of it's vampire lord, Count Strahd von Zarovich. This campaign, reimagined by DragnaCarta, is a blend of horror, mystery, and high-stakes heroism where your choices shape the fate of a land trapped in eternal twilight. Will you rise as the heroes who finally bring an end to Strahd's reign, or will the mists of Barovia consume you? Dare to enter... if you seek a tale of courage, cunning, and terror! 🖤 Using 2024 rules

About me
Hey there! I'm a passionate Dungeon Master with over five years of experience bringing the world of Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition to life—exclusively online. Since December 2019, I've been rolling dice and by June 2020 I stepped into the DM seat where I found my true passion in crafting a meaningful story with my friends. In that time, I’ve learned what works best for me and, more importantly, what makes my players feel truly immersed in the world we build together. My focus is on crafting a collaborative, story-rich environment where characters feel real, choices have weight, and everyone gets their moment to shine. Whether it's through rich role-playing, dynamic combat encounters, or mysteries waiting to be unraveled, I strive to make every session memorable.

Safety
How Loserella (Sydney) creates a safe table
✦ Session 0 provided prior to the campaign. There we will discuss the setting and its tone, guidelines for character creation, and meet each other! ✦ DM will send out an RPG Consent Checklist for each player to fill out. There, they can indicate themes/topics that make them uncomfortable or downright do not want to see. The DM will make notes on anything that is indicated and will routinely reference that whilst prepping for upcoming sessions. This is a living document, so if you need to add or takeaway things mid campaign that is totally fine and encouraged! ✦ DM's notifications are never on silent in case a player needs to urgently message me for any reason during the session. ✦ Every session will have a 5-10min break.
