About the adventure
-Session Zero is free- "šš³š¦ š®š°šÆš“šµš¦š³š“ š£š°š³šÆ? šš³ š¢š³š¦ šµš©š¦šŗ š®š¢š„š¦?" š ššš«š¤ šš§š š¢š¦š¦šš«š¬š¢šÆš šš±š©šš«š¢šš§šš ššš¬š¢š š§šš ššØš« š©š„šš²šš«š¬ š°š”šØ šš«ššÆš šš”š šš”š«š¢š„š„ šØš š šØšš”š¢š š”šØš«š«šØš«. Set in the mist-shrouded land of Barovia, a place both beautiful and bleak. Explore haunted villages, eerie forests, and the imposing Castle Ravenloft. Here, Lord Strahd von Zarovich rules with a sinister charm, exerting her will over the land's fearful inhabitants. Every whispered legend points back to Strahd, who becomes as much an obsession as an adversary. You must brave the unknown, face terrifying foes, and unravel a centuries-old curse. šš®š«š¬š šØš ššš«šš”š š¢š¬ šš§ š¢š§šÆš¢šššš¢šØš§ ššØ š š°šØš«š„š š°š”šš«š ššÆšš«š² šš”šØš¢šš ššØš®š„š šš š²šØš®š« š„šš¬š, šš§š ššÆšš§ š”šØš©š š¢šš¬šš„š šššš„š¬ š”šš®š§ššš. And with the She Is The Ancient revision, you can expect a modernized version that re-imagines Strahd as a woman. This sweeping revision is more than a simple genderswap, as the SITA revision expands and revises the entirety of the adventure to encompass an entire new depth to the original. šš”š¢š¬ ššš¦š©šš¢š š§ š©š«šØš¦š¢š¬šš¬ š š£šØš®š«š§šš² š®š§š„š¢š¤š šš§š² šØšš”šš«āšØš§š šš”šš ššš„šš§ššš¬ š”šš«šØš¢š¬š¦ š°š¢šš” š”šØš«š«šØš«, š”šØš©š š°š¢šš” šš«ššš, šš§š š„šššÆšš¬ š¢šš¬ š¦šš«š¤ š„šØš§š ššššš« šš”š šš¢š§šš„ šš§ššØš®š§ššš«.

How to prepare
Upon signing up for this campaign, there will be a link to join a Discord server. Further information will be located within the contents of the server. I will also reach out to you personally to ensure your onboarding goes well. Hardware wise, Players only need a working mic and a stable internet connection.
What I provide
I have a map for every single location in the module, as well as many off-book locations. Along with a compelling performance and voices, my personalized Foundry VTT software will take care of everything else. I will walk you through any technical learning you may need. I tend to stick to Rules as Written so players know what to expect. This is also a "No Stupid Questions" table. Ask anything you want as often as you want. This is a roleplay safe space, there is no "bad' roleplay here as long you're operating in good faith. Have fun and don't worry about your how awful your accents may be. All you need to do, is show up and have a good time. š
Gameplay details
Players can look forward to a grittier setting within the adventure , traversing Barovia with endless encounters both roleplay/combative, and a strong narrative where their choices matter. Session Zero will cover a non-spoiler overview of additions, as well as trigger warnings, house rules, and both the expectations of the party and players. Our sessions are generally 4 hours long, with a 15 minute break halfway through.
