About the adventure
Dear Children of the Night, What cruel jest the cosmos has cast upon you! By some cruel twist of fate — or perhaps the ill-conceived prank of a devilishly bored god — you, creatures of refinement and nocturnal elegance, have been rudely deposited into the backwater medieval purgatory of... 'Barovia'? Here, in a land that smells faintly of peasant sweat and poorly aged wine, you have drawn the gaze of none other than Count Strahd von Zarovich — an ancient vampire who fancies himself a tragic villain but has the dramatic subtlety of a theatre amateur on their first audition. So naturally, he has taken a particular interest in you. Strahd fancies himself the apex predator of these lands, a vampire of unparalleled wit, power, and… well, questionable fashion sense. Yet how will this pompous relic fare when confronted with your kind? Will the modern sophisticates of the World of Darkness bow to his rustic little tyranny? Or will you graciously show this outdated bloodsucker what real manipulation, intrigue, and terror look like? So, come and test your mettle in this farcical meeting of worlds. Will you outwit this archaic Count, proving once and for all that your vampiric pedigree surpasses his melodramatic menace? Or will Barovia’s rustic absurdities and Strahd’s insufferable ego reduce you to pawns in his centuries-old game? The mists part for no one, but surely, you have the wit and resolve to make even this dreary realm bow to your superiority. The stage is set — will you step into the shadowed spotlight?

About me
If you're looking for a GM who's equal parts humor, creativity, and chaos, look no further! RPG and GM-ing have been a lifelong passion; I've been doing it for over 20 years. My storytelling style is immersive with a strong focus on game flow; my tables are judgment-free zones, as I want players to feel comfortable roleplaying whatever they prefer. Come for the monsters and legendary artefacts; stay for the laughs and chaos! Join our community of RPG legends at discord.gg/legendmaker

Creating your character
Vampire the Masquerade characters are created beforehand. I usually schedule a short call via Discord to provide parameters for the character creation and clarify any doubts.
Players can expect a lighthearted roleplaying experience seasoned with fast-paced combat, puzzling mysteries, plot twists and cliffhangers. I reward good roleplaying and creative problem-solving; I'm not a rule stickler nor a punishment fanatic. I encourage players to make their own decisions and give them meaningful choices so that they can really feel as if they're shaping the game world. My NPCs are quirky, nuanced, and always up to something. (No, seriously, I think one of them might be a secret dragon in disguise.). At the end of the day, my goal is to create a memorable, immersive, and fun gaming experience for my players. If you're up for that, grab your dice and let's get started! _______ I use Discord for the sessions' group voice calls and Roll20 as the virtual tabletop. Before a new player joins, I usually schedule a half-hour Discord call to support the character creation, clarify any doubts and go through the safety tools.

Safety
How Legendmaker creates a safe table
Practical matters: - Roleplaying your character & creative problem-solving will be well-rewarded, both in bonus XP and inspiration; - All new characters roll 2d100 for a chance at special items; - You may choose to add a flaw or secret to your character to get an extra 1d100; - We have 10-15 min bio breaks at least once per session (usually halfway through).
