PF2 Curse of Strahd

Pathfinder 2e | Campaign

About the adventure

My name is Sam, and I would like to take you on this adventure of horror. I have run D&D games for over 25 years now, and I have run Curse of Strahd a few times now. I have also read the novels and have thrown my own twists into the setting and module. Whether you are new player or a veteran of fantasy gaming, I welcome you! (Insert Evil vampiric laughter with epic gothic music chilling through the cold, night air.) My Curse of Strahd is a hybrid between the OG module from older editions of D&D, 5E's module, lore from the novels, other various medias of horror fiction, and my own personal spin with unique horrific monsters to deal with, all transcribed into Pathfinder Second Edition rules. Text from the back cover of Curse of Strahd module: "Under raging storm clouds, the vampire Count Strahd von Zarovich stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of Castle Ravenloft. Rumbling thunder pounds the castle spires. The wind's howling increases as he turns his gaze down toward the village of Barovia. Far below, yet not beyond his keen eyesight, a party of adventurers has just entered his domain. Strahd's face forms the barest hint of a smile as his dark plan unfolds. He knew they were coming, and he knows why they came - all according to his plan. A lightning flash rips through the darkness, but Strahd is gone. Only the howling of the wind fills the midnight air. The master of Castle Ravenloft is having guests for dinner, and you are invited."

Additional details

How to prepare

A working mic and at least a passive understanding of the rules. Most importantly bring a good attitude and prepare for adventure!

What I provide

I keep a Discord channel for the voice chat, a dice rolling bot (optional), and to keep the lore of the setting and story. I tend to run my games with Theater of the Mind style but will use either Roll20 or Foundry for combats when needed. I generally stick to the rules as written but also bend them for the Rule of Cool when necessary.

Gameplay details

Feel free to talk to me about anything that may need to be avoided or if anything bothers you, whether it is during or after the game. Ravenloft is a very dark setting, but I do not intend to make it pure misery. There will always be a glimmer of hope and light to cling to.
