About the adventure
Welcome to Barovia where your next step may just be your last. Home to the greatest assortment of Werewolves, vampires, and whatever your horror the mind desires. Want to visit a place where death stands still and time seems to flow differently, then look no further. Speak with Stradh on entry, since he already knows you are coming. This is a Grim Dark campaign which means no punches shall be pulled, and death can occur. Think outside the box for character design for the most fun since all choices will have affects on the game. Nice Balance of RP/Combat/Humor Critical Success and Critical Fails with other Home/DM rules i like to use to make the most fun out of the game.

What Ishmaul brings to the table
I bring some fun Improve with or without voices - working on music and more ambience. Rule of Cool within Literal Sense based on overall imagination of the player. So if you can convince me how it works and RP it out.. Sure give it a shot and see what happens. My combat varies from slug fests to chess matches so hope someone is good with Tactics.
