About the adventure
The mists are rolling back into Barovia, it’s ancient curse renewing once more. The eternal ruler of the lands, the tyrant that slaughtered friend and foe alike is back after it was last banquished by your ancestors 500 years ago. The count Strhad von Zarovich returns to his kingdom once more, and once more there will be need for some heroes to do battle with him and return him to the shadows he reappeared from, hopefully for one last time. In Curse of Strhad, The Last Hunt you will find not only a new and curated experience through a Barovia that has not known the terrors of Strhad for 500 years, but also an extended ending that will see you traveling through the domains of dread in search of a way to stop Strhad from ever comming back. Expect challenging encounters, meeting characters new and old and exploring a changed Barovia full of hope now fearfull of loosing it all. Most importantly of all, expect Him to return with hatred and a bengance planned through 500 years of solitude and bitterness.

About me
Hi everyone!!! The name's Fruit (he/him). I'm a Spanish-based GM with close to a decade of TTRPG experience, and let's just say that what started as a group of high schoolers fooling around with some dice quickly spiraled out into a passion for worldbuilding and storytelling that has never really died down. My games have always centered around making my players's characters feel special and involved with the plot, and that includes creating custom storylines, designing specific homebrew, and adjusting the style of play so that everyone enjoys themselves at my table. Personally, I enjoy creating my own homebrew settings as I feel it helps with character integration, but I've been known to run prewritten modules and adventures as well as making games based on well-known books, TV shows, videogames, and more. In that regard, I'm also very open to direct requests from players and groups that already have an idea for a game and just need a GM to get it started. Last but certainly not least, I would like to make clear that I intend my games to be as much of a safe space as possible. To that end, I will provide safety tools as much as I can, and I will not take kindly to any type of discrimination at my tables.

Creating your character
Players are encouraged to come up with a character concept before session 0, but characters will not be finalized before. In the session 0 we will discuss everyones character ideas to find a good balance and a party dinamic that everybody enjoys. After that i will work individually with everyone to have their character redy for the first session. On a technical level, characters can use anything oficialy published for the 2014 rules, and if they want to use something from the 2024 ruleset, we can work together to adapt it. Characters will start at level 3.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players will need a (free) Discord account and a (free) The Forge account. The Forge is an officialy partnered server provider for Foundry vtt that will be used to host this game. Links to the Discord server and The Forge server will be provided once you join.
What Fruitpool brings to the table
Players can expect a dreary and tense adventure with dangers lurking at every corner, all of it brought to life through the use of Foundry vtt and immersive music. They can also expect a story made to fit with their characters, integrating backstories, needs and wants into the campaign to create a more memorable and colective playing experience. Finally, players can expect a full new expanded ending, with new places to explore new enemies to defeat and new quests to fulfill. All of it with the final mission of putting a permanent end to Strahd Von Zarovich.
