About the adventure

No nautiloid ship. No mindflayer tadpoles. No True Souls. Just the companions of Baldur's Gate 3 being taken to Barovia. Could Karlach, Astarion, Shadowheart, Lae'Zel, or Wyll be the heroes Barovia needs. What about your own version of Tav or Durge? Karlach running through Avernus, hoping for an escape. Surrounded by the mists, she gets that escape. Is she free or is Ravenloft just another nightmare for her. Astarion wakes up in Barovia, lands where there's never sunlight. Escaping one vampire fate, just to find another. Wyll, the Blade of the Frontiers, a hero in Baldur's Gate, but can he be a hero in the dark lands and face off with Strahd? Shadowheart is surrounded by the mists. A dark path lies before her. Possibly new temptations. Lae'Zel wakes up in a place no githyanki has ever travelled. No creche to save her from what Strahd has in store for her or the others. Durge awakens on a trail. No memories of their past. Could they be the reason the mists came calling? A new imaginative retelling of Curse of Strahd, with lots of DM additions and rewrites.

Character creation

Creating your character

You will choose from premade Baldur's Gate 3 level 1 characters as they are on DnDBeyond. First come first serve as far as Companions available. There will be a free session 0 where everyone meets and goes over any details needed, as well as safety talks.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Discord (voice, video optional), Roll20, DnDBeyond, and Beyond 20 extension will be needed.

What Clint brings to the table

A new twist on the Curse of Strahd module. I can't promise that I will do voices, but I strive to use character backstories and keep the game moving at the pace you deserve. All of my campaigns continue as long as the players prefer. If a module ends and everyone wants to continue with those characters or stories, I will add another module, rewrite to extend the current one, or completely homebrew something to continue. For this particular game, extending into Vecna would be perfect.

Homebrew rules

Will go through some house rules during the session 0. Majority of those will benefit the players.
