About the adventure
Barovia is a prison of fog, fear, and forgotten hope. In this full-length Curse of Strahd campaign, you and your party will navigate a land where every ally has a secret, every location hides a tragedy, and every decision carries weight. This is a character‑driven gothic horror experience that blends atmospheric storytelling, tense tactical combat, and meaningful roleplay. Strahd is not a distant villain—he is an active presence who studies you, tests you, and adapts to your strengths and weaknesses. Expect a slow-burn narrative with escalating dread, moral dilemmas, and opportunities for heroism in a world that desperately needs it. New and veteran players are welcome, and we have a pregame chat to ensure safety, boundaries, and personal story integration. Your character’s fears, flaws, and desires will shape the campaign’s tone and direction.

About me
I like to learn new RPGs and systems so picking up a new game type is easy and enjoyable. I prefer open world type DMing based on the players backstories and play preferences. I never liked railroaded scenarios or DMs that ignored the actual players. That is why I got into DMing. I like to create open worlds when I can and do use or start from premade scenerios sometimes but like to create the world.
