About the adventure
WARNING: THIS CAMPAIGN WILL END IN TRAGEDY Barovia, the cursed land of The Devil, Strahd. It wasn't always this way... Before the Mist, Before the damnation, before the slaughter, Barovia was a young kingdom about to earn it's new royal family: Sergei and his bride, Tatyana. You have received an invitation to their wedding. Some of you are old friends of the soon to be married couple. Some of you are friends with Strahd. Regardless, you will not be spared! Join me in telling the story of the faithful night of the wedding that ended in the walls of Ravenloft covered in red. Hear the untold story of a group of acquaintances caught in the massacre. Witness the rise of Strahd von Zaravich as he takes his bloody throne in the walls of his kingdom. This story is inspired by Exandra Unlimited: Calamity. This story is already set in stone. You can only watch in horror. Scream, but no one will hear you. For He is the Ancient. He is the Land. He is the Devil, Strahd. (This game will be record but will only be shared if players consent. Pretty much all I am sharing this too is a few players who cannot join the one shot for one reason or another. This will not be posted one social media without all the player's consent. All players will receive a copy of the recording for quality assurance)

About me
"Come to my table and let us tell a tale together!" I am Ayden! I am a experienced Dungeon Master. My preferred system is Knave 1e or D&D 5e. I also do some voice acting as well. I have made my own world and can't wait to show it off! I am beginning friendly and even have been taught to teach D&D from a local group here. I am all about RPing. Games I have done: * Homebrew Curse of Strahd (basically just using the world and adding all my own elements) * SCP * 6 Alice Is Missing games * 3 One Shots I taught D&D * 2 completely original campaign Games I want to run: * By The Book Curse Of Strahd * Dragon Heist * 5e Adaption of Baldur's Gate 3 * Dragonlance (5e Adaption) I'm looking to make a bit of money on the side for something I love doing! I'm learning Roll20 and VTT. I'm sorta new to online games.
