About the adventure

On the road to Castle Ravenloft lies the village of Abbatz. Some time after Barovia was consumed by the Shadowfell, a bell was forged in the village. After being unveiled to the villagers, the bell was rung, cursing those who lived in Abbatz with undeath. Tales of the bell spread across Barovia and Abbatz was soon avoided by all mortals who travel the twilit realm.

About me

Hello, all! I have 20 years of live action role play (LARP) experience as both a player and a storyteller. I've got years of experience incorporating diverse characters into a cooperative story experience. I started playing 5e during the lockdown and instantly became obsessed. It wasn't long before I branched out into dungeon mastering. I'm currently test-playing my homebrew world loosely set in Faerun, and will set a campaign there on request. I've begun running one-shots at conventions in the PNW, and it's always a delight to bring random people together for a game. My table is a safe, queer-friendly space. This is non-negotiable.

Character creation

Creating your character

Characters start at 8th level. Stats can be standard array or rolled on the Roll20 platform. 2 rolls, take the highest if rolled. Characters will be created in Roll20. No evil characters. Neutral is fine. All players will be expected to bring a certain level of enlightened self-interest to their characters, for group cohesion.
