About the adventure
Barovia is an unforgiving land, trapping all those who wander through the fog. Death walks every corner for those who are careless or unfortunate. Welcoming newcomers and veterans alike, this game can be stressful but will be fun and rewarding. Please bring an upbeat attitude, great role play and willingness to approach combat with tactics and perserverance. I hope to see you all soon, in Barovia.

Creating your character
We will discuss this during our free session 0. We can do standard array role, or discuss Hardcore rules. Any core rule books for 5e is open, such as Tasha's, MotM, Ebberon and so on. Backgrounds must be approved before hand as some give feats. at Level 1 you may take a racial feat, if your race does not have one we can homebrew one that is fitting. Starting level is level 1, roll HP, only rerolling 1s once on the hp.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please have Discord, will create a new server just for our game, as well as having roll20 ready.
What Ambr0se brings to the table
I will have a curated Spotify playlist if all of you have Premium for a jam session during the game, plenty of role playing opportunities and decent combat that will challenge you. I like sticking with Rules as Intended but do tend to go with rule of cool if it is deemed appropriate
Homebrew rules
potions are bonus actions for the role, a full action to gain max HP on health potions.

Safety
How Ambr0se creates a safe table
Session 0 will go over our content warning, as Strahd is a dark, horror game focus on stressing the party almost at all times. We will go over yay's and nays, whats acceptable at the table and what will not be. Afterwards we will make that as out outline for Lines and Veils. After each session we will have 10-20 min to go over if everything is ok, if we had fun and what can be improved upon. X,N and O's will be sent via Private message directly to me in Discord, or you can verbally inform me if that is what you would prefer to do.
