About the adventure
🦇 Vampire drama 🦇 Romanceable NPCs 🦇 Gothic horror 🦇 Smaller party size Play with a D&D in a Castle dungeon master & creator of She is the Ancient! She is the Ancient is a Platinum best-selling take on this classic D&D horror adventure to include more women while removing the original campaign setting's sexism, ableism, and racism. This game is beginner-friendly but not for the faint of heart! Strahd is the master and countess of this cursed land of Barovia, dragging unknowing adventurers through the same torture and horror she has endured for millennia. You’ll uncover her dark history, discover the tragedy she created, and fight off her minions, monsters, and followers. You’ll save innocent people and hopefully lift the curse on the land. Or you'll side with her to the doom of all Barovians. "Under raging storm clouds, a lone figure stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of Castle Ravenloft. The vampire Count[ess] Strahd von Zarovich stares down a sheer cliff at the village below. A cold, bitter wind spins dead leaves about [her], billowing [her] cape in the darkness. "The master of Ravenloft is having guests for dinner. And you are invited." (Cover image by Yorsey Hernandez)

Additional Details
How to prepare
Make sure you have a camera so we can see your face. It enhances the roleplay experience and feelings of safety for everyone at the table. Make sure your microphone works well! Make sure to bring your character sheet to the session. You can roll digital or physical dice.
What I provide
I will provide visuals to enhance gameplay.
Gameplay details
Players can expect a rules-lite gaming experience as I'm very keen on the concept of yes, and. While we're following a campaign storyline, I try to make sure that my players do not feel railroaded and have plenty of time to explore and roleplay with one another.

How will character creation work
Your character should be created ahead of game time. I highly recommend using DnD Beyond so you can join a campaign space to share a roll-room if you so choose! You'll also get access to my digital library for your booking(s).
