#c; curse of strahd

[thelostbarovianroyals]

My players managed to survive the interactive Tome of Strahd but my god - are their characters TRAUMATIZED. Deeply so... Then they all had to pretend like they did not just see the fall of Ravenloft and watch a sad, baby hand man try to light a wicker sun. 

Oh. They also found the reincarnation of Sergei and it was chaos.

I got Scout which honestly - is probably the least surprising thing. Did I mean to make her the nearly burnt out older sister who is determined to get shit done? No. Is she? Yeeeahh. 

And the campaign I run!

I realized every Victor in the tag is insanely different in vibes so I tried sketching a few I've seen around because I'm obsessed with them.... @pigeon-princess | @bardicblast | @tantaliax | @vanhelsingapologist

Yes Escher betrayed us, drained and killed one of our Player Characters, murdered my Player Character's ex husband right in front of them, and held an entire village hostage. Yes he's still my backup character's favorite person and I think they should kiss, thank you very much.

Barovia's (least) favorite menace~ 🥰

As the game’s gone on, there’s been a small ship forming between @wintert-ide’s character Bell and Solomon. It’s a VERY unconventional one, but one that fits the very strange place they’re in and the very strange people they are.

Heavily inspired by the song “Meet Me in the Woods” by Lord Huron

Very excited to use the COS Tarokka as my main tarot deck because there’s a way to read these cards as if you were reading normal divination tarot decks — my friend knows how to decipher and read them, he sent me a guide!!

And this is the first fucking card I draw.

Look - I know it is probably on a million playlists but - 

Strahd & Sergei.

@saintsdawn said: “ an enemy of an enemy doesn’t necessarily make them a friend, i’ve discovered. ”

"Then you are, it seems, wiser than most."

She offers a wan smile, but it fades quickly enough; it's rare that anything shakes Astoria enough to make her so careless with guarding her expressions, but it has been a strange night. Long fingers drum against the table where they sit together, and she wonders how she appears to them: monstrous, or simply pitiable, locked away in her estate like this, some thing hidden in the dark.

"With that said—I take hospitality and all it entails very seriously, sweet thing." She waves a lazy hand towards the door. "My woods are treacherous to travel without a guide, and I don't like to send my Lenore out so close to dawn when she'll have to return alone. You're welcome to stay through the day. My library is yours to peruse, and the gardens are, I'm told, rather lovely in the sunlight. I can even show you to the wine cellar before I retire, if you'd like. And if you remain to this evening, then we can discuss what friendship might entail."

Her eyes, more animal than human, settle on Florence's, the gold almost yellow in the flicker of candlelight and the pale brush of dawn through the window. That they've come here at all speaks to either a foolhardy bravery or a cleverness that Astoria has stopped expecting from her guests. She stands in a fluid motion, fingers resting against the tabletop, and she tips her head and looks them over once again. Tall and steady. Lovely, certainly. Fearsome, unquestionably. She thinks she'd like to see them fight. She thinks she'd like to see them fight her.

"So today, as far as I am concerned, we are friends. And once we've both had some rest, we can renegotiate that position as we see fit. Or you can take your chances in my woods—just let Lenore know what you intend. I don't want her to have to cook for someone who isn't staying."

Rough turnaround of my CoS PC

[thelostbarovianroyals]

I got Keres - which is about 0% surprising to me. If Keres doesn’t end up starting some kind of Governess Teacher-ish Union when she gets back to Daggerford, I will be 100% surprised. 

Each character has a little synopsis written about them. I'll probably do my OG Saturday game, too.
