Yeah, okay.
So, in Curse of Strahd the Paladin is making advances on Vanasia (Vistana & reincarnation of Tatyana), who is very much reciprocating. Our Warlock is dating a cultist, who is fiercely in love and very fanatic, and our Bloodhunter is declaring her love to the Abbot (who has just outed himself as a Deva, and thinks the group has been sent by the Dark Powers to foil his divine mission).
Just a perfectly normal CoS campaign.
A sketch of Asuna! I'm excited to be playing her again in Curse of Strahd today!

I want Curse of Strahd to include a cursed, but immensely powerful artifact, akin to the Hand of Vecna, that the players get to safekeep after the conclusion of the adventure.
An item that embodies Barovia (and it's overarching theme), that promises power, but exacts a heavy toll.
Currently, I'm thinking of making the "Tome of Strahd" into one, but having a "Heart of Strahd", "Claw of Strahd" or "Skull of Strahd" might also be interesting. 
Ravenloft Poll: In our Curse of Strahd campaign each one of Strahd's female consorts has mastered a specific type of magic (blood, shadow, and vermin).
What should Escher be?
Hello. I suppose I should make a #introduction.
I am Vale, and I'm part of the same #plural system as @etherealsasha@transfem.social. I am an introject of our D&D character from #CurseOfStrahd - a changeling Aberrant Mind Sorcerer, with some features changed to be more fey-like.
My profile picture was drawn by our cleric, and the background is a photograph taken by Skye, an old headmate of ours, on the southern coast of Oregon.
I'll probably use this account to post whatever writing I've done, which currently is none, but I'd like to change that.
I'm not too sure what else to put here. If I think of anything, I'll reply to this post with it.
For the last arc of our "Curse of Strahd" campaign, the movie I've probably drawn the most inspiration from, is "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3"
You came to Barovia to defeat Strahd. You failed. Now your adventuring party is a coterie of neonate vampires bound to his will, striving to survive night to night, and perhaps still someday break free...or take his place as a Dark Lord.

First D&D session of the year (Ravenloft). Started 2025 by having a major antagonist from one of the character's backstories resurface.
She's essentially a vampire blood mage, that uses a pack of "blood hounds" (feral vampires) to hunt, and is based on Volenta Popovich.
The party is at lvl 9, which means they'll be facing a lot of the big bads of Barovia in the next couple of sessions, concluding with Strahd von Zarovich.
I’ve got a new showreel. This one exclusively uses gothic horror music that I’ve written for Curse of Strahd, all from 2024.
Take a listen and let me know what you think.
All of the music is available on my Bandcamp: thearcanecomposer.bandcamp.com
@MoltenSulfur I ran the Stygian Library as a two session incursion into #curseofstrahd. The players very quickly decided that they just wanted to find what they were after and get out really fast. Can't think why! ;-)
Thinking back on #CurseOfStrahd and like... it's a funny title if you think about it. Strahd is the fella's first name. It's like Curse of George, or Curse of Dave. All the mystique is in the supposed exotica of a made up name
There are also others that i tend to use for specific settings, i.e. for our Ravenloft / Curse of Strahd campaign I liberally use content from:
- Grim Hollow
- Mörk Borg
- Pathfinder: Horror Adventures
- Pathfinder: Horror Realms
Welp. My character in Curse of Strahd used their Dark Gift to try to gain some knowledge, failed a Wisdom save, and lost one of their own memories in exchange for the knowledge they gained.
This is fine.
Ravenloft Poll: The Abbot has left St. Markovia after hearing of angelic sightings in the Svalich Woods. After years of searching, he has yet to find the celestial behind it.
He assumes that the celestial cannot properly manifest in Barovia, as the dark forces in this land extinguish its light. In his madness, he intends to build something to aid the celestial, and allow it to enter Barovia.
What does he do in his madness?
Did you know we have a wide range of #TTRPG series? From our #Halloween horror games, through #DnD5e adaptation to #HomeBrew #twitch campaigns, we have #AudioDrama for all!

Hey friends! So my new DnD mousepad designs came in as well as restocks! This MIGHT BE MY LAST MOUSEPAD ORDER??? If the Trump Tariffs pass, ordering more will become untenable. So if you're interested, snag one now!

While I'm not going to attempt to chronicle every session I run, this weekend's Curse of Strahd game had some interesting developments, both due to the adventure, and also how the group dynamics work at our table. #DnD5e #5eOGL #CurseOfStrahd
So I briefly went back into my old Twitter account to grab some of the art I commissioned and I found this.
That's Ireena's girlfriend Tamra who once drunk dialed Strahd in the afterlife to brag about how she's banging Ireena.
(Yes this canonically happened in another game)
Last week, (just) in time for Halloween, I released a new single made as a soundtrack for online play of gothic horror TTRPGs. It’s got some music I’m genuinely happy with, and I hope you’ll check it out.
