Dnd Strahd - Blog Posts
DnD today. Running a party of four through Curse of Strahd. Last session: they entered the Amber Temple and faced off against the encounter in the big room. I always feel as if I'm going easy on them, but I did my best to be ruthless. Yet these are seasoned veterans; they still pulled through. Now after that grueling fight, they have to decide if they want to continue exploring. They're technically a level below the minimum for exploring this dungeon, but I feel like they can handle the rest.
I just hope they remember about the Flaming Skulls :'\
Hey....do you like DnD?
Hi there, I'm Bee. Recently I had a friend tell me she wanted to play some good ol' Dungeons and Dragons. I agreed to run a game for her. Then I realized, I need more players. That is where you come in, hopefully.
The game I plan to run will be 21+, LGBTQIA+ friendly, POC friendly, neurodivergent friend, and beginner friendly modified Curse of Strahd campaign. We will be using Discord and Roll20 to play. I should also mention I would like to record the session strictly to make taking notes a little easier. If you are uncomfortable with this, we can discuss that. Though the only people who would be hearing these recordings are myself and the players should you want them.
What I'm Looking For:
Four players the age of 21 and older.
Availability on Saturdays 9 or 10pm EST. (Start date TBD)
Communication is key! Both in and out of game.
Things To Keep In Mind:
• CoS is a game with a serious tone. It can get dark. Even though this is modified.
• There will be combat, though this will be a heavy-RP campaign.
Please message me here if you have any questions or if you would like to join.
Hope to see you in Barovia!
Thank you all for the interest in the game! Stick around to hear how the sessions go? I'm sure I'll be updating :)

My character alutheris for our Curse of Strahd campaign
Reblog so the fic gets written 🤣
Still super obsessed with the idea of Tav being part of the og party that killed Strahd and they just… dont mention it. At all.
Like, you’ve got:
Gale: Archmage of Waterdeep, wizarding prodigy, Chosen of Mystra herself
Karlach: frontliner of the Blood War and escapee from Avernus
Wyll: The Blade of Frontiers and son of Grand Duke Ulder Ravengard
Astarion: Vampire spawn of Cazador Szarr, and former magistrate
Shadowheart: Priestess of Shar, Lady of Loss
Lae’zel: Badass githyanki and proud servant of Vlaakith
And my Tav’s canon: Slayer of the Dread Lord Strahd von Zarovich, currently trying to find a way to bring it up to the party and is 100% awkward about it because they died *after* killing Strahd and only because they tripped off a cliff and their old party thought it’d be funny to cast Reincarnate instead of Revivify.
The story everyone knows is that (Tav) died in the fight against Strahd as a “final heroic sacrifice for the greater good.” When in reality, they’re too embarrassed to correct anyone so they’ve picked a new name and literally made a deal with Neferon or Exethanter for completely different magic to what they used to wield and now they’re committed to the disguise/new life/fake backstory of being tricked into a Warlock pact. At this point, they’re neckdeep in this awkward situation where everyone believes they died a hero’s death, their old party is kinda just laughing about everything, and their BG3 party is completely oblivious.
Astarion: “It’s near impossible to kill a true vampire lord. Cazador is almost unbeatable.”
Tav the Strahd Slayer: “…I see.”
