Café de Nuit

Hello all! I wrote my own table top RPG. No, it's not a horror game, but there may be one of those coming. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sixgunrobot/3page-rpg?ref=user_menu I wrote up a table top RPG whose rules fit on three pages. It's called, aptly... 3PAGE RPG! It's already %200 funded, bu...

Yeap, I agree it is amazing. And I agree the Dark Powers don't go in your face to make you investigate. Very interesting approach that of your players. Many players (at least those I know), would have made supernatural investigators or something similar if they suspected supernatural mysteries woul...

Wait, session 40 and they don't know anything? Heh. That seems to me you are keeping them newbies. Not that it is wrong, but it is not the way I would go. And just to say... pre-lichdom phantom Azalin is still an archmage. That's a tough cookie. This is what is amazing. I have not really kept too m...

Canon-wise, encountering Azalin in his human form would mean that they would have run into Firan Zal'honan. And you know players. ... He also mis-remembers that the Apparatus is what gave him his lichdom. Sorry, my bad. This is canon, it is just 5e canon, in 2e & 3e things are a bit (lot) diffe...

there were scenes of Azalin first assembling the Apparatus appeared as he ordered his apprentices about (this is pre-lichdom Azalin, and again, it's only a phantom of him). ????? (Canon-wise) :azalin: Don't mind me though I am a canon freak :mrgreen: Canon-wise, encountering Azalin in his human for...

Other than knowing the Strahd & Azalin household names (which I didn't include in the campaign), they didn't know much, other than Barovia, where they come from. They didn't even know the name Azalin when we started the game! So, the players ran into a reliquary which teleported you inside of a...

Hey guys! I had a thread were I was going to post updates of my regular game in the Mists. However, I think it's going to be more useful to post about my various Ravenloft games as a series of separate topics. The first one is this - playing Ravenloft with complete noobs. Can I tell you how much of ...

So, here's an update from a while back. The campaign is on Session 20, so plenty of game play has happened. The party has been manipulated by Ivana Boritsi into taking a message to Harkon Lukas. In the campaign, Harkon is trying to expand his holdings by opening businesses outside of Kartakass. He w...

So, for my Ravenloft campaign, the party has visited Kartakass. They have just checked into the Old Kartakan Inn. All of these players are Ravenloft noobs, so this is going to be fun. I made a pretty extensive map of the inn, based on some other maps of the place and the 3D diagram from Feast of Gob...

The Requiem rules are meant for 2nd edition and do not port over very well, IMO. The other, free, 5e Vampire classes out on the internet seem to fit 5e far better.

This is for 5th Edition.

For the purposes of this game, the character's alignment will not mechanically slide towards evil. Meaning, if you take a level of X, you don't immediately shift on the alignment scale. That will be more a matter of roleplaying for our purposes.

So, I'm running a solo campaign for a client of mine, and she proposed making a character that is a vampire. Back in the day, I would have said no way - because the prevailing thought was that this would be "too powerful". But this is a solo game, mind you, so we needn't worry about one ch...

Anybody ever do baby doll as a darklord? My recent villain in my campaign was largely based off of Baby Doll. Check it out on my thread! (Going Back to Ravenloft....) Her name was Molly Modello. Her stats are up there an everything. Any new thoughts? I will say - one thing I will caution people abo...

Rucht, those are CR2 or 3 at most... just saying. TOGETHER they are equivalent of CR6 creature. You're not wrong. 8) The party was five second level PCs. They beat Molly Modello because of "many attacks" feature of D&D. The PCs always get a lot more attacks than the big, bad, evil guy...

Here's a little bonus - Molly's stats. Warding bond was the MVP spell of the game for his particular villain. It essentially divides all damage she gets between her and her steel defender. It gave her a lot more longevity in terms of damage she could take. Molly Stats copy.jpg [ Steel Defender copy....
