NOw I may be looking at this wrong, but extra planar creatures such as demons are given a reality wrinkle. They have been given a space of their own. I have always seen this as an area that the dp's can not influence. BUt again as Jester says, if they can not completely dominate everything in the la...

ON the real side, I bounced this off my gypsy wife. Wording and curses in their society are a game most times. Any real curse is left wide open to be inturpretted by those who would dare cross that line or accept the deal. Personal preference comes into play. Mull over the words, if you see cleverne...

Jester is absolutely right. I had a character who played a Wu-Jen and added his own flare... magic missles with streamers, colored smoke, etc. NOw as for how peopple learn... Again absolutely up to you and the character. I gave one of my characters a book that spoke with him, taught him magic and th...

You hvae a perfect opportunity to bring in the twins. If you do not wish to bring in the romance aspect as some individuals do not care for it, Natalia may have been forced to trigger a change in all her children... How I did this is have the pcs in confrontation with her, she was in severe danger a...

I see that alienation is the main theme so far. Cities bring to my mind a couple of things. The hate and racism of people is easily expanded. An outsider being beaten in the streets and people either ignoring or joining in. The main horror for me in a city would be that I am no longer a person. I am...

Dion, not so much the minority. I like to run a low to medium. It is hard to gauge the effect of magic in Ravenloft. I truly like to have the players treasure the magic they have obtained, but the basis that each magic item in Ravenloft is going to have some unique history because of the rarity of m...

I have left the fog as is, with one change. IF you walk through it, it does not take effect unless Strahd tries to close the borders. So in effect it is most often a creepy side effect of the village, but harmless unless the man is pissed off at someone. I like the Vistani, but forcing people to dea...

This has happened to me often. Mostly with groups whose members are new to the game or new to me. I was running Servant of Darkness and the pcs were dealing with the hags. One decided openly yo mock the hags and be a complete and total moron about it. So the death eye laid him to waste and the party...
