Café de Nuit

Thank you very much for providing this insight! Honestly I don't know if I'll include Strahd since after my group completes Curse of Strahd, they may be sick of him (and a weekend in hell after recently doing CoS may not be that exciting for them). I guess for Strahd, I'll play it by ear and see if...

They have no place of their own, they just woke up in a cave without any memories and find themselves in the events of NotWD. I like the leomund's secure shelter, but i find it very powerful for my players. I find it quite high fantasy for my standard, and 2 times a week is a lot (depending also on...

I dont know you, but I often find myself stuck in developing NPCs. And i'd like to see what kind of NPCs did you developed for your campaign. Welcome to the The Grand NPCs Topic! How does this work? Simple! If you are stuck with the development of any NPC of your own you can just post it here and as...

I had similar questions for the forum a while back (do your players have a place of their own or are they always on the move?) and the results were typically mixed. I had/have a recent GC campaign where the players are based out of Darkon (for now) and are actually supported by Azalin and his peopl...

My experience with Ravenloft is sadly, lacking. I recently did the new 5e adventures Misty Fortunes and Absent Hearts, and have transitioned that group into Curse of Strahd. From browsing the forums, reading the FAQ, and reading over Mistpedia, I am under the impression that the community here as a...

Hello everyone. I've been roleplaying for years and always had an interest in Ravenloft, often hearing about it here and there, but never actually playing in it/running a game in it. I originally played D&D years ago a few times in the 90s, mostly homebrew but some Dark Sun as well. Most of my ...

I like your idea about the "Abelard Sanction", but since many of the society out there are evil I dont know if it could be coherent. Obviously there is no canon society so large to have a safe house in every region on RL. I still could use the abelard sanction only for some (or all) of th...

Thanks all, you gave me a lot of nice ideas! Running water is a vampire deturant so how about under a waterfall? Sacrifice a frog to Death House for a self resurrecting base. Wereraven network of safe houses. http://i.imgur.com/XDu1XDx.jpg I like how it sounds, but Could you explain me deeper the De...

As some of you may know I am running a campaign involving the hexad, the requiem, van richten bleak house, and many other minor side quest. I will add up adventures as I see fit, but so far I noticed that since my player will need to travel a lot, I think they will need some safe house around the la...

Transposition is what I meant, sorry. :) dont worry, thanks for the tips anyway. Anything i missed about the relation between darklords and demons? http://www.fraternityofshadows.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2227 This past thread may have some information for you regarding fiends and darklords...

I They could not have solved it themselves and so a deus (god) outside intervention (or impossible coincidence) was needed to get same info. I do not want to give the players that kind of information, just stuff they could have found out with a long investigation that I'm trying to avoid to quicken ...

About 10 to 20 hours to prepare an adventure (which can last 3-8 sessions), then about 3-5 hours to prepare a specific game session (I amke a "game scenario" that includes music and sounds for each part ofthe game, images and plans, atmospherics, stats, battle strategy and surprises, impo...

3) I use cut scenes to go back in time, to give players added info. Ex, with the Effigy of Ivan Szimin (a golem), I ended a game with the moment Szimin was killed and the golem animated from hatred : “Meanwhile, Ivan Szimin struggled to his window, desperate for one last look at his assailant. Hold...
