NEW Ravenloft cards

Post by Hamiclar »

Hey I was wondering on the new fortune decks for the most recent Ravenloft adventure. Is the desk specifically for the adventure or can it be used for 3.5?

Most of the same card names as they did in 2e/3e. There's a couple changes, but no more than between the TSR and S&S versions.
They can easily be used for any version of Ravenloft.

Most of the language is just made gender neutral. Which I actually rather appreciate.
The esper/hero became the seer, which works. Otherwise, it's arguably closer to the original 2e version than the 3e version was.

Thanks, I lost the originals and new deck looks great by the pictures I've seen.

The cards are must to those who plan on using the older modules such as Circle of Darkness, House of Strahd, touch of death, and The Evil Eye. If you have access the book The Waking Dreams from Forbidden lore will be of great use in roleplaying in adventures. The art on the cards are great!
