The Vistani are a human sub-race of gypsy wanderers who centuries ago adopted the Land of the Mists as their home. It in turn has adopted them, granting them several unique abilities that command respect and inspire fear. It is possible that their place or origin either is lost to them or is mythical. It is suggested that they can still venture beyond the Land of the Mists and they have been encountered on Gothic Earth in particular.
The Vistani are a stateless ethnic group, tightly bound together by ties of blood and of culture. Individual vistani are not assigned a nationality even if the state of their birth is known. A vistani baby adopted by a family of giorgio or one raised by its parents within the confines a single domain would, however, be assigned a nationality. The Vistani are rigorously divided into three tasques and further subdivided into several tribes.
In 4th edition, Vistani can be found in many worlds, and are planar wanderers. Vistani outside of Ravenloft adopt like minded people of any race into their clan. A sidebar mentions that the DM can limit membership in the Vistani to certain races if it makes sense for the campaign world,
a hint that in Ravenloft, the vistani may remain all human and bound by blood, not adoption.
Curse
Evil Eye
The Sight
The Omen Watchers, based in Sidnar, study the prophecies of the Vistani.
Bigotry Against Vistani
The hunting of Vistani is the passion of Malocchio Aderre, who is in fact one-eighth vistani through his mother. No Vistana is safe within Invidia or in the immediate vicinity of its borders. Others certainly would like to harm vistani, the Syndicate of Enlightened Citizens for example, but few dare not do so directly and have difficulty finding proxies, such is the fear of the evil eye and the curse that lies in wait on the Vistani tongue. Monsters even seem to have some appreciation of the risks and prefer to seek out less dangerous prey.
An exception is the fiend Credimori who is a sworn enemy of the Vistani, but his methods are subtle, fermenting bigotry against them in places so devoid of education or good sense that his victims are unconstrained by the honestly earned reputation of the Vistani for dire retribution.[1]
Encountering
It is said that one finds the vistani only when they wish to be found. As they are a nomadic people with a mobility unequaled by any other race in existence, the vistani can conceivably be found just about any where. The one place where they keep a near permanent camp is beside the Tser pool near the village of Barovia. The presence of Vistani may also be divined by spotting Vista-Chiri, a species of bird that follow Vistani caravans.
In Literature

John W. Mangrum's Vistani Lore[2]
 |
This section contains Homebrew non-canon info, created by fans |
Characters with ranks in Knowledge (local) or Knowledge (Ravenloft) can learn more about the Vistani. When a character makes a successful skill check, the following lore is revealed, including the information from lower DCs.
DC Result
- 11 This aloof, colorfully dressed stranger is one of the Vistani, a mysterious, nomadic folk. This result reveals all humanoid traits and the human subtype.
- 16 The Vistani are infamous for their ability to cast the evil eye or terrible curses on anyone who cross them. They have no respect for the laws of any society but their own.
- 21 Vistani can navigate the Mists, and can lead others to any destination. Female Vistani possess the Sight, allowing them to see the future. The Vistani are usually willing to provide their services to non-Vistani, for a price. Vistani speak a patchwork language called patterna, but they often know other languages as well.
- 26 Although Vistani are always on the move, a semi-permanent camp can be found at the foot of the Tser Falls, in the shadow of Castle Ravenloft in Barovia. The Vistani sell an antidote for the poisonous fog that surrounds the Village of Barovia.
- 31 The Vistani must always stay on the move. If they abandon their nomadic ways, they destroy the strange magic that grants them their powers. Vistani are divided into several “tasques,” or nations. Members of each tasque specialize in different skills and talents.
- 36 The Vistani fear a legendary foe called the Dukkar. Any male Vistana with the Sight is fated to become a Dukkar unless quickly put to death.

The Vistani on Gothic Earth
The Vistani exist on Gothic Earth much as they do in Ravenloft.[52] On Gothic Earth, they function as a Chaotic Neutral qabal. However. they are split into no less than twenty-four tribes (as presented in the original Masque of the Red Death and Other Tales boxed set. The tribes are differentiated only by a vague symbology rather than precise identification symbols as with other qabals.[53] As of the 3rd Edition hardback book version of the campaign setting, the Vistani are but a singular clan of much smaller numbers than in the Land of Mists. This version of the Vistani cherish giomorgo children much more than they do elsewhere.[54]
The connection between the Vistani of Ravenloft and the Vistani of Gothic Earth have varied by game source. In the 2nd Edition Masque of the Red Death and Other Tales boxed set, what connection (if any) the Gothic Earth Vistani may have to their counterparts in Land of Mists are unknown. If the Gothic Earth Vistani have knowledge of their relatives in the Land of Mists, they have never discussed it with those outside their kin. The Vistani have their practitioners of magic- adepts (usually qabalists) or mystics (usually mediums.) Their spells. psychic abilities, and magical powers seem unaffected by the Red Death.[52]
On the other hand in the 3rd Edition hardback book version of the campaign setting, the Vistani came through a a dimensional hole opened by the conjuration the Red Death to Gothic Earth[55] from the Demiplane of Dread.[56] The Vistani seer Neferi led her people from the Land of Mists into the sands of Ancient Egypt. Yet this knowledge has been forgotten by all save for a tiny handful of lorekeepers, even among the Vistani.[57]
