Re: Computer games of Ravenloft

We also got Stone and Blood, which exists because someone, somewhere, looked at Ravenloft and thought, “that’s the best setting for a dodgy 3D fighting game.”

Re: Madame Eva

One of the changes to I6 they made with Curse of Strahd was to make Eva Strahd’s illegitimate and secret sister, which is one of the changes I genuinely enjoyed.

It opens up a lot of possibilities story wise.

Re: Your Favorite Non-D&D System for Ravenloft

Has anyone tried Burning Wheel for Ravenloft?

My friend was explaining the system recently and it sounded like something that could work for Ravenloft.

Re: (Disney) wish: the domain

A matter of taste. Beside, Aisha can't become a Darklady with a single evil action. You need 5 failed Poweer Checks and the act of ultimate evil (While evil killing a repentant bad guy is not worth six failed powe checks.) So that can be her start of darkness but not the way she becomes Darklady. Y...

New “Ravenloft” novel

We’re getting a new “Ravenloft” novel . And it sounds awful; A party of adventurers must brave the horrors of Ravenloft in this official Dungeons & Dragons novel! Five strangers armed with steel and magic awaken in a mist-shrouded land, with no memory of how they arrived: Rotrog, a prideful orc...

Re: Ideal Ravenloft Videogame

Something in the style of the Telltale games.

Or something like Supermassive Games Until Dawn or The Quarry would be the best bet I reckon.

Re: [Creative] The Weirdest Adventuring Parties Strahd Has Hosted (Strahd adventure spoilers)

Immol was on the border of Barovia and Bluetspur. It’s not hard to imagine a small contingent of illithids under the town, manipulating everything.

Re: Best adventure(s) for a one-on-one/two player game?

Investigation games are good for this.

Some of the CotN adventures maybe?

Angel Pajaro from Werebeasts

Gestalt from Created

Lyssa von Zarovich from Vampires

The one from the cover of Ghosts who’s name escapes me right now…

Re: The OGL, Ravenloft and You

WotC seem to be in a similar place now that Games Workshop where a few years ago: it's being ran by someone who doesn't understand the business and is trying to milk it for money. GW was ran by a guy who thought putting the prices of the models up and churning out new editions was the way to go and ...

Re: The OGL, Ravenloft and You

. However, if some WotC employee who can't come up with new stuff of their own does start 'outsourcing' our creations and starts slapping copyright on it, could they then accuse us of violating copyright and order cease-and-desist? Essentially. Take the Whaetleys, which I wrote years ago in the Und...
