Café de Nuit

I started playing when i was 15, which was a year and a half ago..
Prior Roleplaying experience of 6 years, so methinks that's about right.. Though my Pc's ages are 15, 19, and 26.
But in all honesty i don't feel the group plays to Ravenlofts full potential of Gothic Horror, with too much table talk ...

Sadly, i dont have any of the Gaz's because i've never seen one...
Mildly depressing, yes?

I'm 16..Just got through sophmore year... And i'm feeling rather young and youthfull..

Indeed, and the last thing we need in barovia is a group of transvestites doing THAT dance..

Death, in my campaign, occured when a player do something wrong or when they're outnumbered by ennemies or not enough prepared (this mean buffed in 3.5 :D )
Because it's very complicated to be ressurected (the cost and the chance of being an undead) when a character die in most cases it's over, and ...

Indeed.. i have had some minor death problems in my campaign, in the sense that my PC's aren't what you would call brilliant strategists.. My party has trouble thinking outside of the box and is constantly getting into trouble for that, by getting either slaughtered or in a bit of trouble with the ...

I've been wondering the same thing for awhile now..
How i handle combat is simple, each combat is sort of a puzzle to the game. You can do it the hard, long way by killing each opponent the mundane way, Or, you can use the surroundings or a weakness to a particular creature to make the combat ten ...

Does the current adventuring party have a mid- to high-level evil cleric among its enemies? If so, you might let the bad guys do the work for a change. The evil cleric gets ahold of the dead warlock's body and restores him to life, but on the condition that the warlock becomes a spy and saboteur ...

I don't like resurrection magic at all. I think it's something that should be used extremely sparingly, by which I mean there should be at most one occurrence of it in any given campaign arc.

One idea I've been toying with is whether you could preserve the decedent's skills and mental stats by ...

Indeed.. i have had some minor death problems in my campaign, in the sense that my PC's aren't what you would call brilliant strategists.. For example, i had a wizard (2nd level) Run over to Azrael and hit him over the head with his 1/4 staff.. in which Azrael retalliated by slicing him in half with ...

Indeed, i had a similar problem when i first started running in the dread realms.. (a year and a half ago...) Everything I did seemed too fantasy, or strait gore, to disgust my PC's.. What I did was read a few Ravenloft novels (Heart of Midnight, Knight of the Black Rose, and Vampire of the Mists ...

Somehow in my chronicle of events the Wolf God has become an importent figure... or at least one that is to be seen much of as a deity.. And yet I am still unclear of all that the Wolf God is..
Is he not a non-existent being, and merely a figurehead for the darkpowers to, in a manner of speaking ...

Well, thats just it - its to be tempting, to lure people down the path of depravity. From a metagame perspective, the bonus does outweight the penalties. But, from an in-character perspective - what kind of stain does that leave on the soul? And, can the PC stop from advancing further down that ...

I got mine in on the third...
It's Okay.. but i really dont like how it says how to convert Castle Ravenloft into Forgotten Realms, Ebberon and *Gasp* D20 Modern.

Harkon Lucas and his son?

Hey, what did Harkon and Casimir do to deserve that?
Low blow, man.


Anyways, I have a lego starwars campaign going on with Strahd as Anakin, Soth a Vader, and Azalin as Darth Siddus, Castle Ravenloft was tranported to
Endor Lego Brick by Brick by Ninja Goblins with ...
