Has anybody so far run an adventure path in Ravenloft from start to end? - If so, what were your experiences?
Well, it's around 13 levels of play, and assuming a level every couple sessions it's only 26 sessions of play. That's two years of monthly play or a year of bi-monthly sessions. Long but not that long.

Sure, still... Did somebody do it? :)


I for my part am still stuck with d20, but I had been pondering to give "Curse of the Crimson Throne" a try, eventually.

I am not sure if I would use this in Ravenloft, though, or simply add RL elements to it.

I have friends coming to the end of Coucil of Thieves, which is about the same length. And I'm five chapters (11 or so sessions) from the end of my Dragonance campaign. So it does happen.

:) In Ravenloft? Because, to make 20 levels in the most desolate of all settings, that is A LOT, at least how I play it.

More like, in my adventures, a RL character that makes it to level 10 is already a demi-god by the game's standards.

Well, Paizo adventure paths tend to run from 1-16ish, so not quite the full 1-20. That's a little more rare.

As I said, the "Crimson Throne" seems well suited as a Ravenloft campaign.
I might try that one at some point, even.

Now, 16th level in a dynamic, Gothic-themed game?
The party would be so tainted, the darklords would appear the good guys.
