hi again everyone we had our first session friday for curse of strahd and i think it went exceedingly well but we have currently only 5 players which is very good but i would prefer to have 6-7 in case someone is not available for a session as my rule is minimum 4 players to run a session as curse of strahd can be quite deadly....I realize that 7 players does bog down combat alot but in my experience most times there is usually 1 or 2 players missing at every given session as life does happen lol so myself and the group are willing to have on the odd occassion 7 players to be sure we never drop below 7 which is my cutoff if intrested in giving it a whirl pm me the games are every friday at 630pm EST thanks

I don't have a module preference but that just means I can fit in anywhere! Uou can check out my ready-to-play characters below and see which ones would best or worst fit each module.
(race, class, background, alignment)
leonin, monk (Way of the Four Elements, Earth), Inheritor, chaotic good Aasimar, bard (College of Glamour), Exiled noble, lawful good Fairy, cleric (Life Domain, Eachthighern) and rogue (Inquisitive), Far Traveler, lawful good (cleric-turned-reluctant-rogue) tortle, rogue (thief), urchin, neutral good half-dwarf Aarakocra, barbarian (Path of the Totem), Haunted One, Lawful good (can't fly/crippled & doesn't know about Regeneration, but I do want him, eventually, to regain his wings)
Actual backstorys are (summarized) below, but most are 5 sentences or less, so don't worry. ;)
leonin, monk, Way of the Four Elements (Earth) Inheritor (/Far Traveler), chaotic good Igne always knew he was different, though he didn’t exactly understand how and, unfortunately, that was the problem. Igne was born slow-minded in the Skyfire Wastes, where life was too hard to let live anyone who couldn't be relied on to pull their own weight, so his tribe left him to die as a child. Instead, he found a legendary earth elemental relic and formed an attachment to rocks. Ten years later, he now wanders the world accompanied by an earth minimental attracted to his relics, trying to collect one of every kind of rock and visit the Earth Elemental Plane, if only he didn’t believe clay workers & glassblowers were earth mages, glass was a special kind of see-through rock, and lava was earth blood.
Aasimar, bard (College of Glamour) Exiled noble, lawful good (must be read in a snobby, supercilious tone or you’re doing it wrong) As a babe, I was chosen amongst all other infants in the clan for an arranged marriage to ensure continued peace between warring factions, and thus was given luxurious care and exorbitant schooling to become a most excellent companion for my Intended. Between lessons, my every whim was indulged and every wish fulfilled, until one season before my wedding, when my Hatfield fiancé suddenly died, leaving me without any support since I now served no purpose to Clan McCoy. My entire life, everyone in the clan told me I was special and destined for greatness, and now they want to throw me away! Before they could take back everything they’ve ever given me, I grabbed as much of MY stuff as I could and ran off in the middle of the night, vowing to return one day to show them how I had managed to achieve my great destiny without them. Instead of recognizing how wonderful and special I am, everyone I meet keeps calling me ridiculous or spoiled rotten, and if even one more tavern drunkard tells me to, “Just shut up, bard, and play another song!”, I swear I’ll have Mittens, my elephant companion, squash them, even if it gets me banned from yet another tavern!
Fairy, cleric (Life Domain) and rogue (Inquisitive) Far Traveler, lawful good Do you know how hard it is for fey to establish themselves in a career on the Prime Material Plane? Once I was a life cleric of Eachthighern [ek-tee-arn] and living my dream working as the renowned, well-esteemed head chief of an important noble household, then I was framed for poisoning a visiting Duke and imprisoned for my so-called crime. Now, I’m a rogue on the run, trying to clear my name & determine who framed me & why.
tortle, rogue (thief) urchin, neutral good Callie had fond memories of living in a merchant caravan and it taught her many useful skills (how to haggle, how to recognize when a deal was good or bad, and how to handle the dangers encountered on the road), but that life ended when a sickness swept across the land, killing most caravan members, including her parents. By the time the pandemic had run its course, Callie was left penniless, friendless, and alone in a strange land with only one item not stolen: the family’s heirloom magic ring that allowed the wearer to wild shape like a druid into housecats. At first, she resisted the efforts of the local street kids and gangs that encouraged her to steal (she knew the value of hard work and had been raised to hate thieves) but a girl’s gotta eat, and she eventually became an expert cat burglar (pun totally intended) with the help of her family ring. Now that she’s old enough to earn a proper wage, Callie is trying to leave her thieving ways behind her, but bad habits die hard. Maybe if she joins a travelling adventure group, she can satisfy her sticky-fingered and excitement-craving urges while still doing honest work.
half-dwarf Aarakocra, barbarian (can't fly/crippled & doesn't know about Regeneration, but I do want him, eventually, to regain his wings) Haunted One, Lawful good My father was a dwarf with delusions of grandeur and my mother was the unlucky aarakocra caught by his sellswords to be forcibly bred at his leisure. After she managed, eventually, to break free of her chains and escape, pregnant, back to her home, the elders ignored my mother’s pleas to be rid of my egg because our colony was small and they believed she would grow to love me in time, despite her vows of enmity, but they were wrong and my mother’s hatred only grew with time, going from unable to tolerate my presence as I was lovingly raised by others to unwilling to tolerate my existence. I still remember that day so vividly: I was lying on the soft grass, my wings still small and covered in down, playing with toys of stitched cloth and carved wood when the angry lady who only ever looked at me with glares landed beside me, scooped me up and took flight, telling me why she always glared at me as she flew, and then, when we were high over the forest and far far from the colony nest, let me go to smash against unforgiving tree branches and the ground. Nearby druids heard my screeches as my fluffy, down-covered body fell, saved me, and welcomed me into their tribe, but being unable to understand each other at first, nicknamed me Sky Song, before they knew I was a crippled bird who would never fly. They did their best to heal my mangled body and traumatized child’s soul, but they could only do so much: my body is covered in scars, my wings are bent and broken, incapable of supporting flight, and the same anger that ruled my mother now festers within me also. I am an aarakocra with no colony, a being meant for the skies yet chained to the earth; calling what I feel ‘anger issues’ doesn’t really cover it. I stick to the woods because new people stare at me as an object of fascination and pity, but my tribe has asked me to go on a quest for ___ and I will, because they have always made me feel accepted and welcome, even mourning alongside me after the tribe healer admitted she could never heal me enough to fly. I will do this for them. I will risk my life, face the inevitable hardships and dangers of the road, and endure the whispers and less-than covert glances of those I encounter, then I will return home and never leave our tribal woods again.
