⚰️ ESCAPE THE MISTS — A Curse of Strahd Descent into Barovia ⚰️ Paid D&D 5e · 2 Seats Open · Established Table
The mists rolled in without warning, and by the time they cleared, the road home was gone. There is only Barovia now: a dying valley where the sun never truly rises, where the wolves sing to a master they fear, and where every villager already knows how your story ends. They've seen travelers come before. None have left.
Somewhere above it all, in a castle that looms over the valley like a tombstone, the vampire lord Strahd von Zarovich watches. He is patient. He is charming. And he has been waiting a very long time for guests worth playing with.
The Tarokka cards have already been read. Fate has been dealt, the omens spoken, and the artifacts that might unmake the devil of Castle Ravenloft are scattered across haunted forests, drowned villages, and forgotten crypts. The path is set. What remains is whether your character has the cunning, the courage, and the sheer stubbornness to walk it and live.
This is gothic horror the way it's meant to be run: dread in the quiet moments, dark choices with real weight, tactical combat that adapts to the story, and NPCs brought to life with distinct voices you'll love, fear, and mourn. You won't be thrown in to sink or swim. You'll be welcomed into a warm, experienced group and guided every step of the way.
Do you have what it takes to break the curse, or will Barovia keep you forever?
DM Name: @Vvo
Game Time Monday 8pm CST, D&D 5e short campaign, dungeon crawl style. Just past the Tarokka card reading, looking for 2 more players to join an established group.
The Campaign: Legends of Barovia is a gothic horror campaign set in the mist-shrouded realm of Barovia, a land trapped under the eternal rule of the vampire lord Strahd von Zarovich. The valley is cut off from the outside world by a wall of mists, its people worn down by fear, superstition, and the ever-present shadow of the devil in the castle. Between crumbling villages, haunted forests, and forgotten crypts, the party will uncover old secrets, chase the clues laid out in the Tarokka reading, and decide whether Barovia can ever be freed. It's a darker, more atmospheric take on 5e that leans into dread, mystery, and hard choices.
Game Styles: As a PTP DM I fit my style to that of the players. This is a dungeon crawl geared toward beginner to intermediate players, so you'll be well supported whether it's your first game or your fiftieth. I've been playing with this same core group for over 5 years now, so you'd be joining a welcoming, established table with a strong group dynamic already in place.
Way We Play: Discord for voice and video, Foundry VTT for everything else.
Number of PCs Needed: Looking for 2 more to fill out a group of 5.
Rate: $25 a session.
Additional Info: This is one of 3 paid games I run in a Discord server I own. D&D is my passion, and I care about making sure every player is enjoying the game. You'll need the ability to access Foundry VTT, and either a character built there or the willingness to make one. Players 18+, and respect for the DM and fellow players is a must. If you have questions or want to know more about the game, the group, or me, just shoot me a DM and I'll be happy to answer.
⭐ For References Only — Not Booking Through StartPlaying Just to be clear: this game is not booked through StartPlaying. Everything runs through my own Discord server, and payment/scheduling is handled directly with me. I'm only sharing my StartPlaying profile so you can see my references and reviews and know you're in good hands.
