Under raging storm clouds, the vampire Count Strahd von Zarovich stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of Castle Ravenloft. Rumbling thunder pounds the castle spires. The wind's howling increases as he turns his gaze down toward the village of Barovia. Far below, yet not beyond his keen eyesight, a party of adventurers has just entered his domain. Strahd's face forms the barest hint of a smile as his dark plan unfolds. He knew they were coming, and he knows why they came -- all according to his will. A lightning flash rips through the darkness, but Strahd is gone. Only the howling of the wind fills the midnight air. The master of Castle Ravenloft is having guests for dinner. And you are invited...

About the DM:
Hi! I'm Dreamer! I'm an avid fan of D&D and serial dungeon master. I got into D&D when I was a teenager and have been in love with it ever since! I am a huge fan of collaborative story-telling with my players and ensuring a safe space for expression and enjoyment. I lean more toward official content from WOTC, like their adventure modules, but I always try and keep an open mind for any homebrew! I can't wait to meet you guys and hopefully have you at my table!
I'm also an artist who loves drawing up characters for my groups and players alike!
Why should you join my game?
If you are looking for a consistent DM, who won't miss sessions and will give you the best experience they possibly can every session, then you are in the right place. I may struggle with voices here and there, but at the end of the day we're all here to have fun!
