🦇 Do you want a Curse of Strahd game that’s more than just “vampires and hit points”?

I run professional, story-focused games that blend immersive gothic horror, strong character arcs, and player-driven consequences — all hosted on Roll20 with voice over Discord. Whether you're new to Barovia or looking for a deeper, darker version of the tale, this is a game where your choices matter and the mood never breaks.

🕯️ What Makes This Game Different?

• Free Session 0 to build backstories, party bonds, and set tone/safety.

• Beginner-friendly, but we take character roleplay seriously.

• No railroading — choices shape Barovia’s fate.

• Weekly consistency — I’ve run 5,000+ hours on Roll20 and keep games on schedule.

• Cinematic horror tone — less “LOL random,” more “my character is not okay.”

🎭 Table Vibe

• Think Nosferatu meets Evil Dead — long silences, twitching silhouettes, and then wham — someone's getting possessed by a ghost made of rats.

• We balance dread-soaked horror with grindhouse chaos. This is a world where shadows stalk you slowly… until the walls start bleeding and the dead won’t stop screaming.

• Perfect for players who want their gothic horror grimy, stylish, and unhinged.

• Roleplay-forward. Violence has weight. Madness has consequences.
