[OOC] Curse of Strahd [5E]

[Mae]

---

The mournful, bitter wind screeched around street corners and hammered on bolted doors, a violent storm dancing in the skies above the dismal village. What few villagers still lived cowered in their homes, calming the children that dared cry and praying for the ones who had never uttered a peep. Far above the streets of dilapidated buildings and abandoned houses, the ancient walls of Castle Ravenloft loomed like a spectre in the night. An odious rumble and a crack of white illuminated the stark figure standing alone on the parapet. His cape billowed and snapped in the howling wind, his cold calculating countenance a handsome but frightful visage to behold. The ravages of madness, power and tragedy danced along the thin razor edge of his emerging smile. Adventurers had just entered his ancient domain.

He did so enjoy breaking in new guests.

Didn't even see this was up!

[Mae]

@ScreenAcne@Lauder@ERode@Asura Welcome to the thread! I hoped to get it all prettied up by now but alas my BBCode skills aren't up to scratch. Feel free to add your character sheets up to the Character Tab. We are missing a couple of small details here and there, but there's nothing big to stop this game getting on the road ;)

EDIT: First post is up for y'all. Feel free to post

[Lauder]

This will be most fun!

[ScreenAcne]

shit, slap, my cylinders and, motherfucking, let the metal foot loose. I'm more into the horizion than a bird with a home troubles in the middle of winter for this dungeon of dice.

[ERode]

Yo @Mae, what sorta first impression did the Chamberlain give off?

[Asura]

Where the discord @.

[Mae]

@ERode He's a very busy man, he makes sure you guys are well paid and while he does seem to concern himself with the goings on of the townsfolk, he often has a lot to contend with at the top level so little is seen of him. Word around town is he is skilled at keeping things oiled and running, not particularly disliked or liked one way or the other. He's an older man, average height, rotund, white hair and balding, dressing always as one would expect someone of his position but not ostentatiously.

@Asura Here ya go discord.gg/Acn5eKt

[Mae]

Do you guys want a couple more free posts to chat before the next GM post or are you ready for the NPC to pop up?

[ScreenAcne]

@Mae

shit, sister, release the reason to our inveitable treason at any speed in which you need. I'm, motherfucking, more flowing in the wind than the gangly parts of a delirium old mans past sins.

[Mae]

Post will be up shortly, let me know if you are buying supplies / what you are buying. We'll move forward to the caravan area with a pitstop at the General Store.

EDIT: Post up. Feel free to let me know if you are doing something specific at any particular mentioned in the post.

Mirror is looking around the camp to see if there are any weapons on or near these people, I believe its mentioned towards the end of the second paragraph. Then she also relays the message of the Chamberlain.

perception time?

[Mae]

Sorry for the dissapearing act! I'll have something up next few days though likely without formatting, due to typing slowly on the phone (and being a lowkey technophobe.)

[Mae]

sorry for dissapearing over the christmas period everyone. Is anyone still interested in continuing? I entirely understand if not, I'm the one who dropped the ball here.

@ScreenAcne@Lauder@ERode@Asura

[Lauder]

@Mae

I'm still down to play!

[Asura]

Same.

[ScreenAcne]

shit, I'm always down to the ground like a fat mans ass getting gravity bound.

[ERode]

Mm, think I already said so in the Discord, but I'll be dropping out at this point. Hope y'all have fun with Strahd-seducing~
