Continuing our Adventures in Steymhorod series, in this epic session, our adventurers succumbed to the lycanthropy coursing through their veins and transformed into werewolves. That same evening, they re-encountered an old foe, Rodian, and a horde of wildmen.
Campaign Diaries
Adventures in Steymhorod: The Beginning
In this post, we set up our first ever campaign diary for Adventures in Steymhorod! To set up this spin-off from our main campaign, we let secondary characters pick up one of our minor villains while our heroes busied themselves with larger-scale conflicts. They followed a vampire’s spirit through a blood tornado and, next thing they knew, found themselves in the demi-plane of Steymhorod.

Death House: The Duet Revamp
Death House provides an incredible introduction to the world of Barovia and offers the DM a chance to introduce your primary player to the major themes that Curse of Strahd explores.
Curse of Strahd: The Duet Revamp
The Curse of Strahd Duet Revamp approaches this excellent book with the aim of making the content work for adventuring parties of one player and one DM. This is accomplished by making the player character the object of Strahd’s obsession, tweaking of encounters, and reorganizing the suggested sequence.
Running Curse of Strahd One-on-One
Running Curse of Strahd with one player and one DM presents opportunities for rich character development set against a beautifully gothic backdrop. However, when considering this campaign for one-on-one D&D, DMs should adjust encounters, start the party off at a higher level, and tailor content.
