Re: New to Ravenloft? Start here!
5e has some very good things in the mix. Check Saidra's domain. Many people like the new Valachan too.

Re: Community Idea: Settlements!
Oh, it is "Nova vaasa" as in, she pretends to be from there. I.e. if I use her, that's what she would claim. And she would have spent time with the Red Academy, as a low-key wizard, but she would not stay for long before she left to take over this place. Probably Eleni of Toyalis had a han...

Re: Rule question for Dungeons and Dragons!
I would not require a system shock to be honest. However, I would (in 2e) demand 1d4 (Arm) to 1d6 (leg) damage per round to blood loss. In further editions the damage would be more.

Re: Community Idea: Settlements!
"I could have sworn there was some precedent for non-Hazlani at the Red Academy, but I cannot track it down. I'm probably just hallucinating again..." Eleni of Toyalis is Rashemani and still faces a lot of issues - although it may be because the Mulans are jelly that Hazlik's protege and a...

Re: Community Idea: Settlements!
I actually like Tabsted. However, the presence of a "Red Wizard" that created a well sounds puzzling to me. Till a few years ago, there were no arcanists allowed. The presence of a Red wizard implies this is a new thing construction. Also, she is also a wizard, probably young one despite b...

Re: A Question of Time
So... 775 to 780. And when is it supposed to actually end?

Re: A Question of Time
Officially, according to page 20 of the Ravenloft PHB , the current year is 758. According to the timeline on Mistipedia, S met the Gentleman Caller in Tepest in 758, so the published Gazetteers haven't pushed the timeline further. The Fraternity netbooks have gone into the early 760s. At what year...

Re: A map of the dread domains
And as far as your question on how to connect domains to something larger: Clusters as mentioned are usually 2-3 domains of a similar "theme". For example, three desert domains with a middle East feel are in the Amber Wastes cluster. There is another cluster of two domains locked in eterna...

Re: The Trouble with Sri Raji
I agree, this could serve as a good rumor that is not true.
I would also strongly tone down the xenophobia.

Honestly, I can see some downsides, but if it is designed well, it could work.

Re: Masque of the Red Death 5E Iconic Characters?
Gone are any PC classes that cast spells like regular fantasy characters using spell slots; instead, you can get specific magic spells by taking a Forbidden Lore, either from your Class or from your Archetype. Nobody has spell slots. Hmmm... very interesting approach; so you have access to a handfu...

Re: The Trouble with Sri Raji
I wouldn't be so sure about that; I talk about gothic horror and I use elements in my game, but I am not a hardcore gothic horror DM. I put a lot of traditional D&D tropes in my games.

Re: The Trouble with Sri Raji
While I agree with you on a technical level, I don't think this view is useful in a meta-game sense. Sri Raji is ostenably the only Indian/Hindu domain PCs will ever visit within the Demiplane, and as such it should be filled with as many exotic wonders as can be packed in. That is impossible thoug...
