I wrote a guest blog over at High Level Games entitled 5 Things to Know Before Writing A Ravenloft Adventure for DMsGuild which explores my adventure design process and experience with DMs Guild. Might be interesting for some prospective writers! Also, prolific reviewer Merric has put up his review ...

Ok, so Quickleaf sorted out my problems with accessing his product. Big thank you to him for that. About the adventure. As previously written, it's equally usable in CoS, Ravenloft Setting Barovia or even as a little domain in it's own right. It looks good and is chock full of interesting NPCs with...

@De Montour Glad we could work it out! You're right, it may be a daunting adventure for a new DM, especially because of all the NPCs and clues. I decided to go with designing toward an optimistic view of DM intelligence and capability, however, and tried to offer resources to make it easier (e.g. sp...

Good idea. Would you like me to delete my Beast of Graenseskov post (if the boards let me do that) and put my announcement here so as not to clutter the forum?

Well done! I'll have to buy it when I get home. I'm likely to pilfer ideas I like from it for my own campaign ;) The part is on their way to Barovia so I'll definitely be interested in seeing what you've done here. I'll look forward to hearing about your play-through :) It's definitely meant to hav...

Somewhat back on topic, my next Ravenloft supplement is live on the DMsguild: Children of the Night I'm excited to share the work I did making this book and happy to get the monsters out to the larger public. (And alhoon, whose name should be on the credits, but totally slipped my mind, so next tim...

Thanks. If I may suggest, you should put that info in the product page; that it can be used for both "traditionalist" and "Curse of Strahd" games. I took your advice and clarified that it can be used for both. Thanks for your support guys. Look forward to hearing how it goes for...

Well, I took the jump and bought it. Minor problem though. The site shows it as Watermarked PDF. It's not. It's a Zip File and I can't open it on my I Pad. The preview is in PDF format though and it looks lovely. A very impressive piece of work. I was a young man when Barovia first got enveloped by...

Good. Is it loyal to the CoS? Or you go by the setting? I'd say it's mostly impartial, with tidbits the DM can pick and choose from to go either way. For example, I name-drop Nova Vaasa in a couple spots as having merchants traversing Old Svalich Road through the Graenseskov & I mention "i...

I thought I'd give out a shout to all you hardcore long-time Ravenloft fans: I've written a sizable adventure for 5e set in the Graenseskov (eastern Barovia) that is inspired by The Beast of Gévaudan, the Allerleirauh (Thousandfurs) fairy tale of the Brothers Grimm, and the 2001 film Brotherhood of ...
