Café de Nuit

The mists have snatched you and taken you into the demiplane of dread. What would you be? Would you be a hero, fighting against the darkness, or would you succumb to the dark powers and become a darklord yourself?

I envision myself as a dark hero, constantly walking the line between good and evil. I want to do good, but I am very jaded by all that I have seen and experienced. In moments of passion I probably would have made a few power checks. Still, it's my sense of justice and rightness that keeps me from spiraling further down the path of corruption.

I would be the wandering encounter that cuts a swathe of death and destruction through the countryside.

The same thing if I found myself in Silent Hill.

Commit Suicide.

I was a knight in a previous life and would be one again.

Scared. Very, very scared.

Er... is fuXX0red too naughty a word for this board?

I would be a farmer or sage. Away from the terrors and horrors. I would make about 6-7 children. So when the Vampire steals one and the Werewolf eats another I would still have plenty so I wouldn't give up or die of grief.

Niiiice!!!!

I would make my way to southern Lamordia and become an inventor. Just knowing what little I do about modern technology would allow me to become fabously wealthy and as Lamordia has litle in the way of little nastys (no wandering wolf packs or creatures possing as your neighbor to hunt you) I would be mostly safe and comforatble.

Myself, I'd move to Mordent, grow a beard, dye my hair grey, develope a funny accent and buy a rocking chair. I would then sit on a porch all day and inform passers-by that "You don't wanna go down that raud" or "You don't wanna stay in that hause." or "You don't wanna fish in that lake."
Its the perfect job - pleanty of fresh air, perfect job security, and meet pleanty of interesting people just before they die.
Best of all, I'd be able to chew the scenery without the slightest risk. And, if anyone ever proves me wrong and defeats the evil, I can back track and say; "What? No, I meant that other raud. Lotta history down that raud."

Umm...knowing what I know about Ravenloft and D&D?

I'd clean up. Seriously, Van Richten would have nothing on me. I'd go to Mordent and work with the Weathermays and the Anchorites, and I'd spill the beans for them on every DL, powers checks, domains, borders and more. I'd have to be careful at first because the bad guys would want to kill anyone with their secrets, but it wouldn't take too much to convince the good guys that I knew my stuff. I'd have to come up with a plausible story as to how I know it, but that's no biggie in a world with Vistani seers and whatnot.

Beyond that, I'd become a priest or a paladin, probably with a little bit of bard thrown in. I'd still be LDS, so who knows? Maybe I could start knocking on doors all over Mordent and start up a congregation!

If I was really hard pressed, I'd join the Carnival and share all my knowledge with Isolde. Seriously, my childhood taught me to ignore how people look, so I could care less whether I got some kind of deformity.

And just remember to die elsewhere then in Mordent

Me, I'd go to a large city and try to use my scientific knowledge to become famous

Joël

I'd begin studying magic, and hope the DM doesn't nerf my favourite spells!

List of things to do if I land In Ravenloft:

- See if I disappear if I say the word 'Soth'
- Have a pint with Harkon Lukas...but only if there are other people in the bar.
- Count how many red-heads avoid me if I carry around a can of RAID
- Hook up Jacqueline Montarri with the Headless Horseman. It could work!
- Throw cat knip at Urik von Kharkov
- Start a religion of my own deifying a puppet named Banjo, since all other deities in Ravenloft are just the dark powers playing on the beliefs of mortals any way (OOTS anybody?).
- Tell Gwydion every fairy tale I know from the other side of his cage...twice
- See how many powers checks I can fail by stealing candy (it's technically theft).
- Start a play in Dementlieu called "Spring Time for Drakov and Falkovnia"
- Pit goblyns
- Then pit Zombie goblyns (it could happen)
- Streek all of Keening (also being sure to bring ear plugs).
- Put alkazelter in ever body of holy water I find.
- Pay people in Darkon to scream 'Firan smells' as loud as they can...see how long they last.
- And finally...ask Azalin if he can make a Bourito so hot that even he can't heat it!

I'd just end up working for one Darklord after another, same as I do in this world.
