I'd like plot help with my COS endgame - Here is the setup:
>The group has created a vistani effigy to capture the soul of Strahd (lifted from Chris Perkins and Dice Camera Action)
>One of the PCs has turned out to be long dead van richten reincarnated. The Ricavio/Van Ricten character they encountered in the adventure is a Strahd plant
>Strahd's motivation in my game is to use the effigy to be brought out of Ravenloft into the Forgotten Realms. He wants to be free. Hes been double dealing the party the whole time.
>Otherwise pretty standard to the book COS.
In the final battle in the Tombs below Ravenloft the Warlock, Patron Raven Queen, used the effigy on Strahd and sucked him into it. (Natural 20 no less) Then as the party begins leaving the castle, I shift into epilogue mode, What is your characters plan - because its late and I need to work the next morning. (today)
All the PCs answer with return to the Forgotten Realms and find a way to deal with the soul of Strahd in the puppet- So far so good.
Then the guy playing the warlock says, "I'm gonna stay here and rule this place." Wow.
Thats where we stopped - None of the PCs technically know the warlocks intent, but all the players do. I'd love thoughts and input on how to handle next session
Thanks!
