Hi all,
I’m considering running the original I6: Ravenloft (to possibly be followed with the running of I10: Ravenloft II - The House on Gryphon Hill), adapted to 3.x by me. With that said, they obviously won’t be identical to the originals. Encounters will be changed, some foes may be swapped out for other foes, traps may be different, etc. However, I am hoping to maintain the gothic horror and deadliness of the original adventure.
I will likely be incorporating a houseruled version of the rules for TAINT into this campaign, as well as a houseruled version of the SANITY rules. I believe this will help maintain the dark, horrific atmosphere that these adventures were intended to have. While your PCs may well be skilled and well learned, it will be assumed that they won’t have much experience with the type of evil and darkness that will be experienced in this adventure.
I want players who are looking for an in-depth and challenging roleplaying experience, and who will be able to roleplay well. Players that can roleplay their PCs getting corrupted or suffering from a loss of sanity, and players that are mature enough that they can deal with PC death, because deaths will be likely. Additionally, I will be making heavy use of sblocks to provide information that will only be appropriate to certain PCs. If you cannot honor the use of sblocks, and your curiosity is so high that you must read sblocks intended for others, please don’t even post your interest in playing.
These adventures will NOT be set in the actual Ravenloft campaign setting, but rather in tainted lands in my own homebrew campaign setting. Their will be some additional houserules that I will make use of. Until I proceed with a recruiting thread though, I won’t bother posting these.
Anyone that posts their interest in this thread will be given preference when/if I post an actual recruiting thread.
So, is there anyone interested in this type of game?
