So in my COS, Strahd made a deal with Death to grant him vampirism. (dont like the amber temple thing) It seems that Orcus, would be a good entity to have granted this & made a deal with him.
My understanding is that the Demi planes of dread are carved out of the Shadowfell, which irritates the Raven Queen.
In my campaign Strahd has escaped Barovia, his motivation all along, though not in the method he intended due to player actions; Hes incorporal, at least for the time being.
Some questions I need help answering, and I appreciate any input:
>Why would Orcus set Strahd up as a vampire? Is he hiding something there in Barovia, or just wants to irritate the Raven Queen
>Why does Strahd now want to escape the deal? Is he running from Orcus, confronting him? It would be nice to avoid "wants to be a god" plot.
>I feel like this may set up a three way thing between Strahd, Orcus and the Raven Queen; How could the party be involved in that?
I understand that yall don't know my campaign, but it helps me to think things through by typing; And I really would love some input.
