[QUOTE="Burnside, post: 8828715, member: 6910340"] The full werewolf story. Curse of Strahd. My adventurers got into a fight with some werewolves near Kresk. Both Ezmerelda (NPC) and one PC were infected by lycanthropy during the fight. I decided that due to extensive monster-hunting experience, Ezmerelda would probably understand what had happened. She explained to the party that the curse needed to be lifted by a powerful priest (one of the party was a 7th or 8th level cleric quite capable of casting Remove Curse). The players kind of nodded and mumbled and somebody said "Oh, right, Remove Curse" but they didn't cast it. A day later, the party was attacked by dire wolves on the Old Svalich Road. I made the wolves conspicuously avoid going after Ezmerelda or the infected player. The players did notice this during the fight and nodded and mumbled "Right, because they're werewolves." Still no Remove Curse cast. Later that day, Ezmerelda parted ways with them and headed for Von Richten's Tower, hoping to find Von Richten there & that he might have a way to lift the curse (since the cleric player hadn't indicated to Ezmerelda that he could do it). Was Remove Curse cast at this time? No it was not. Next session. I started with a recap, and included, you know, the bit about lycanthropy, bites, wolves acting weird, etc. "Riiiight," said the players. Surely, you say, Remove Curse was cast? No. Wedding dress brought to Abbot. Next session, recap, lycanthropy mentioned again by me as gentle reminder. Much nodding and mumbling. Remove Curse? Of course not. Big fight at Yester Hill, many druids, blights, and berzerkers routed. Strahd cameo. Two players knocked down. Most spell slots used. Infected warlock noticeably invulnerable to non-magical damage. Next session starts with the party attempting a long rest on Yester Hill, using the bard's Leomund's Tiny Hut, and taking turns on watch. During the warlock's watch, Strahd appears, walk up to the outside of the dome. Warlock taunts him about not being able to get through the Tiny Hut. He smiles at the warlock, shakes his head as if to say "You clowns had three days to cast Remove Curse", points to the full moon, and then walks away as the warlock transforms and attacks her sleeping friends inside the Tiny Hut.
