One of the PCs was a Thief-Acrobat, from the 1E Unearthed Arcana. He may have been a bit cocky.I generally played Strahd as being very, very cat and mouse with the PCs. He would frequently engage with no intent to actually kill them, just demoralize. During one of these encounters, the aforementioned Acrobat decided to charge Strahd and tackle him -- while Strahd was standing at the back edge of the castle. You know, the part that has the scenic view of the valley 1,000 feet below. Well, Strahd just kinda went with it and they both tumbled over the edge. I believe Strahd returned the grapple to prevent any sort of slow-fall or catch attempt, made some comment about that character not being the brains of the party, and turned into gas about halfway down.That time, there were no additional opportunities for saves given.</blockquote>
