Message: <blockquote data-quote="LuisCarlos17f" data-source="post: 9499786" data-attributes="member: 6802378">A kenku in Ravenloft shouldn't too strange if the ravenkin appeared in 2nd ed and even as playable race/specie in Dragon Magazine #262 "Heroes of half-pint".We can't agree what is the 100% Ravenloft spirit because each group has got their own style. Someones would rather "Army of Darkness" and others "Alone in the Dark" or "Silent Hill". Someone would mix the lore of Ravenloft with a softer version of "Kult: Lost Divinity".Hasbro doesn't want Raveloft in 5e was only for mature readers, but with space for younger generations style R. L. Stine's Goosebums. or Scooby Doo.....or Bettlejuice. And the strategy is to allow different styles from several subgenres. In Ravenloft I miss the fight among factions we can see in World of Darkness. Other point is if there was a "saturation" of predators, the demographic decline too great to allow generational replacement. Innistrad is also relatively small. Have you played any city-builder and survival videogame? Now let's imagine the survival of towns with thousands of citizens.Lots of darklords in 2nd Ed was created to can be defeated in a "one-shot" adventure. The domains in 5e have been designed to live adventures where the confrotation against the dark lord wasn't necessary and then low-level PCs can live adventures there.Ravenloft could be right for a new class: the avenger or slayer, something like stealth and divine magic, style Blade vampire hunter or survival horror hero with a piece of divine help. Other class could be the haruxpex, close to the biomancer from Paizo's starfinder, like necromancer but altering living tissues, like an atificer using game mechanics like incarnum soulmelds. * Who would wear clown shoes in Ravenloft, any fool from the "Clownspace" or Pennywise's second cousin? * My theory is in the future some canon dark lords will die or be destroyed, as if there was a slow mini-metaplot, only to show those characters haven't to be eternal. * Some time I tried to imagine something like a Duskmourn spinoff in a postapocalypse urban zone. * Off topic: How would be a crossover Kamiwaga: Neon Dinasty and Dandadan? Too weird, wouldn't it?</blockquote>
