[QUOTE="Bedrockgames, post: 8229761, member: 85555"] I realize that, but my point was as a reader I was unaware of his nature, and in any other setting I would assume Soth beats a vampire pretty handily, so I was seeing it from Soth's point of view in that moment (which was great because there was this dawning horror that strahd was more powerful than a normal vampire, that he had special ties to the land, and that the land played by its own rules: so seeing a character like Soth so powerful suddenly, was good horror) Also I just found this characterization of Soth one of the best Yes in terms of the details, it has been a long time since I read it, so i don't recall the precise trajectory of Soth acquiring that knowledge. I just remember being surprised by how powerful Strahd was and how trapped Soth was in this setting (I just didn't have any working knowledge of Ravenloft at that point and was a lot more familiar with Krynn) [/QUOTE]
