Our group's chosen NPC from the card draw was Sir Godfrey. Spoiler: he is a knight of a fallen order who was killed by Strahd. I have been playing up the chivalrous side of Sir Godfrey, so when he first encountered Strahd he launched into a short speech about how he had sworn vengeance. So of course Strahd said: "I killed you too quickly the last time. A mistake I don't mean to duplicate tonight."
