Theology, Religion, and Dungeons & Dragons - Explorations of the Sacred through Fantasy Worlds

https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/theology-religion-and-dungeons--dragons-9781978716025/

[..] explores the intersection of #DnD with the academic disciplines of #Theology and #ReligiousStudies. From #Tolkien's notion of sub-creation to pedagogical ponderings on hell [..] like some during the so-called #SatanicPanic [..] Discussions on alignment and campaign settings like #DarkSun and #Ravenloft [..]

The vistani have sold out the PCs to Volenta Popovich (a Sangromancer and Bride to Strahd), who has attacked them, using her vampiric "blood hounds".

The PCs have managed to fend off these minions, but are now faced with Volenta, a handful of Vistani and another servant of Strahd, coming to her aid.

Who is assisting Volenta in the encounter?

AD&D2 module Ravenloft RQ2 : Pensées ténébreuses

Sunday, I got to run another session of my #Pathfinder #RiseOfTheRunelords campaign for my party. I got to run a full haunted house section that felt like it had the players really invested in the horror of it all. That was a trick, considering it was a sunny Sunday afternoon when we hit that part of the session and the birds were singing out in the yard.

I really love the haunt rules and mechanics in Pathfinder. I'll look to see if there are ways to integrate something like that into the original #Ravenloft module, when I finally get to run it.

It had a very Evil Dead feel for me. I really enjoy getting to really get into the descriptions of all the creepy things and getting to do some eerie voices.

My filthy story-gamer soul has one objection to @ChubbyFunsterGC's Curse of Strahd finale:

Death is a dull, lazy threat. Give me corruption. Give me consequences.

We finished the fifth module in my #Pathfinder #RiseOfTheRunelords game yesterday. I had thought the party would take two weeks to get finished, but instead of fighting their way through the Iron Cages of Lust, they bargained their way through and sent the succubus and her daughters back to the abyss where they belonged... and wanted to go anyway.

That means that next week will be #SessionZero for the original #Ravenloft module using #LightFantasy that emulates #DnD Basic/BX. We'll also be introducing new players to the group as a trial.

It'll be a nice break from dealing with feats and lengthy stat blocks in Pathfinder and act as a tryout for expanding the group for games after we finish our Pathfinder adventure path.
