    This is a starting point for any DM that wants to run the Curse of Strahd campaing for Dungeons & Dragons 5e. It's a quick walk through the land of Barovia, that will help you feel the ground under your feet before delving deeper into preparation

    2 truths and a lie: Barovia is a soul trap, Ireena eventually escapes the soul trap, and Strahd always comes back.

    This campaign was amazing. I was a player from start to finish. I love the characters in this my DM presented. Though it will always bother me that Ireena is called Ireena..For our campaign it was Irina. Which feels a lot more like a real name. Outside of that Vallaki was incredible. I love all the political intrigue.
