Advent's Amazing Advice

Curse of Strahd (Part 2 River Ivlis Crossroad)

Added 2025-08-24 17:00:00 +0000 UTC

And so your players' time in The Village of Barovia is complete! They visited the Blood on the Vine Tavern, met Ismark, and learned of the plights his sister Ireena faces. Did your players choose to offer aid, did they make it to the church, and did they choose to slay or save Doru!

Either way, they must now leave if they have any hope of escaping this nightmarish land. They will travel across the Old Savalich Road on their way to the River Ivlis Crossroad, where they will come across familiar Barovian Scouts, perhaps retrieve Van Richten’s Cache, and most importantly, have their first fateful encounter with The Legendary Strahd Von Zarovich. How will they react? Only time will tell...

Without further ado:

Included in The AAA Collection is:

Downloadable copy of DM Notes, including links to music tracks for ambiance and fights
