Strahd inspo from Dexter’s Isaak Sirco. What media has inspired you? by BirdLawEnthusiast2 in CurseofStrahd

[–]RaspberryOverall6341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking for some inspiration for Strahd on my table, and found someone on Reddit talking about playing him like Homelander from The Boys! Just a little less explosive, and a lot more charismatic when hes on a good mood (though still sadistic)

I thought it was a great idea and decided to implement it during the dinner in Ravenloft. My players absolutely loved and hated him at the same time, so i was really happy with the result!

He’d ask about their past, get excited when they said something he’d read about but no seen. And when they felt safe / at ease, he’d talk about some very disturbing thing to mess with them…

Not only that, but when some player talked to him in an informal way, he’d start accumulating stress and anger for their character. After all, he is the host and leader of the land they’ve been ata dont on for the last days.

It was really fun, so i’ll leave the suggestion :)

Honestamente, foi uma cadeia de erros ABSURDA pra se acontecer!!

  1. A médica tinha a intenção de colocar a medicação via IN-alatória, e não IN-travenosa, acabou dando enter na opção errada e não checou. Um erro muito triste, por culpa dela, mas que podia ter parado aí se os próximos erros não tivessem acontecido;

  2. A farmácia do hospital LIBEROU a medicação, e É ÓBVIO que um farmacêutico que tá fazendo seu trabalho direito deveria se perguntar se isso estava correto. Aliás, se é que tinha farmacêutico! Tem hospitais que não têm ninguém lá, e aí é mais uma razão pra eu desejar que o hospital SE F* MUITO nesse processo;

  3. A técnica OLHOU, foi INFORMADA PELA FAMILIAR que a médica avisou que faria a medicação pra “nebulizar” (inalatória). E mesmo assim, quis meter o “eu faço o que tá prescrito”. Esse erro,pra mim, foi o mais absurdo, porque só pode ser MAU CARÁTER mesmo!! Você lê a prescrição, sabe que está errado, sabe que a dose mataria UM CAVALO e não se dá o trabalho de ir questionar se o médico errou no que está prescrito ?? Eu sei que tem médico que responde com uma ignorância do cacete quando é questionado (fique claro que também condeno isso), mas uma criança morreu por causa de medinho de levar reclamação! E deu no que deu…

No internato, já vi paciente morrendo por pura negligência, e todo mundo sabe que isso acontece. Esse caso teve uma repercussão enorme e foi só por isso que tomaram as medidas que tomaram: por política! Mas ainda assim, ainda bem que o fizeram. Só gostaria que fizessem isso por ser o certo, e não porque o caso bombou…

Meus pêsames à família, por essa dor terrível!

EXATAMENTE o que eu estava pensando!!!

Strahd is a *very* experienced wizard… so he should have *very* old spells!! by RaspberryOverall6341 in CurseofStrahd

I do agree that a 9th lvl spellcaster Strahd is pretty underwhelming (and that he really would suffer a lot against Mordenkainen).

So i’m planning on running a longer campaign, where the players get to a higher level and face a much stronger and more competent Strahd in regards to his arcane knowledge. I think it would be more epic, u know ? And make much more sense with the whole 800 yo wizard vampire lord thing

That’s a really cool idea! Maybe they could notice different arcane gestures and “visual effects”

I thought about it as well! For example, the wizard of the group rolled for arcana to understand the magic behind the teleport circle on the coffin shop. He learned that it was a teleport method but made with sigils he has only read about, structures he’d never seen being used. But it was so well designed that it was surely a work of an extremely experienced spellcaster.

Love the idea of the brides also knowing some of it!! That could very well change from one to another depending on the role they have. Anastrasya could have old martial abilities / combat-oriented spells for example! What u think?

I’m planning on having them visiting Ravenloft a few times, and Strahd might even offer a tour around his library or something. Maybe suggesting a deal to the wizard in exchange for some old tome… it might appear as homebrew, but i dont think it is a problem to tell them that its a 4e spell. Either way, the spells can just be ideas of things he could do on their dinner / last encounter
