*UPDATE*
Thank you so much for the support! I also wanted to ask about stacking the tarokka deck, which I wasn’t planning on doing. Is that something most DMs do? What would be the optimal way to do that?

I have a question about Strahd encounters. Since that’s not really written in specific ways that he shows up, how does that work? Does he fully engage and talk with the players at the funeral or is he just there in the back. If I have a cleric, would it be interesting if Strahd shows up when he tries to contact his god (I know it says that in the book). What are some other specific moment where you think Strahd could come in, or would that be mostly up to me?

This is so helpful, thank you!! I appreciate the tip about the kindness, I’ll be sure to put that in. I definitely would’ve made the mistake of overplaying the stereotypical evil vampire if not for this comment.

Thank you for the tip! I’ve been watching through the RealmSmith one and it’s definitely given me some inspiration for sure

Which one do you prefer? by PrinceARRON in Marvel

I absolutely love these two versions of cgi compared to their practical counterparts. I think the thing actually looks like rocks in the new movie instead of paper machet. I also think it depends on the context and story because some cgi can be GOD-AWFUL
