The third public release of the revised Curse of Strahd: Reloaded is now live!

This new release contains Arc C: Into the Valley, including the road to Tser Pool Encampment and Vallaki, and a host of additional updates and edits.

Specifically, this new update contains:

  • Old Svalich Road (I): A trio of all-new random encounters on the road to Tser Pool, including an undead family of missing Barovians and an introduction to Baba Lysaga’s avian abominations.
  • River Ivlis Crossroads: An impactful first meeting with Strahd von Zarovich that sets the tone for his relationship with the players.
  • Tser Pool Encampment: An evocative Tarokka reading and a new storytelling game for the players to play with the Vistani.
  • Old Svalich Road (II): New landmarks and encounters that foreshadow allies and foes that lie in the players’ futures.
  • Town of Vallaki: A framework for the players’ first night in Vallaki—and a surprising encounter on their first morning in the town.

Thank you as always to everyone who gave such incredible feedback, suggestions, and advice!

Cheers,
Dragna

Two questions, do you have an expected number of sessions/hours of gameplay to complete Strahd Reloaded? My players are looking at different campaign options and tend to shy away from very long campaigns. Also, do you have an expected timeline for the completion of Strahd Reloaded? If we pick Strahd for our next campaign, we will be starting it probably around February of 2024. I love what has been written so far for Strahd Reloaded but I want to make sure that there is plenty of content available when we start to minimize the amount I will have to fill in myself. Thanks!

Glad you like what I've got so far! I don't have an exact number, but I'd estimate somewhere between 50-70 sessions for a full campaign. And I'm currently aiming to have the guide finished by Christmas.

I just saw some of your Twice Bitten campaign on YouTube and it had this amazing scene where the party first met Strahd(episode 8). He charmed the party and they stood there helpless and allowed him to bite them, a fantastic, horrifying scene. I didn't notice any mention of the charming/biting in Arc C2, River Ivlis Crossroads. Was there a reason for omitting it?

Glad you enjoyed that scene! And yeah, I intentionally omitted that from Reloaded. Twice Bitten is run RAW, which means Strahd is an active and hostile antagonist from Day 1. By contrast, Reloaded approaches that antagonistic relationship with more of a slow boil—if you want players to attend the dinner at Ravenloft, for example, you can't afford for them to believe that Strahd might hurt them arbitrarily. As such, Strahd never does anything overtly harmful to the players in Reloaded until after they've already burned their bridges with him in the Heist. Hope that clears things up!
