This post is kind of spoiler-y. You've been warned. I also can't figure out spoiler tags on Jerboa (if you know, please help!).

We've had a blast running through the campaign. Starting in Krezk, the first experience our party had took them to the winery. Sure, that's normal enough. The Martikovs are a weird bunch, but we're helping get wine for the village. Then, the Abbott. Oh god, I've had so much fun with the Abbott ever since. They decided to use Ezmerelda's plan for the most part, only they're taking the bride to Strahd as part of the dinner.

Along the way, they've made a number of allies. Rictavio, Urwin, and of course Ezmerelda. It's a small army going to Ravenloft. The showdown is going to be epic, and my players have no idea the danger in store for them at the castle.

Strahd has one major flaw - he can easily be grappled. His lack of athletics and acrobatics bonuses really put him at a disadvantage compared to day, a fighter or barbarian. Keep this in mind.

Never engage with the party unless you have the advantage. Make them EARN their kill and close out the campaign (coming from a DM who got grappled and Strahd died in the 3rd engagement).
