Publisher's blurb: Explore the centuries old history of the land of Barovia side by side with the Dread Lord Strahd von Zarovich himself! This book combines source material from decades of Ravenloft history and lore with the incredible community efforts to expand the Curse of Strahd module into 14 short adventures that chronicle Strahd's past in his own words. Along the way, characters can meet long-dead heroes and villains of the land, learn more of the history of Barovia, hold tightly to a powerful magic item, and hopefully retain their souls along the way.
