Reddit mentions of Curse of Strahd (Dungeons & Dragons)

FYI this is a pretty standard price, it's only a little more than a dollar off the usual amazon price.

Books are just more expensive at the local store and it sucks. I want to support my local gaming shop, and I do buy my dice, minis, paints and special-edition books there. But it's a little unreasonable to spend almost double on a standard book because of goodwill. The first of the new waterdeep books is $49.99 at my local shop, but on Amazon BOTH books together costs about $58.

There's all sorts of pre-made campaign modules that have already established worlds and towns and people and adventures. You can find them in game stores or pretty much anywhere online. A few of them include Curse of Strahd, Horde of the Dragon Queen, and Storm King's Thunder.

Best of luck with the DMing!

Here it is

The party gets enveloped by mist and finds themselves transported to a realm of darkness ruled over by an ancient and powerful evil.

Here is your necronomicon.

The current best module that's out is Curse of Strahd . Storm king's thunder is also good. All the other ones will require a lot of prep work from the DM.

There is also a new one coming out later this month called Dungeon of the Mad Mage which seems like it's fully mapped.

My biggest complaint about 5e is that most of the official campaigns are missing a lot of maps and expect the DM to draw them.

A link? Amazon and its on sale for $30.

As for the background? Strahd is a spooky, scary vampire trying to make a woman (who looks like his long lost love) love him.

Also, if you don't want to have to create everything from scratch the pre-packaged adventure books are great. Whether you follow them, or whether you rip ideas from them, they are an amazing resource that can save you a ton of time.

• If you liked CR's Underdark arc, check out Out of the Abyss for a fantastic trek through the Underdark
  
• If you liked CR's Briarwoods arc, check out The Curse of Strahd for a sophisticated "Count Vampire" adventure
  
  The great thing about these books (and others) is you can take as much or as little from them as you like.
  
  Re: other comments about having friends, make new ones! I got into playing IRL D&D by posting on my local /r/[city] saying I was looking for a D&D group, and that I'd be happy to host. Had a weekly group going two days later. Playing D&D is a great way to become friends with people.

I maybe Module was the wrong word, The book.

amazon schijnt ze te hebben vanaf 15 maart.

You can buy official prewritten modules that are ready to play straight out of the book. You can also check out the Dungeon Master's Guild website to get free or paid adventures.

The core D&D books themselves do not have an adventure in them but there are plenty of things out there to get that are already made or you could make up your own.

The Starter Set has an adventure that lasts about six sessions, Storm King's Thunder is an adventure for levels 1-14, Princes of the Apocalypse is an adventure for levels 1-11, Curse of Strahd is a great adventure.

If you want to start writing your own adventures at some point, you should pick up the Dungeon Master's Guide and the Monster Manual.

Curse of Strahd

> Under raging storm clouds, the vampire Count Strahd von Zarovich stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of Castle Ravenloft. Rumbling thunder pounds the castle spires. The wind’s howling increases as he turns his gaze down toward the village of Barovia. Far below, yet not beyond his keen eyesight, a party of adventurers has just entered his domain. Strahd’s face forms the barest hint of a smile as his dark plan unfolds. He knew they were coming, and he knows why they came — all according to his plan. A lightning flash rips through the darkness, but Strahd is gone. Only the howling of the wind fills the midnight air. The master of Castle Ravenloft is having guests for dinner. And you are invited.

A DnD Adventure Module The Curse of Strahd

My SO already ran a module in that book, which almost killed us all hahaha

Also if this is your first time I really recommend you use one of the prewritten adventures.

Curse of Strahd is a great one.

This will give you all the pre-drawn maps, established story, encounters, etc that you will need. Takes a lot of the work out of crafting an entirely unique adventure and allows you to focus on DMing.
