Village of Barovia

This sorrowful place, haunted by the malevolent presence of Strahd, cowers beneath the looming silhouette of Castle Ravenloft, an ominous reminder of their oppressor's dominion.

Fear runs deep within the veins of Barovia's residents, their lives suspended in an unending twilight, cloaked in terror. The tyranny of Strahd von Zarovich holds them captive, rendering their movements scarce and their encounters with the outside world rare.

The village, shrouded by an unrelenting fog, may try to conceal itself from Strahd's gaze, but the vampire's watchful eyes penetrate every corner, a perpetual reminder of their abject submission. In this desolate and mournful realm, hope seems a distant memory, and the weight of their despair casts an eternal pall over Barovia.

Bildrath's Mercantile

Dim light seeps through heavy, drawn curtains, casting eerie shadows within the building. Above the weathered door, a sign sways precariously on rusty hinges, bearing the name 'Bildrath's Mercantile.' This establishment, presided over by the shrewd Bildrath Cantemir, claims to offer adventurers' gear, yet the wily merchant's selection is limited to items priced at a mere twenty-five gold pieces or less, each marked up tenfold in his cunning pursuit of profit.
