It's spooky season here on Tavern Watch, so we're playing something appropriately spooky -- Shadowdark! But a spooky old-school-esque system isn't enough on its own, so we're diving back into one of the most classic horror tabletop game modules of all time -- the original I6: Ravenloft for Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1E. When new spooky rules meet old haunts, will our heroes survive the night?
Episode two finds our trio of adventurers exploring the dusty back hallways and secret corridors of Castle Ravenloft, meeting some unusual individuals -- some of whom have unusual tastes, while others just want to be left alone. Our brave adventurers include:
This is the second in a three-part game of Shadowdark! You can check out the first episode here, and look for new episodes every Monday.
This game was played in Shadowdark, an Ennie-Award-winning tabletop RPG that marries the familiarity of D&D with the stripped-down, rulings-not-rules sensibility of older versions of the same game, yielding something that's fast, fun, and easy to play. Shadowdark places an emphasis on being easy to understand and easy to run, making it a great game to pick up and play -- even if it's your first tabletop game! If you're interested in picking up your own copy of Shadowdark, you can grab it at The Arcane Library. If you want to check out our adventure in Ravenloft for yourself, you can pick up I6: Ravenloft from the DM's Guild. (We're also using Venatus Maps' Castle Ravenloft Battle Maps to play in these episodes.)
