Use a ki point when you hit a creature and they have to pass a Con save to not be stunned until the end of the monk's next turn. Factor in the Monk's flurry of blows and multi-attacks then all it takes is one failed save for your boss to get beat down in an embarrassingly small amount of time. I love the class and I dont have any malevolent feelings towards it but I do feel like a sitcom arch nemesis when it comes to dealing with the monk Immunity to poison damage and being able to end certain status effects at will is also annoying

Last time they saw him they had pissed him off so he had Rahadin write a passive aggressive ransom note disguised a wedding invitation. They immediately picked up on the fact that the note was written by a Rahadin was being dictated to by a very angry man. The ransom separated the party by necessity, but they were still 2v1 against each of the brides (excluding Escher because he was caught being a double agent) and the Abbot. The monk fell off the stairs and Strahd was mauled to death by a hell hound... when the Bard and his pet... levitated up the central column of the stairs, on an animated church pew. It was a scene.

    This song is so accurate. The players in the CoS game I’m running sacrificed the paladin in the party by session 3. Now the druid is being manipulated by strahd to help his ends, in exchange they will be his successor and he’s starting to make all the party members think the are special and is already starting make them plot against each other. All it took was him taking them skeet shooting and the seeds were planted lol.

    @@GhostPaprika well’s it’s an evil party. The paladin was the one good guy (one must die in the death house and well you know what happened) So during the dinner with strahd they were able to convince him to do skeet shooting. So they went to one of the towers of ravenloft and he had this ballista dmg cross bow. They drank wine they stole from wizard of wines and shot strahd zombies (since he hates the zombies and tortures them for fun). He took the opportunity to “befriend” them. Harder to believe it when your best bud strahd who took you skeet shooting betrays you for his own fun and/or means. It’s harder to run CoS for an evil party but they seem to be having fun so it’s all good so far.

Like sure, Slavic horror is great (though the book's Vistani is a really bad misrepresentation of the Romani people), but I wanna T pose over Strahd to assert dominance while calling him a simp and telling him to give me his throne.

    Curse of Strahd is currently being my first time playing DnD, and I'm very excited for it, as I finished my Session 0 and will be introduced to the rest of the party at Vallaki, since I'm joining late. I went and picked a Halfling Oath of Glory Paladin, faith of The Morning Lord (not sure if that'll be a good or bad thing), made her an outsider with hot-blood and a foul mouth, full of ambition, something to balance out the other depressed PCs, especially since they don't have a healer too. My best moment so far is when fighting some evil druid and his barbarian bodyguards, getting caught in a lightning AoE by an ally then hit by a greataxe for 1/3rd of my max HP, one hit away from death, then I channel my rage into a Nat20 Divine Hammer Smite right into the enemy barbarian's balls. That shit did half his max HP while making sure he's ready for No Nut November.

    My main D&D group played weekly for two years in a Curse of Strahd campaign and this just brought back so many memories. My DM admitted to changing a bunch of stuff in the story to have the option to have positive outcomes if we were clever enough to find them, and our party was the definition of neutral good so we did. We turned Vallaki into a representative democracy, the abbott is dead and his creations are living off of his sold riches (which we didn't take a cent of) and their own potion productions, Izek is reformed and running an orphanage with Ireena, who got to meet with the soul of Sergei one last time, and Strahd is permanently dead. We played it incredibly seriously the whole way through, debating on the rights of werewolves and how best to honor the dead, and the democratic revolution of Vallaki took three whole sessions of political debates and rousing speeches. Two party members accidentally released eldritch evils from the amber temple along the way, but that's neither here nor there 😇
