Description
- S2: The author of a letter found in the secret room, addressed to a ‘pathetic servant.’ The letter mocks the recipient’s attempts at immortality and their descent into madness, signing off as ‘Your dread lord and master.’
- S6: The undead lord of Barovia, referred to by locals as ‘the devil.’ The Vistani women describe him as coming from a royal bloodline, dying centuries ago yet enduring as one of the undead. He is obsessed with a Barovian peasant girl named Tatyana and named his castle after his mother, Queen Ravenovia.
- S10: The dread lord of Barovia who appeared outside St. Andral’s Church during the battle. He observed the chaos before engaging the party, struck Father Lucian down with a single blow, unleashed a devastating fireball that nearly wiped out the party, and then turned invisible and vanished. He taunted the party, stating their meeting was long overdue.
