The Tempter

A 2 Hour Season 4 Adventure for Tier 2 Released on June 6, 2016

The people of Orașnou are desperate. The village is on the brink of starvation and has little chance of surviving the harsh winter. Even if they had enough food and supplies, Lord Strahd’s taxes are due, and the ruler of Barovia does not accept excuses as payment. The Burgomaster and others in the village have recently learned of a wealthy estate that might have enough resources to solve both of Orașnou’s problems. It is a temptation he cannot afford to resist or can he?

Part Nine of the Misty Fortunes and Absent Hearts series.

Story Awards

Cursed by Greed

Blinded by greed, you have been cursed by an ancient family. Because of this, you are affected by a permanent bestow curse. While so cursed, you have disadvantage on ability checks and saving throws made with an ability score determined randomly by the Dungeon Master. This curse can only be removed by spending 10 downtime days returning the Fidatov family treasure to the crypt or by leaving the Demiplane of Dread.

The Demiplane of Dread

You have traversed the mists and now find yourself in the Demiplane of Dread and, until this story award is removed, you are unable to leave. So long as you are trapped, you cannot participate in any adventure or event that takes place outside of Barovia. Tread carefully during your time here, the Dark Powers are watching.
