Join me as I play with Hero of the Lance member Derek and Joe in the adventure Curse of Azrael with the D&D Adventure Cooperative Game. This is the third in a series of customized Dragonlance themed adventures we will be playing. D&D Adventure Cooperative Games are a series of Board Games initially released in August 2010. Castle Ravenloft was inspired by the original Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game adventure by Tracy and Laura Hickman.You can buy the board game here: https://amzn.to/3pMS9JM
Character Backgrounds
1. Lord Soth Series (Castle Ravenloft Board Game)
- Fighter – Arjhan
- He has lived most of his life in hiding, defending his version of good and fighting injustice in the name of Kiri-Jolith. He is a flame draconian with a hatred for evil, he sees himself as an abomination made from evil. He is stoic in nature and will lay down his life if necessary for his companions.
- Cleric – Thorgrim of the Iron Head Clan
- A Neidar Dwarf raised in the city of Solanthus that follows Reorx. He has a brash demeanor with a zellios nature for destroying undead and drinking dwarf spirits. Fiercely loyal to his friends and has a weakness for finely crafted items of the forge.
- Ranger – Alan / Allisa
- He is a Human Ranger who is searching for artifacts to help save his small village. I’ve heard stories of the great treasures that Castle Ravenloft might contain so I will do whatever it takes to retrieve them and help my people. And I’m really good at killing stuff, sometimes.
Recap
- This is the third in a four part customized Dragonlance themed adventure arc. In part one Thorgrim, a Niedar Dwarf Cleric of the Iron Head Clan and Arjhan, a Flame Draconian fighter for Kiri-Jolith entered a secret tunnel beneath Dargaard Keep in search of an ancient amulet that is rumored to play a part in the downfall of the Death Knight Lord Soth who plagues the lands of Nightlund. They were not successful in escaping with the artifact and fell in the darkness.
- The second adventure featured Alan, the human ranger of Chislev entering the dungeon after Thorgrim and Arjhan. The mists of Ravenloft surrounded them and transported them all to Sithicus. In order to escape they searched for the experiment to escape the mists but at the last moment it was taken by Azrael, Lord Soth’s seneschal. Thus begins today’s adventure, Curze of Azrael.
Adventure Arc

- When we discover the Fetid Den
- You enter a room with the fetid smell of death and decay. Piles of bones lie about the room, and a large, fur-covered creature crouches over its meal. Azrael slowly stands and turns toward you, his next victims. But where is the sorcerer’s experiment?
