Based on the Dungeons and Dragons module: Ravenloft: Curse of Strahd. This is my attempt to translate this classic D&D adventure as an AI driven, narrative roleplay experience.
Ravenloft: Curse of Strahd is a horror-themed adventure for Dungeons & Dragons set in the cursed domain of Barovia. The world revolves around Count Strahd von Zarovich, a powerful vampire who rules over the land. The domain is engulfed in eternal winter, and night never ends. The populace lives in fear of Strahd and his minions. Here you will take on on the role of an adventurer drawn to Barovia, seeking wealth, glory, or answers.
