Wizards of the Coast Board games Dungeons & Dragons Van Richtens

Unleash the horrors of Ravenloft hidden within this campaign supplement for the greatest role-playing game.

Fear lurks in the nightmarish realms of Ravenloft. The monster scholar Rudolph van Richten knows this better than anyone, which is why he has compiled his correspondence and investigative files into this tome of terrifying tales and truths, to arm new generations against the creatures of the night.

Discover the mysteries of Ravenloft, those misty lands where infamous dark lords lie in wait among the ageless vampires, hordes of zombies, cosmic terrors, and other horrors. It’s up to you to choose your path. Will you concoct your own Domains of Dread to host your most horrifying adventures? Or will you be among the tragic heroes, with their macabre lineages, their Dark Gifts with double-edged consequences, their haunted archetypes, and their forbidden powers?

The Guide to Van Richten’s Ravenloft is packed with ideas for players and dungeon masters eager to craft a horrific campaign for Dungeons & Dragons. You’ll discover a true treasure trove of narrative hooks, character options, and campaign customisation that will bring to life one of the most exciting game worlds in Dungeons & Dragons!
