Ravenloft game thread

Technically you must already have obtained the materials (either before Barovia or in it) as you cannot convert gold into tinkerable supplies without seeking them out. If you want, you can convert any amount of your gold into tinker supplies once (to represent what had been collected before Barovia). I notice you have not spent your gold at character creation - I expect for this reason? (There will probably be a whole ton of gp in the castle anyway if you can find it)
Zinnarath's flaw: There's no room for caution in a life lived to the fullest.

lol! Definitely earns inspiration if you don't have it already!

The party continues along the road, which is no longer a steep incline, but seems to take the form of a well-cared for roadway.

There is something watching you from the woods that press in on the road. It's foggy, but you can see a few large, slow moving creatures prowling behind the dense woodland as you walk, perhaps 40ft away from the side of the group.

It becomes evident that these large creatures are watching, and moving slowly, but not attacking. Their shapes are obscured by the fog, and their presence would strike fear into even the most seasoned warriors. The biggest evidence of their presence is the sound of their feet on the twigs and leaves in the woods.

Once again you continue down the fog-shrouded road, dead leaves crackling along your track. The road splits in two. The dirt road continues to the northwest while a wide road leads east into the heart of the dense forest. Patches of cobblestone show up through the east road, telling that it was once a great road. To the right side of the fork stands a large carriage with two horses. Both horses are black as pitch. The horses snort violent puffs of steamy breath into the chill air. The carriage door swings open silently.

The creatures are still watching your 7-strong group from a distance in the woods. Their eyes occasionally glow and flicker as they do.

...that the carriage is empty. The horses wait obediently but seem eager to ride off.

Victor is certain that they are being watched by some kind of wolf. Their glowing eyes signal that these could be the legendary worgs, not as intelligent but much larger and more vicious. They have been said to track groups for miles before attacking, waiting for an opportune moment to pick off individuals. There's no way to be certain as they are obscured by the dense mist and foliage.

The carriage has a flat top and looks like it would hold weight. The windows are quite small so it's difficult to see inside, but as Victor climbs inside it seems comfortable and luxurious, albeit with a dusty mildly-perfume-like smell.
