Strahd Von Zarovich for Blue Rose / True20

True20 might be dead, but that's doesn't mean I have to like it.  So to celebrate the new version of Blue Rose AND the start of my month of vampires here at the Other Side.   Here is D&D's first "Vampyre", Strahd as he appears in my Black Rose games.

That picture has to be one of the most iconic pictures for "old school roleplaying", Dungeons& Dragons, Ravenloft, and fantasy art in general. It's kind of creepy how great and inspiring it is, if you really think about what it represents!

Ah, I miss the brief heyday of True20. It gave D&D a flavour of OtE, or straight-trait Fudge... truly small "c" character centred.
