Return to Ravenloft, The Curse of Strahd

Return to Ravenloft

My name is Fizzing Bunghole.  I'm a fugitive of the vampire Strahd, and this is neither the beginning nor the end of my story.  Lost in a mysterious fog I found myself in a right shit hole called Barovia.  It's such a dreadful place and I was so hungover, I tried to kill myself dead, but I couldnt even do that properly, so now I'm trying to escape with new mates I met in the mist.

Wine is one of the few indulgences left for the Barovian people, and all that keeps many of them from falling entirely to despair, which makes the Martikovs a deeply appreciated family as well as a necessary part of Barovia's wellbeing.

Many Martikovs live and work at the winery:

• Davian Martikov, the current head of the family.
• Stefania Martikov, the eldest daughter.
• Adrian Martikov, the eldest son.
• Elvir Martikov, the youngest son.
• Dara Tomescu, Stefania's wife.
• Claudiu, Stefania and Dara's teenaged son.
• Martin and Viggo, Stefania and Dara's twin boys.
• Yolanda, Stefania and Dara's baby girl.

The winery suffered from attacks by the corrupted druids until the druids got The Finger.
