Strahd von Zarovich, the Warrior

“I am The Ancient, I am The Land. My beginnings are lost in the darkness of the past. I was the warrior, I was good and just. I thundered across the land like the wrath of a just god, but the war years and the killing years wore down my soul as the wind wears stone into sand.” -from the Tome of Strahd

Strahd was a warrior, noble and strong. But this is never reflected in his stats. Now, it is. This Strahd is a far more dangerous opponent than the 5e version. Remember, always, he is a brilliant tactician, a cunning opponent, and very hard to kill. With the Shadowblade in his hands, he is a more than a match for your Sunsword wielding holy warriors, and should be approached with the greatest of caution.  He also has all the abilities of an Oathbreaker Paladin *and* a Necromancer Wizard of his levels. CR 22. Roughly. Use at own risk. Void where prohibited.
