515) When buying supplies for an extended expedition, I shouldn't spend the entire budget on either kumquats or candles.

516: My Ravenloft bard is not permitted to be the distraction by pulling a Pied Piper routine, causing the population of Barovia to follow behind her... while playing and singing "The Safety Dance" on her hurdy-gurdy.

And so, the campaign drifted into a Marathon Man / Footloose crossover.

"Necromance if you want to, we can bring your friends to life.

517. My (officially Chaotic Neutral) Bard is not to be working to become the game's BBEG by using Strahd von Zarovich as her catspaw to gain the power to become a darklord in her own right, by secretly acting as Strahd's loyal minion in the party working against the Count.

(Hey, when your motivation is "I will do anything to break the cycle of reincarnation," all options are on the table. At present, the half-baked plan to break the cycle is "eat Harkon Lukas's heart and take his place as the darklord of Kartakass", at least until a better plan comes along.)

That's... oddly specific, for something you're not allowed to do in some other RPG. I suppose if you do find yourself considering that exact sequence of events with Zarovich in the future, at least you'll know you failed to break the cycle of reincarnation. Now, how to remember from one cycle to the next?
