With the creation of the Storm King’s Thunder DM Quests we wanted to clarify some questions that kept coming up about the Curse of Strahd DM Quests.

Here is a revised Curse of Strahd DM Quest Sheet and CoS DM Quest Instructions. The DMsGuild files will be updated shortly.

The following are the major changes:

DM Quest Instructions

Quests that are part of the storyline season must be started during the applicable storyline season. Most storyline quests can be finished anytime as long as they’re started during the season. There are some quests that have a definitive completion time frame and will be obviously noted. Once a quest is completed the Player rewards can always be applied.

Valid start dates. Curse of Strahd – March 4th,2016- August 25th, 2016

The rarity of spell scrolls is determined by the spell level.

1st Level. Common

2nd-3rd Level. Uncommon

4th-5th Level. Rare

6th-8th Level. Very Rare

9th Level. Legendary
