Barovian Burgomaster's Mansion (29x20, 200px)
🕑 Added 2022-09-07 15:30:55 +0000 UTCThis one took a bit longer than expected, but I had a lot of fun working on it!
I tried to reflect the general shape of the mansion as it appears in the map of the village, but took some minor liberties here and there.
I always imagined the house of the Burgomaster in Barovia village to be a relic of sorts - the family were once wealthy, but are no longer so. They still lived a little more comfortably than the average Barovian, but they're no strangers to hard times.
I included two guest rooms, a servant's quarters (unused for a very long time - don't want to alienate the party from the siblings too much), and several chaise longues throughout the home, so that accommodations can be made for the party when Ismark invites them to his home. Though, personally, I would not recommend letting anyone sleep in Kolyan Indirovich's room - I imagine the siblings might not be comfortable with letting these strangers sleep in their recently-passed father's bed. I also left the lights out in Kolyan's room to a similar end.
I tried to include small elements of environmental story-telling here and there - Ismark's room is a little messy as I imagine he is taking the death of his father and his newfound responsibilities poorly, while Ireena's room is cleaner than her brother's as she's attempting to exercise what little control she can over her situation. There are other details here and there - plants that have been neglected since the assaults on the house started, a rather chaotic study, that sort of thing. I hope you like it!

They didn't even try to mount a rescue operation, even though there was a reminder on the login screen of my VTT :D

Yep, that's heavy. But if they took weeks to organise a rescue operation, I can see why you went that route. Poor Ireena...

She was abducted by Strahd and decided to throw herself from the cliff rather than marry the monster. My players had several weeks ingame to try and mount a rescue but they didn't so I went through with the worst case scenario.

Oh, *no*. Dare I ask how she met her end? D:

Looking at this map reminded me of Ismark not knowing yet that his sister died..... Yea my players kinda messed up big time....
