A gothic horror campaign setting, where struggles against powerful forces of evil occur in a realm where heroes and villains alike find no escape. Ravenloft's roots lie in a successful Advanced D&D 1st Edition module entitled, simply, I6 - Ravenloft. A sequel, I10 - Ravenloft II: The House on Gryphon Hill, was released later. When Advanced Dungeons and Dragons moved to 2nd Edition, Ravenloft was developed into a full-fledged campaign setting. It was one of TSR's best-selling settings for most of 2nd Edition, spawning numerous supplements and a successful novel line. Ravenloft was dead for a time in 3rd Edition, supported by the now-defunct Kargatane site, until the setting was licensed by Arthaus in 2000 and produced under White Wolf's Sword and Sorcery d20 System imprint. The setting was cancelled again in 2005.
