Ch. 2-R Raven River Crossing
(Source: 5E: Curse of Strahd)

SETUP: Always check for a random encounter whenever the characters reach area R.
This stretch of the Old Svalich Road has multiple branches. One branch heads north, quickly turning into a dirt path that leads to Van Richten’s Tower on Lake Baratok (area V). One branch heads south, becoming Tsolenka Pass (area T) as it winds through the lower mountains and clings to the side of Mount Ghakis. A third branch heads west toward the Wizard of Wines winery and vineyard (area W), dipping south as it changes from a road into a gravel trail. Standing at the intersection of the Old Svalich Road and the road to the winery is a signpost:

You see a weatherworn signpost next to the road. The three arms of the sign point along the three branches of the road. The arm pointing north reads KREZK, and through the woods you can see an arching stone bridge spanning a river. The arm pointing east reads VALLAKI, and the road slopes up gradually in that direction. The arm pointing southwest reads The Wizard of Wines. The road slopes gently downward in that direction.

Welcome to The Raven River Crossing!
I figured I’d put a quick map together for the crossing as you’re supposed to roll an event anytime the players pass through. It was a really quick build, so I’m sure there are mistakes but it is serviceable, please enjoy!

Thank you.

Changelog.

Version 1.0 – Release
Version 1.1 – Added small lantern next to the sign post. Also updated name to correct name.
