Strahd von Zarovich is a fictional character and the primary antagonist in the Ravenloft campaign setting of the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game. He is the vampire lord and ruler of the domain of Barovia. The story of Strahd is detailed in the classic adventure module "Ravenloft," written by Tracy and Laura Hickman.

Strahd was a noble and a conqueror who became a vampire after making a pact with dark powers for greater power and eternal life. However, this immortality came at a great cost, as Strahd was cursed to become a creature of the night and bound to his castle, Castle Ravenloft.

The narrative often revolves around Strahd's pursuit of a woman named Tatyana, whom he believes to be the reincarnation of his lost love. This tragic love story is central to Strahd's character, adding depth and complexity to his villainous persona.

The Ravenloft campaign setting is known for its gothic horror themes, and Strahd von Zarovich is an iconic figure in the D&D world, representing the dark and brooding vampire lord archetype. Players often find themselves in Barovia, trying to confront and defeat Strahd in a battle against the forces of darkness.
