A modest stone church with a simple spire. Inside, candlelight flickers against shadowed walls. Chanting echoes from below.
Overview
The Church of the Morning Lord is the spiritual heart of Barovia village. Father Donovitch serves as its priest, tending to the spiritual needs of the faithful—though faith grows thin in a land cursed by Strahd.
The church basement contains a terrible secret: a young man, Doru, is trapped below, transformed into something neither fully alive nor dead by Strahd's curse.
