do you like the Vistani? do you want to expand on the Vistani but also you aren't sure of what to change other than the Obvious Really Bad Problems They Had To Errata And Still Didn't Fully Fix It? not 100% satisfied with the direction they went in Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft? want to expand on Vistani culture and ideas but not 100% sure if you want to create a ton of homebrew or not? you interested in seeing Van Richten's 2E character growth where he was a prejudicial man who was a victim of a horrible crime but realized he can't just blame an entire ethnic group for it and gradually learned to overcome that prejudice into becoming a better man?

please consider giving Van Richten's Guide to the Vistani a read, and here's a free link! consider it me just sharing the pdf given i bought it legally so even if you for some reason don't like piracy i'm just sharing what i bought!

it's an old 2E supplement that's completely about fleshing out the Vistani. it's not a perfect guide: it's for 2E so pretty much anything it adds gameplay wise doesn't work with 5e/5.5's mechanics, some of it is still pretty dated not only mechanically but socially. but it still delves a lot into Vistani culture and stories (including some of their origin stories they claim is responsible for the Vistani becoming who they are), and the Tasaques: essentially the three large ethnic clans among the Vistani and the tribes that make up said Tasaques (i say the main group of Vistani in Barovia during CoS are Kaldresh Vatraska), and some other stuff!
