Help with player’s character backstory
I’m going to be DMing Curse of Strahd in a couple of months for three players, so we’re currently in the character creation/pre-Session 0 discussion. I sent my players the “player introduction” post from this subreddit, which clarified to them what to expect from this campaign and to hopefully help shape their expectations accordingly.
One of my players had the idea to play a warlock, whose patron is a Medusa-like gorgon trapped in the Faewild, who requires the warlock to occasionally kidnap beautiful people for her statue garden in the Faewild. I’m uncertain about agreeing to this, purely because I’m not sure how it would impact the game overall. What do other people think? My player is more than willing to adapt things and change their character if needed. I’m just not sure if it would have a negative impact on the campaign and take away from the story. Any thoughts and feedback would be appreciated! Thanks!
