Rudolf Van Richten
Van Richten is a vampire hunter, who has travelled to the land of Barovia to kill the vampire lord Strahd Von Zarovich. He gathered information in Vallaki under the guise of the half elf bard Rictavio, though he had to abandon this disguise after the drunken sons of Lady Wachter released his pet saber toothed tiger into the streets. He now resides in a tower west of Vallaki.
