Vallaki
There is no light in the eyes of the men that feed off this land. They are as dead as the dead.
A log wall encircles the main village of Barovia, guarding them from the monsters outside. The inhabitants at first glance don't seem like those in Barovia (village), but one quickly finds out that this is a false image. As everywhere in Barovia, hope has died here a long time ago. The buildings aren't quite as worn and weathered as in other places, and the street is well-kept. Remnants of festivals can be seen around the town, with old and new posters and notices still plastered to walls.
To the north of the town lies Lake Zarovich, before serving as fishing grounds but recently run empty. To the south lies the Ruins of Berez, a ruined village that incurred the wrath of Strahd von Zarovich and was swallowed by the river as a result. To the south-west lies Argynvostholt, the ruined home of an ancient order that's said to have housed a dragon. To the west, just outside of town, lies a permanent Vistani Encampment following the banishment of their kind from the town by Vargas Vallakovich.
There are several buildings of note in the village, among others Saint Andral's Church, the Blue Water Inn, the former Burgomaster's Mansion, the Wachterhaus, Blinsky's Toys, and the Vallaki Orphanage.
After the death of burgomaster Vargas Vallakovich, the town is currently led by Fiona Wachter.
