"I will, thanks!" Almond walks out of the room and up to his own room. He gets showered, dries off and decides to take a nap.
-
"Who's that? I have a hard time believing that anyone can produce that much water just from crying." He turns to Mead Bush "And you, who do you think you are imprisoning random people! Let that other dude out and stop! If you don't I'll send you to the anti-magic dungeon!" He turns back to Aventine "Let me know if he causes more trouble, I'll teleport him in an instant. Now I'm going to go take a shower and get all this salt water out of my fur. Bye!"
-
"T-t-thanks, you're r-really nice." Contrary to the suddenness of his normal transformations, this time Almond slowly fades back to normal. He jumps back "Ack! Sorry! Wait, where's the bottle? Why am I soaked? Why are you soaked?"
-
He slithers out almost like a paste. He clings to Aventine's leg immediately soaking one side of her clothing. "W-why did he do that? W-w-what did I do? Am I a b-b-bad p-person?"
-
In the bottle you can see a completely blue Almond, crying uncontrollably to the point where there is an actual pool of tears in the bottom of the bottle "W-w-what did I do? Aventine P-p-please help me!"
-
Almond very much so doesn't like this and begins hyperventilating having a panic attack "SAVE ME AVENTINE! I'M STUCK! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" @Spark of Hope
-
"H-hey! Let me out! I didn't do anything! HEEELP!" He doesn't look angry, just scared out of his mind (he has no scared personality, purple is something else).
-
"Not this again! Lay off already! You're not my mom! You need to stop being so contro-o-o-o-o" Almond (or rather Almond) Glitches out and returns to normal. "Ugh, sorry but I don't feel good." He runs to the toilet and pukes.

Almond looks at the fish "Uuh, tha-a-a-a-a-a" His fur bleeds to a bright red and he suddenly looks very angry "What the *Bleep* is this! Why would you give me something so gross! Rant Rant Rant! (I ran out of ideas)"
-
"Is there any more fish? I really like fish."
-
"Ooh! Fish!" He eats it ravenously. Thank you mister.

So, I've started a ravenloft campaign (which is like a spooky horror setting for dnd with multiple domains each dedicated to torturing 1 really evil person for all eternity, which usually ends with the evil person in charge but emotionally tormented by past mistakes etc.) and I have some ideas of what to do after the premade adventure but would like some more. Feel free to share any interesting ideas, the party's goal is to escape ravenloft btw (mists prevent people from leaving normally and magically)

Oh my gosh I've been waiting to be able to rant about this!
Ok, so ravenloft itself is made up of many small demiplanes called domains of dread(this is all official content btw) The Dark Powers (yes, they're just called "The Dark Powers" never explained) trap people of immense evil (for example murdering a sibling during his wedding with the intent to steal his wife and use his blood to turn into a vampire). I don't know why evil things trap evil people but whatever. These domains are tailor made to torment the "darklord" of the domain (they're not always in charge but usually are.) They can control whether or not other people can leave their domain by opening and closing the mists but they can never leave. Only about 1/100 people born in these domains (which can range from the size of a building to an entire continent) have souls. This is because new souls can't get in and old souls can't leave so they endlessly reincarnate as new people. Sometimes The Dark Powers randomly kidnap capable adventurers and put them in horrifying scenarios for their own mysterious reasons.
My campaign specifically is about a group of adventurers who got kidnapped (except for one who escaped his domain of birth and yes he has a soul) and they are currently trapped in a domain that includes just a house (The House of Lament). After this I'm going to have them go to a haunted orphanage at some point and am definitely going to have the party and the character who was born in one of the domains go back home for trauma at some point (it's A-OK with the player). Other than that I'm going to have to come up with stuff. I'm friends with all these people so I know their basic fears and will use them to the best of my ability to make a spooky atmosphere.
TL;DR: Ok, so I just looked at this and apologize for the hyperfocus rant basically stuck in a horror dimension and trying to escape, looking for ideas for more spooky places.

THATS EPIC I love it so much…
It reminds me a lot of the Magnus archives, if you know what that is. Also um
character trauma!!!
Hmm…more spooky places…
complete and utter darkness
something that messes with their memories (either makes them…like…relive one of their worst moments, or takes away memories and they can’t remember who they are while in it?)
something where they become the monster
puppets
Hmm idk if those will help but that sounds so fun, you guys better have a blast
-
The memory one is actually a canon domain called blutspur, it features mind flayers and incomprehensible alien technology. Fun.
Puppets is something that I didn't even think of even though I love spooky puppets. Will definitely use that one!
Darkness can be hard because so many character races get dark vision but magical darkness can counter that so I could see (or rather not see) some potential there.
becoming the monster is actually something I've been wanting to do forever (ever since I played Fear and Hunger 2).
Really great ideas all around. Will definitely use most if not all of them, Thanks!

Almond is very confused but is also numb to the craziness. "Can I have a 'smallow please?"
-
"Sounds scary." Almond sits there, thinking about stuff (IDK).
-
Almond plops down on the floor and looks over at Roy. "Who's chasing you? Are they too scary?" @RoyalBeeMage
-
"Oh! That's sad. Being chased is no fun."
-
Almond looks at Aventine quizzically.
-
"Why are you worried Ave? Roy seems nice enough."
-
"Cool, sounds fun." he turns to Elan. "Elan! How've you been this past... day... it really feels like it's been 2 1/2 weeks but, it's only been a day. Weird." @Ancient Elantrian
-
"Who's that? They look nice."

I have a great (totally original) idea for a dnd world now too.
So, it's a world where all people live in caves, covered villages (like, completely covered) or underground bunkers. It's set in a 1940s type era. So, people don't go out at night unless absolutely necessary and only for a short time because the light of the Moon God Rhehr (name might change) slowly changes people into terrifying amalgamations of their worst traits and overly-exaggerated physical characteristics.
If you wanna know more about my inspiration look up Fear and Hunger but, be warned it contains some disturbing and adult topics.

Hello all,
I am going to start a new DnD campaign (in real life) and I'm making a Harengon (rabbit-person) who has antlers so he's more like a jackalope. Thing is, I am struggling to come up with a character backstory or class. I could use some pointers on how to do it or suggestions on backstories or classes if you feel like it.
@Spark of Hope I know you're good at character backstories and development.
