It seems the Morninglord religion has taken over after Andral and demoted him to a saint. The bones may actually belong to someone else, such as High Priestess Ilona Darovnya, the leader of the church when Strahd was alive.Ultramythhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08570690138788821384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422181426312081107.post-40832770008439420212016-10-07T02:34:44.392-07:002016-10-07T02:34:44.392-07:00It is the same Arabelle.

CoS was written after, so one can assume that Posas was building off of Expedition to Ravenloft, in which the party supposedly cures Doru of his possession... only to have him die of some other cause years later, apparently.<br /><br />A way to better fit this into the future of CoS would be if Doru was cured of his vampiric curse after Strahd was defeated, or the party simply wasn't able to slay him during the adventure. Perhaps in the latter case, Van Ricten (or his successor) slew him years later?<br /><br />Apparently, Leo gets set free (someone cuts themselves on his bony fangs, or bleeds on his bones... perhaps purposefully, perhaps accidentally) and he regrows into a vampire. I can see someone from the Ba'al Versi stealing into the Wacter Haus and doing this. Then, Leo regains his strength as he feeds on the rest of the occupants until he's strong enough to relocate.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14264939677814025577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422181426312081107.post-5265420820264695772016-10-06T18:34:10.202-07:002016-10-06T18:34:10.202-07:00Dennis Archer: After..!

In CoS, they have Leo's bones in a closet.
