For example, his great niece, Lyssa von Zarovich, transformed herself into a vampire to challenge his rule. Throughout his long history as darklord of Barovia, Strahd has come into conflict with many who would challenge his dominance. However, Strahd merely traded one form of damnation for another, as this horrible pact ultimately led to Strahd becoming an all but immortal darklord.
Strahd largely managed to escape the arcanaloth's foul contract with the contract he made with Death that gave him eternal life, or unlife as the case may be. In perhaps the most critical moment in his war against the foreign invaders, Strahd called the fiend Inajira in the hope of securing victory at the cost of his soul. Strahd spent the first few decades of his adult life in his war with the Tergs that had invaded and occupied Barovia. He was the older brother of Sergei and Sturm. Strahd was nobly born to Barov von Zarovich and Ravenia van Roeyen in Prime Material Barovia in 299 BC. Strahd is now cursed to hunt and lose the reincarnations of Tatyana. Tatyana rejected his love and jumped to her death from the walls of Castle Ravenloft. This is the final act that caused him to become the first known darklord. Strahd murdered his younger brother Sergei von Zarovich on his wedding day in an attempt to claim Sergi's bride, Tatyana Federovna. He rules the land publicly from Castle Ravenloft as Strahd XI, supposedly a descendant of Strahd I, but actually the same man.
