In castle ravenloft, when strahd's sister says "Do your worst" and drops the sunsword, there's a brief moment when a painting of a woman with white hair is shown. does anyone know who that is? is it Skylla?

    Is it this painting?



    She does sort of look like Skylla from the descriptions of her.

    From here, "SKYLLA™ Evil Magic-User has silvery dark hair, stands 5'10", weighs 131 lbs., and has flashing dark eyes. She favors gray clothing, although she always wears her golden demon headress and her golden demon girdle."

    Not exactly though, and she could be a tiefling rather than wearing a demon headress.

    Ahh yes ... it could be her. It looks like she has a golden diadem which could be an understated form of a demonic headress. Although the focus of that diadem looks like the ancient symbol of the Aes Sedai ... err Yin Yang symbol, although it is a little blurry. She has the white locks as well, and the Raven is a popular witch's familiar ...

    Funnily, I saw that picture, and thought he was a man :o otherwise they look pretty androgynous to me.

    Anyone else have any ideas of who this painting represents?

    Maybe Strahd's mother Ravenia Van Roeyen? According to Ravenloft Wiki he named the castle after her.
