    If I combine the Dark Sun and Ravenloft settings, I get...

    I second whoever said "go read Zothique". When I read the OP, my first thought was: "Defilers need to suck up more than just 'life'...they need to suck postive emotions from people around them like Dementors in Harry Potter." In general, DS + RL = serious awesome potential. Keep us posted!
