The idea of them being basically a super karma of corruption and punishment for evil works really well. And the idea that this spreads beyond just the Lords, well I hadn't really heard that was the case, but I can see it in a way. But here is the problem, I'm just smashing into. You said "Darklord of Dementlieu, Dominic d'Honaire, was born in Mordent." I don't need to know the whole history of this guy, but let me run through the issue. Mordent was created to punish some other darklord. This Dominic guy starts doing evil things, then an entirely new place called Dementlieu springs up around him? It starts to feel like prisons are spinning off prisons. Especially since, the domain's reset. The Jackalwere sees his home destroyed, then it resets and happens all over again. The Egyptian guy sees his home destroyed, then it resets and happens all over again.Strahd tries to get his love, she dies, then it resets all over again. So... why have spin off dark lords? Why didn't this guy reset? Sure, the Dark Powers are mysterious, but that seems odd to pull in people and entire places from across the multiverse, but to also just create new places when people in the places that already exist get too evil.</blockquote>
