The fantastic aspects of the Feywild and the gloomy atmosphere of the Shadowfell need something more neutral to contrast with, or else they become less effective as a story device.Going off on a tangent, I just had an interesting idea for a campaign premise: What if one or both of these mirror planes were to begin "absorbing" the material plane? Merged regions would effectively be part of both planes at once, and if you try to leave them, you need to leave them at particular times to reach a particular plane. For example, if you want to leave a merged Shadowfell/Material Plane region, you have to leave it during the day if you want to reach the Material Plane, and during the night if you want to reach the Shadowfell. For the Feywild, the reverse might be true.And the merged regions are being deliberately spread by the inhabitants of the mirror planes - leaving ordinary mortals at their mercy once they become part of the merged zones. The job of the PCs is to find out how these regions are spread, and then put a stop to it so that mortals are safe from them.</blockquote>
