Ravenloft Invaders...

[Magus Darkholme]

In my campaigns, all the setting (Grayhawk, Dragonlance, Forgotten Realms, Ravenloft) are connected through the shadow plane and a few rare portal.
Now, these NPCs were originally from the Land of Mists, but have been transported (purposely or accidental) to the Realms. Now they plane on carving out a small domain in different local in Faerun.

The first one was originally from a home made domain near The Amber Wastes. He ruled the domain mercilessly as a Darklord. He was later killed by his ambitious son who wanted the throne as his own. The Dark Powers granted his son the throne and the power he desperately craved by making him the new Darklord.
But, somehow he returned from the grave, and planed to take back his kingdom from his traitorous heir.
During the battle to retake his crown, his son's advisor, a powerful vistani sorceress, released a powerful magic and he was swallowed by the mists.
When the mists cleared, he found himself in the middle of the great desert, Anauroch. He now plans creating his own kingdom in the great desert, which he plans to rule 'till the end of the world.
