An idea for Meredoth
The idea I have is using the fact he is pretty obsessed with magic, even more than usual for a wizard. The Dark Powers let him get a hold of a manuscript describing his curse which it says could be broken if he acquired 500 new spells and the mists were rid of "magic denying" domains. As such he is obsessed with spreading magical research across the domains and destroying domains like Tepast that are against the use of magic. His plans revolve around strengthening wizard guilds, financing magical research and the like and trying to change domains like Tepast. He uses his Lebendtod to achieve his aims. The dread possibility in Nocturnal Sea Gazetteer is true and he is using them more for changing the Mists ideas about magic than killing their masters. He isn't very successful in this as he is going up against ingrained prejudices but he keeps trying.

Re: An idea for Meredoth
Sounds like a good way to put him to use despite his selfish disdain of everybody else. Adventure hooks that put a darklord at cross-purposes with himself are among the best ones. I imagine it could be fun seeing him run a cold war with the Syndicate of Enlightened Citizens.

He might even feel forced to encourage immigration and encourage new births so he has new "raw materials" to create more Lebendtod as he has more control over who is picked and he is a control freak. He would hate it but he needs the numbers.
