Ravenloft Reanimated Game of Conquest: Decisions

On the original thread, we were discussing how to include some of the domains which were not included in the RLR domain roster, perhaps as regions or pocket domains, using their elements to enhance other domains, or something else altogether. We came to the following conclusions:
  • In RLR, Keening will become a pocket domain within Darkon.
  • Sebua will become a region within Har'Akir.
  • Avonleigh will become a region within Nidala, with the Shadowborn Manor as a pocket domain within.
  • Vechor will become a region of the Nightmare Lands.
  • Castle Island will remain a pocket domain within Tepest.
Now, there are certain proposals which are problematic enough to be treated in another thread, but the following sum up the proposals which are hanging in the air right now.
  • Fusing Arkandale with Invidia.
  • Fusing Arkandale with Valachan.
  • Keeping Necropolis as a pocket domain within Darkon.
  • Fusing Kartakass with Verbrek.
  • Nidala absorbing Sithicus.
  • Fusing Nidala with Tepest.
  • Fusing Sanguinia and Vorostokov.
What I'd like to hear is what people think about these seven proposals, and how would they implement those they do like. If you think there's something missing in these proposals, don't hesitate to post it, either.

Hokay... let's get this started here...
  • Fusing Arkandale with Invidia: Nay, Invidia is better as part of Barovia or Borca
  • Fusing Arkandale with Valachan: Aye, suggested it in the first place
  • Keeping Necropolis as a pocket domain within Darkon: Nay, I believe that Necropolis should be a 'parallel dimension' domain
  • Fusing Kartakass with Verbrek: Nay, Verbrek has become Arkandale, and Kartakass can remain thusly distinct from Verbrek... get some variation in the Wolfmen
  • Nidala absorbing Sithicus: Aye, or even better, having Sithicus kill Avonleigh and take it's stuff!
  • Fusing Nidala with Tepest: Nay, but they should be neighbored, due to similarities but also thematic differences
  • Fusing Sanguinia and Vorostokov: Aye, combining these two makes a richer united domain with the potential for an even more interesting story
Any other suggestions... hmm... Ghastria and Nosos joining the Zhestrian cluster as an 'England', as well as making Necropolis, Nightmare Lands, and Shadow Rift parallel planes, along with Elemental Dread.

To sum up the proposed changes for necropolis, including mine and a few others ideas:

- City rebuilt and populated once again by the living
- The Morticians Guild holds some political power, and has made the city a first class place for internment of your loved ones in some parts (might be a death cult)
- The Necropolis itself becomes a shadow reflection of the living city on ravenlofts shadowfell.

The shadowrift itself I believe should have an entrence in the proposed fey woods. But the shadowrift itself should be ravenlofts equivalent of the shadowfell (or maybe an underdark type thing).

Elemental dread if it does get included should be a parrel plane same with nightmare lands.
