Misty Borders

Misty Borders In a few sentences, describe how the Mists of Ravenloft operate in your domain. This might largely be the same as detailed at the beginning of chapter 3, or they too might reflect the

the Mists? Do they ascribe a personality to them? Where do the Mists appear besides the domain’s borders? How does a Darklord use the Mists to close their domain’s borders (detailed in chapter 3)?

Closing the Borders

Compendium - Sources->Dungeons & Dragons->Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft

Closing the Borders Nepenthe can close the borders of its domain, as detailed in “The Mists” at the start of this chapter. With the sword’s consent, Isolde can do the same. When the Carnival’s

borders close, the Mists are filled with eerie, colorful lights and distant music, echoing memories of past carnivals.
