For instance, I'm considering doing the following Ravenloft modules:

Night of the Walking Dead - Put this one in the Shadow Marches, and you're pretty well set. The prophecy can be your kickoff for your whole campaign.

Web of Illusion - Jungles. Rakshasa. Sweet. :cool:

Thoughts of Darkness - A planar hop goes wrong, the PCs end up in a demi-plane occupied by illithid, or a corner of Xoriat.

House of Strahd - Perhaps stick it in Kaarnath? Strahd as another victim of Vol or reworked to be the ruler of Kaarnath himself.

Dark of the Moon - Set high on a very cold mountain, or on the southern edge of the arctic continent.
