Simple question: can you planeshift into Ravenloft?

[Phil Tucker]

I know it's perhaps the worst idea in the world, but if you had the right motivation, do you think the Mists would allow people to purposefully planeshift into Ravenloft? I know you can summon creatures from within the plane, but how about when you're starting from outside?

[kyrt-ryder]

Only if your GM is a Sadist :P

EDIT: I suppose the real question I should be asking is... how are you intentionally attempting to planeshift into Ravenloft? How does your character know about it?

[KenderKin]

I thought the problem was leaving Ravenloft?

I think that is one of those places that you are lucky to get within a thousand miles of whatever landmark you hope to get to,,,,,

[Phil Tucker]

Well, it's actually a Lhaksharut Inevitable that would be using its planeshift ability to do so for plot purposes. I know that I could easily just wave my hand and make it so, but I'm curious if there are any established rules about this in place already.

[Readerbreeder]

I'm not sure about hard and fast rules, but I had always understood it to be:

Getting In = no problem
Getting Out = an entirely different proposition

[Kthulhu]

Shift in = sure, why not.
Shift out = only if the dark powers will it.

And they very rarely will it.

[GreyWolfLord]

Absolutely.

You can planeshift into Ravenloft whenever you want.

On the otherhand, as has already been pointed out...good luck at ever leaving.

You can go in, but you can't get out.
