After years of absence, Jarto makes his triumphant return!

@FZ:
Strahd von Zarovich
First good damn suggestion so far.
Vampires have been done already.

Not on the calibre that Strahd von Zarovich has been done.

Bring in a Sembian with better Adventurer Relations? Some of us goodie-goodies want in on East Way!

Maleen was formerly Cassiel's co-schemer; perhaps the Maleen will inherit the Kingdom (as his former second in command). Maleen being totally in favor of his Magocratic ideals, will attempt to have the East Way governed by a Mage Council, and try forcing the Sheriffs out. The only thing keeping them around however, is the other part of the will, which dictates that Cassiel's considerable wealth is to be left to Jacq for the purpose of running the Sheriffs, who are now lead by Hicks, or some new NPC. It would be a fight to survive for the Sheriffs, or a fight to gain massive new influence for the Mage Guild.
From an IC standpoint, the most obvious answer is to pass the kingdom to either a Sembian relative (perhaps someone at Fivestar, or someone unknown), or off to the Mage's Guild (Maleen), whom there did seem to be some relation towards. Knowing what I know, it's rather doubtful that he'd have a change of heart and pass it into Zhentarim hands, unless there was a grander scheme I never saw.
Other ideas involve:
-
The Kraliiqhs (however it's spelling - the bankers) - Cassiel's many business ventures drew him closer to the banking family than anyone knew. He left the kingdom to a daughter/love interest/partner within the family, who now seek to move their enterprise to East Way, and set up the "New Vegas" of Arabel. A town of questionable morals and sin, but with the outward notion that it's all on the level and merely profit driven.
-
Eclestian Order - A staunch enemy of the Devil Dragon, perhaps a secret arrangement was brokered between an influential, yet unorthodox noble within their ranks, who would wish to utilize East Way in his crusade against the creature, while simultaneously freeing his order from the shadow of Cormyr, expanding it into it's own kingdom, more suitable to the macabre ideals of the Order.
-
Qu'Larq, the founder of Kilgrave, who seemed to have alliances with all sorts of people and creatures, but sadly disappeared due to RL ordeals for the player. Perhaps this is a good place to continue the legacy of a player than did a lot of stuff for the server.
-
Kanthea - was rumored to have a secret love interest, even with her heart of stone.
-
King Bhaliir - That bastard was involved with everything. Why not East Way too?
-
-
Strahd's a good idea, in fact - why not let entire Arabel area be claimed by Ravenloft, then rename the server to something like "Prisoners of the Mist".
Oh wait.
-
Why turn this into D&D: Twilight?

Some sort of Bhaliir related takeover would be awesome. Bhaliir makes an awesome recurring villain for Arabel, would be nice to see him show his face again.
-
Thank god Bhaliir isn't going to take over the East Way. It would make no sense whatsoever, and would kill the mystery and terror surrounding Bhaliir.

He left it to a triumvirate of catholic priests stranded on an island off the Irish Coast, by the name of Craggy.
These priests were named in the will as: Fr. Ted Crilly, Fr. Dougal McGuire and Fr. Jack Hackett.
With their humble tea making assistant as their herald, Mrs. Doyle.

Also. He may still have mystery, but I'm not sure anybody IC alive currently is really worried about him anymore. It'd still kill the mystery though.

I would like to see NO one take over. Casseil never choose anyone! [i[u]]WHAT WILL HAPPEN!?
-
zombie Cassiel! there I said it!
-
Eagleman.
Really. I mean. A kingdom controlled by the power of raw awesome.

Anarchy! Moral disintegration!
In short you have a ghastly mess!
