Donskoy's land or Donskoy's domain is a small domain detailed in only one canon source: the Ravenloft product line novel To Sleep With Evil. (The domain is itself is never given a proper name, hence the name of this article is derived from how it is most referred to in the book's text.) Although it has a wilderness area at least several miles across, the main location of note is Donskoy's keep, a mostly decayed fortress controlled by both the domain's ruler as well as its darklord, Lord Milos Donskoy. The keep reflects a state present in much of the domain: things (or at least, things owned by Donskoy) seem to become afflicted by rotting quickly. This also extends to Donskoy's minions and associates, who seem to experience a gradual degeneration. Even the darklord's own mind seems affected.

At the end of To Sleep With Evil, Donskoy is seemingly killed.[1] Zosia seems to imply that he has either been replaced or reborn. In any case, the island of terror seems to have outlasted its former lord.
