Aye!
I'm not into the whole evil wizardry thing though. What if we just pop a character each onto a continent with the express intent to cause mayhem? Each character goes about it in their own way, and the better the job they do the easier it will be to find each other and unite forces.
"Oh, I heard Sir Kepler looted his own capital! Maybe we could be friends?"
A minimum of support from some kind of establishment would be required though, and preferably free lands to colonize (so Dwilight? Or simply a low density realm that can be ... swayed to see the light)
Goal of the realm would be to hold a single region as capital, and raid/plunder for anything it needs. Surely at least one realm would like to ally such a band of misfits
