You should know about == General Information ==[[FactionsFile:Ingress_folly.jpg|thumb|left|It is good to be cautious of unknown portals.]]* The current year is 3440. This is not extremely important, but someone asked. Time can be weird on the planes.* Refer to [[User:Sage#House_Rules|Sage's house rules]], especially [[Sage's Hackmaster House Rules]]. Some of the 3.5 rules will also apply under Hackmaster as well (especially the section on The Planes, this is the Planescape setting after all).* I reserve the right to change the rules basically whenever, but I promise it will be for good reasons, and to account properly for any changes this makes to the mechanical operation of anyone's character.

=== Sigil Portals ===As Sigil is Portals are connections between the literal metaphysical center of planes. Portals may be open to anyone passing by, or they may be locked without the planesproper key, which could be almost anything. For example; a physical object, a word or words spoken, a tune whistled or hummed, or a thought or emotion in the mind could all be portal keys. Portals take you from here to there without having to depend on a busy and /or short-tempered wizard with the City rare combination of Doors that theoretically contains portals to every conceivable planeknowledge, power, time, you will find yourself returning and willingness to or travelling through it oftenbe your taxi service.

The everyday operation Portals can be also be transient, moving from place to place or only being active at certain times. They may change in a recognizable pattern or may be completely random. They are like the rest of the city is handled by the Factionsplanes in this way, organizations of people united by a particular belief or philosophyreally.

Ultimately, everything in === Factions ===The [[Factions]] of Sigil run the city exists and comes and goes at the Lady's pleasure . You are free to join factions once you learn about them and find a contact, but be aware the they don't all get along. You probably won't be able to join a faction opposed to a faction that one of the Lady your associates is an active member of Pain., and you can inherit enemies from your faction choices!

Wherever the effortstory or your own hearts' desires take you.

I don't believe in having ''There are a'' prime material plane, so you'll find yourself faced with a multiverse multitude of material planes (earthlike or similar worlds)of various levels of habitability by humanoids. You will most likely be Most humanoids are from one of these worlds, and are referred to as "primes" by people who live on the planes.

=== = Worlds of Note ====* [[Datha]] - Home plane to Jaxson, Grodd, and Marby.* Hombarien - Somewhat less developed than some other worlds. There is known to be a dwarven society which is beset by undead from marshes to the north.* Unknown plane - Sits below the Wandering Temple of Celestian.** The Wandering Temple of Celestian - A temple set on floating islands high above a plane below. The islands float through the sky just fast enough to be in an eternal night. On the island is at least one observatory temple, with a dome of enchanted glass which magnifies the night sky. === Inner Planes ===Additionally there Planes based on the elements and materials of the multiverse. The major ones are : Earth, Fire, Water, Air, Positive, and Negative. === Outer Planes ===[[File:Outlands.jpg|thumb|The Outlands, with Gate-towns and connected planes listed.]]Planes based on the innerideals, philosophies, and gods of the multiverse.  * The Outlands - The neutral plane. [[Sigil]] sits atop the great spire in the center. Arrayed around the spire are the Gate-towns, which tend toward the manner of the outerplane whose permanent gate they surround. * The Beastlands is a plane of nature and animals, elementaland is also known as the Happy Hunting Grounds. Peaceful alpine forests and groves of giant mushrooms can be found here. A varied climate exists across the plane, etcproviding a suitable environment for many species of animals and plants.The number of traditional settlements is very small, with most inhabitants living beneath the trees out in the wilderness. planes The mortal souls that come to this plane after death take on animal traits soon after they arrive, developing pelts of fur and growing horns or pointed ears or other such features. Over the Planescape settingcourse of centuries they continue to slowly change, becoming celestial beasts. * Arborea - The chaotic good plane. Nothing Arborea is a peaceful plane of natural beauty with a multitude of thriving environments. Much of the plane is off limitsdominated by vast tall forests, but also includes glades of wildflowers and fields of grain. As a plane that also embodies chaos, if you it has a wild and often sudden nature. The weather can learn about it change drastically at short notice, changing from warm sunshine to raging winds and back again in just a few minutes. * Limbo - The chaotic neutral plane. Limbo is a place of pure chaos where everything is in game constant motion and change, especially the landscape, which can shift unpredictably and find your way thererandomly rolls over upon itself like liquid. Very few places in Limbo are stable enough for normal travel.

* [[Datha#NPCs|On Datha]]* [[Sigil#NPCs|In Sigil]] === Misc ===* Priestess Nahira - Githzerai priestess and seer met in the Wandering Temple of Celestian.* Norendal - Dwarf/Planetouched Ranger, mentor to Hikari. He is often found wandering the Outlands between Tradegate and Faunel, or making journeys into Bytopia or the Beastlands from these Gate-towns.* Ko'nahn the Barbarian - Barbarian found in the Cobalt Forest on Datha after accidentally falling through a portal. After a friendly fist-fight, Grodd took him to the now stabilized portal, and he returned to The Beastlands. == Special Items ==* The Portal Device - A magical device about a foot long and flanged at either end. It has several small gemstones of various colors that light up. It can be used to study a portal and open some portals without their specific key. It is also being used right now by the party to help triangulate the material plane that Jaxson, Marby, and Grodd are from. * Vaeril's ''Structure of the Planes Vol. I'' - Volume one of a set of books written by a wizard approximately 100 years ago about how the planes work. This volume mostly concerns portals and the connections between planes. The tome is written in Axiomatic, the language of Law.: His unorthodox, and frankly evil, research methods have tainted the work for many. Finding that the books were enchanted against many methods of destruction, some groups have sought to hide the books because they either don't support his research methods, or believe the results to be offensive to the Lady in some way. They may have a point, since Vaeril was ultimately Mazed when he used an artifact to mind control thousands of Hive dwellers and focus their belief on changing Sigil for his experiments.: It is suspected that up to 5 or 6 volumes were produced by Vaeril, but only volumes II and III were copied and distributed until Vol I was located recently by an adventuring party. Other volumes are entirely unknown. * The Stone Egg - This item was dropped in front of the party by a Tiefling who was fleeing the Mercykillers. It did not break when dropped on cobblestone. It has an appearance of joined plates and is about 7 inches long. It is a dark grey color. It is just barely warm to the touch.: Lily, an assistant to Joran, stated to Marby that it may be the egg of Pain some magical creature (not one she recognized) or a nonstandard magical item. She recommended showing it to someone more knowledgeable on those topics. ==Quest Log ==Things your characters said they want to do or were assigned to do by an NPC. The Group: [httpsMain://www* Find and punish the army which marched through Ezethae and Fairmond and attacked their people.youtube** Word is that the horde has marched west of Fairmond, into the Sunburnt Sea.com/watch Side:* What was that shifty group in the Plane Crazy tavern up to?* What is this Stone Egg thing?* Shaamikh, proprietor of an upscale travelling magical item shop, has offered payment in exchange for information.** A solid lead on the (fake?v) hidden riches of Lady Winfrith.** A copy, preferably the original, of Vaeril's ''Structure of Sigil''.* The party located a site of historical, religious, and magical significance on Datha: The Shrine of Saint Dabius.
