== General Information ==
[[File: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 [[BenjaminUser:Sage#House_Rules|Sage's D&D 3.5 house rules]], especially [[Sage's Hackmaster House Rules]], a lot . Some of this 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.
=== Portals ===
=== Factions ===
The [[Factions]] of Sigil run the city 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 your associates is an active member of, and you can inherit enemies from your faction choices!
== Locations ==
[[File:Greatwheel.jpg|thumb|upright|The Planes.]][[Sigil ]] and the Planes at large. Wherever the story or your own hearts' desires take you.
==== Locations Inside Sigil =Outer Planes ===[[File:Outlands.jpg|thumb|The Outlands, with Gate-towns and connected planes listed.]]Planes based on the ideals, philosophies, and gods of the multiverse.
* The Outlands - The neutral plane. [[Civic FesthallSigil]]sits atop the great spire in the center. Arrayed around the spire are the Gate-towns, which tend toward the manner of the outer plane whose permanent gate they surround.
== NPCs ==
Friends, foes, and other characters met along the way.
* [[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.
