The Athar, known to some as the “Defiers,” are a fervent and vocal sect that teaches the rejection of all gods as false, self-proclaimed divinities. They claim that the gods are no more than powerful beings who have cunningly bound mortals to their will through worship and devotion, stealing the very essence of divinity from those who would seek to know the true beyond. Their followers preach a radical doctrine: the gods are not the true masters of the multiverse, and the only path to enlightenment is to unbind the soul from their false dominion.

When Thingol ruled the city, the Castle was home to a sensate speakeasy, a place where the oppressed denizens of Hopeless could indulge in the excesses of life. Once Thingol was deposed, the speakeasy was broken down and brought to the surface; its contents to be used in careful indulgence, lest they tip the city too far away from the Grey Wastes.

This trauma led Checker to abandon its programming, seeking to understand the multiverse through the perceptions of others. Joining the Sensates, Checker, now known by its artistic pseudonym “Modrian,” uses art as a tool to study how various beings experience reality. It creates controlled stimuli—visual and auditory—to observe and record the reactions of different creatures, aiming to build a universal understanding of sensation and, eventually, construct a perfect sensory device. Despite its chaotic artistic side, Checker remains obsessed with the logic of its quest to understand the true nature of the multiverse.

{ width=“500” }

Doomguard

The Doomguard believe that everything—worlds, planes, even the multiverse itself—is slowly falling apart, and that’s the way it should be. To them, decay, entropy, and destruction aren’t evils to fight but truths to embrace. Some Sinkers actively push things toward ruin, tearing down order and stability wherever they can. Others simply wait and watch, convinced that all things eventually crumble. Though often mistaken for nihilists, the Doomguard see themselves as realists: guardians not of life, but of its inevitable end.

Drinks of the Planes

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Drinks of the Planes

If there is one constant in the multiverse and the myriad planes, it is that all creatures like to sate their thirst. Most primes, having never encountered creatures of another plane, find it difficult to understand that a “drink” to a magma mephit is diametrically opposed to what they would find at their corner tavern.

Sit across from a Fire Giant at one of the outdoor tables in the Market Ward, and you’ll be amazed to see him suck down a flagon of molten iron as casually as you’d sip a mug of ale. Needless to say, if you’re out drinking with an interplanar crew, it’s best not to say “I’ll have what it’s having.” - Sionia Uralendan, Witches’ Brew: Elixirs, Brews, and Brews with Bite

Description

Cranky residents of the Gatemouth district can take a much-needed rest at the Eye and Dagger, Bedlam’s most popular hotel. Sheets of worn nickel coat the exterior of the narrow, triangular building, which cuts through Bedlam’s winds with its knifelike edge. The Eye and Dagger is mostly windowless—many establishments in Bedlam’s lower districts forgo windows altogether, lest they be shattered by hazardous debris hurled by the winds—and the hotel’s roof comes to a sharp point. From outside, the joint looks like a giant, upturned blade.

The Faction War was a brief but tumultuous time in Sigil history where a faction (of which we will not speak) tried to rise up and oust the Lady of Pain. The Lady seemed to decide the problem was the number of factions (there were, at that time, fifteen) and enacted a new rule that only twelve factions were allowed henceforth.

Grey Wastes

Where: One of the Outer Planes
Type: Plane of Existence

Description

The Grey Wastes, also known as the Gray Waste of Hades, is a plane of desolation and despair, where the very essence of hope and joy is drained from those who enter. This bleak, colorless realm is an expanse of lifeless plains, empty ruins, and endless fog, casting everything in dull shades of gray. The air is thick with a pervasive sense of apathy, and the land itself seems to sap the will to live from all who traverse it. The Grey Wastes embodies the concept of entropy and stagnation, where everything eventually withers away. Souls that are cast here are slowly eroded by hopelessness, their desires and ambitions withering as they become mere shadows of their former selves. It is a place where the dead and dying find their final resting place, forever lost in the empty quiet of an existence devoid of meaning.

Transition from SMD to Sigil

The Giff, these enormous hippo-headed creatures wearing plate mail with a symbol of a sword within a shield emblazoned on it, shepherded you from the alleyway you appeared in to an enormous compound of cold granite. As you walked through the city, you were astonished by what you saw: Angelic figures playing dragonchess with mephits. A mind flayer serving up some sort of creature leg on a spit. Two trolls carrying an enormous sedan chair with several high-dressed humanoids reclining inside. Your mind reeled as you tried to take it all in.

Obsidian Serpent Staff

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Obsidian Serpent Staff

This staff is broken into five pieces, each worth 25 GP for the obsidian alone. The entire staff can be restored with mending cantrips; each casting of the spell repairs one break in the staff. If the staff is made whole, it transforms from an object into an animated jade serpent that has the statistics of a giant poisonous snake, with these changes:

The serpent is a construct that understands and obeys whoever was holding the staff when it transformed.
It has immunity to poison damage and the poisoned condition. It doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.
When it drops to 0 hit points, roll a d6. On a roll of 1, the snake turns to dust and is destroyed. On any other roll, it changes back into a staff and breaks into 1d4 + 1 pieces that must be magically mended before the staff can be used again.

On the Languages of the Planes

On the Languages of the Planes

Excerpt from “On the Language of the Planes” by Claudious Winklesteinmiester, tiefling historian, third class, of the Fraternity of Order - Found in the Fraternity’s library in Sigil, misfiled between two larger tomes about languages of the Material Plane

It is no question that every species on every plane has its own sets of expletives. Mayhaps the common trait shared amongst all living (and even undead) creatures is their ability in times of great frustration to summon some means to express their displeasure verbally.

Characters:

Recap

The adventurers start their adventure meeting up at Small and Coats Industries to get their first job from their new sometimes employers. Each of these adventurers has been put on retainer by the pair, in the form of room and board (within reason) at the Chirper’s Inn. The adventurers had a fun little icebreaker session with Coats, who instructed them to return the next day for their first retrieval mission.

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Recap - 2025-06-13

After a harrowing adventure in Undersigil with the gang, they were given a couple of days off to recuperate. They each spent it as befits their personality:

Josiah spent his time exploring the ability to actually drink liquids and eat foods, and while exploring these experiences, kept an eye on the patrons in Chirper’s Inn to see if any stood out as the underhanded sort. Nothing panned out, but it was a pleasant way to spend some downtime.
Hankin Hummock spent his time working with the Bleak Cabal faction at their headquarters, lending his cleric skills to the underserved and helpless of Sigil. He earned some goodwill the Bleak Cabal, and made a couple of friends.
Angelus B Damned split his time between drinking in Chirper’s Inn and gambling at Fortune’s Wheel. He earned a little jink, but the carousing netted him a more interesting prize: He befriended a couple of Harmonium members by joining them in booing one of the acts onstage.
Chibro Roz spent his time hunting cranium rats, and thanks to his talents as a scout and a particularly high demand for the deaths of the sodding things, made good coin doing it.
Tagleri Sunrunner spent his time working in a borrowed stall in the Great Bazaar, offering up his services as a jewelry repairman. He earned a bit of money, but also spent time observing the jewels of the more well-to-do creatures in Sigil.

After their downtime was complete, Coats called them back in for their next job. They arrived, and he first insisted that the group do a little icebreaker by each sharing a joke. Most of the group refused to participate, but Josiah attempted a brief joke, and Chibro stepped briefly out of his normal taciturn attitude to share one as well. Angelus tried to get a chuckle from a pickup line, but Coats was either being intentionally obtuse to play for laughs, or genuinely didn’t understand the premise, to Angelus’ chagrin.

Recap - 2025-06-26

The group stood on the deck of the very damaged airship, taking a moment’s pause after the controlled crash. The huts and shantys they had crashed into were knocked to pieces, but their occupants merely gave the group strong glares as they tumbled out and picked up the pieces. It was clearly apparent that their houses being knocked over was not unusual for these wind-addled denizens of Bedlam.

Sigil - 2025-07-10

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Recap - 2025-07-10

Chibro worked at the Armory during his downtime, working with the Doomguard. He was introduced by Factotum Saren Grav to a grung named G’lep, who is their ranged weapons expert. He has a five-shot rifle, which peaks Chibro’s interest, and Saren tells Chibro that G’lep is associated with Small in some way, and if Chibro sees G’lep around the area, for him to assist him in whatever he is doing.
Tag works in the market, repairing jewelry and waiting for the target of his counterfeiting to come by. When she does, he calls her over for a quick repair and manages to swap his counterfeit broach for her real broach, which he then hides away until later. The woman he stole the broach from is a Githzerai.
Tag and Chibro also spent time together at meals chatting about their plans and learning about where the other came from.
Josiah spends his time performing acrobatic feats for Checker at the Society of Sensation and earns some cash.
Angelus spends his week gambling at Fortune’s Wheel, and loses it all. He then borrows 50 GP as an advance from Small and goes gambling with it as well. He is coerced by Shemeshka, an Arcanoloth that later admits to owning the casino. She sees him as a potential high-roller, and asks him back into the back room to roll the eponymous Fortune’s Wheel, and he manages to earn back some cash. Shemeshka offers him another spin, saying it’s again normal protocol, but he seems eager. He manages to earn a low-level prize, but then convinces her to step away for a moment and steals some tokens from the dispenser and runs through another few attempts. His first pull nets him a property in the gate-town of Rigus, and his second pull nets him a minor pseudo-divinity, making him essentially the patron saint of street performers and gamblers. On his way back, he gets a reaction from many celestials and fiends he walks past, and discovers he is able to influence the outcome of a three card monte game. He is able to influence a street performer or street gambler’s act once a day, in some way he sees fit.
The gang gathers back at Small and Coats Industries, where Coats introduces them to Tabithgor, a plasmoid interplanar guide. Coats explains that the group is going to participate in a delivery this time, not a retrieval. The destination is the Crawling City in Gehenna. But the issue is, they can’t just go straight through a portal to Gehenna. All the portal empty out on the bottom layer in the caves, and the earth elemental myrmidons won’t be able to navigate through it. So instead, they are going to have to go to Gehenna by way of Hades. The full path is:
- Sigil -> The Outlands by way of Semuanya’s Bog, -> Hopeless -> Hades -> River Styx -> Gehenna -> Crawling City -> Nimicry (where a portal back to Sigil can be found) -> Sigil.
Tabi, as he prefers to be called, tells you he has a Sphere of Fire Immunity in his head that will make anyone within 30 feet immune to fire damage, and anyone within 30-120 feet resistant. This is necessary because Gehenna is covered in volcanoes and he doesn’t want to bubble away from the heat.
The group does some quick shopping, and Tag buys a Nightmare for a decent price, getting it so cheap due to it missing its flight and phasing abilities.
The group heads out and discovers the portal to Semuanya’s Bog is in a giant overflow drain in the middle of Sigil’s only river, The Ditch. Tabi has Chibro throw the key through (a bag of mud with a catskill branch in it), then the group quickly makes their way through.
Upon arrival in the bog, they make their way along the wooden platforms, then accidentally stumble upon a family of T-rexes enjoying a dinner of the last group to cross though the bog. They manage to kill them after a pitched battle, where at one point three separate characters were in the mouths of the t-rexes. Highlights include:
- Chibro immediately rune-zapping the mother T-rex, freezing her out of any action for several rounds, likely saving the party.
- Tabi getting stuck on one of the teenage t-rex’s heads, and the group quickly discovered why he is a guide that needs hired muscle, as he was ineffective at fighting the t-rexes.
- Josiah calling down a massive storm over the t-rexes, robbing them of their first action, also likely saving the party.
- Tag bringing down the mother t-rex using a well-placed arrow to the brain.
- Angelus rooting the t-rex in place by making it fearful of him, preventing it from killing Chibro outright as he lay unconscious.
- Gobbie bringing the heals as he kept his distance from the dinosaurs.
After defeating the dinosaurs, Chibro and Tag stripped them of their teeth, and Tabi cut away a number of steaks to prepare later.
The group waded into the water at the edge of the bog and made their way to firmer land, where they set up camp and roasted the t-rex steaks for dinner. Tabi asked the group about their scars, as Plasmoids can’t scar and he is fascinated by them, and the group shared their various scars.
- Josiah shared about the scar where his mechanical docent implant used to be.
- Chibro shared about his scar he received fighting a hellhound as they overwhelmed his village and killed his brother.
- Tag shared a scar privately with Tabi, who seemed impressed by it but lied to the rest of the group that it was a large scar on Tag’s rear.
- Angelus showed his relatively new facial scars from the razorvine blight fight in the alley last week.
- Gobbie didn’t share a scar.
The group set in for a long rest, preparing for the two day hike across the Outlands to the gate-town of Hopeless.

Recap - 2025-07-17

The group set up camp on the outskirts of Semuanya’s Bog, weary and battered from their battle with the Tyrannosaurs. After a meal and some conversation, they all head to bed. The Outlands are strange at night, with the light clicking off as the meridian crosses through their camp, instead of gently fading. There is also an odd droning aspect to the insects, never fading in and out, but constant. Underneath this buzzing is dozens of voices whispering, babbling, prayers or thoughts in dozens of languages.

Recap - 2025-07-31

The party (Chibro, Josiah, Angelus, Gobbie, Tag) walks through a barren desert toward Hopeless.
They notice there’s no sun, moon, or stars — only ambient light and a dark horizon line.
They realize there’s no twilight — it instantly shifts from day to night.
Chibro uses his sense of smell and survival to confirm they are moving forward, not trapped in place.
Gobbie reaches out to their deity and feels a wave of despair and hopelessness, but resists it.
Time passes strangely — they’ve walked for hours but seem no closer to Hopeless.
The meridian line (separating light from dark) crosses them again; night falls instantly.
A ruined serpent temple suddenly appears in the desert, where previously there was only silt.
Two sweet-smelling pools appear: “Suffering” and “Rebirth.”
Two bronze snake statues are labeled “Surrender of the Mind” and “Surrender of the Body.”
Chibro spots a partially collapsed pit that leads underneath the temple structure.
Inside, the party sees three humanoids — Pasinia (halfling), Caloles (firbolg), and Delobel (human).
Voices from within argue in Draconic — Pasinia says the temple must be destroyed.
Caloles tells the party this temple traps petitioners on their way to Hopeless.
He warns that the temple is dedicated to Ssharaz, a serpent goddess of surrender and oblivion.
Josiah identifies the three as Sensates from the Society of Sensation.
Tag vaguely recalls Ssharaz as a minor Yuan-Ti goddess of dreams and rebirth.
The temple interior is overgrown with vines and flowers, full of incense and cots.
Thre Yuan-Ti (Atzas, Szeltsi, and Nehshi) are present near an altar, performing ritual acts.
The Sensates and Yuan-Ti argue:
Sensates see the temple as a threat to authentic experience.
Yuan-Ti offer release from pain and suffering through surrender.
Pasinia realizes they may have been there for days and have lost track of time.
One of the Yuan-Ti smirks knowingly when she says this.
The party is tempted by the fragrant pools; Gobbie and Angelus resist magical allure.
Gobbie stops Pasinia from walking to a cot with a Command spell.
Nehshi accuses the party of controlling her mind.
Tag’s panther Cath tries to attack Nehshi but misses.
Nehshi throws Pasinia onto a cot and begins wrapping her in vines.
Combat begins.
Tag strikes one of the Yuan-Ti; a massive serpent statue animates in response.
The statue glows green and becomes hostile — an eidolon possesses it.
The statue hurls the stone head of a Yuan-ti statue at Tag, dealing massive damage.
Hypnotic Pattern is cast by Delobel; Angelus and Chibro are incapacitated.
Gobbie uses Spiritual Weapon and an axe to cut Pasinia free.
Szeltsi tries to rewrap and choke Pasinia with vines.
A mass Suggestion spell is cast by Pasinia — a couple of party members feel compelled to destroy the snake.
The eidolon snake is heavily damaged by Angelus, Josiah, and Tag.
The statue is destroyed; the eidolon emerges as a ghostly spectral serpent.
The eidolon frightens everyone who sees it (except Josiah and Gobbie).
The eidolon disappears into the floor.
Delobel, no longer magically charmed, shouts dramatically at everyone.
One Yuan-Ti (Szeltsi) is polymorphed into a bunny by Caloles.
Nehshi casts Sleep — Chibro succumbs and falls unconscious.
Gobbie and Delobel flight over Pasinia’s hand as she tries to regain awareness.
The group splits attention between protecting Pasinia and chasing the eidolon.
The eidolon reappears as a ghostly presence, causing another fear wave.
Delobel, still performing theatrically, becomes more erratic.
Josiah blasts Nehshi with a spell, knocking him out.
Caloles rescues Pasinia and hands the bunny-Szeltsi to Gobbie.
The eidolon inhabits another statue and attacks the group, but they dispatch it easily.
The temple collapses, and the group digs themselves out, ready to head to Hopeless.

Recap - 2025-08-14

Party traveled from the serpent goddess’s temple toward Hopeless.
On the way, Angelus found a trapped serpent chest, failed to open it, tried to trick Tag into triggering it, but accidentally told him the right command. Tag claimed the Obsidian Serpent Staff.
At Hopeless’s gates, Beholder guard Fizz warned them to keep colors, emotions, and magic suppressed. Josiah’s duster hid Angelus’s bright clothes; Tabby disguised himself as rags on the crates.
On the descent into the city, the party passed a porch with looping ghostly illusions. Seamus (the chained mage) revealed he’s a prisoner of Thingol and urged them to find Roric at the Castle of Bones.
Thingol publicly executed a dragonborn whose song failed to impress her. She invited the group to lunch later to discuss “an opportunity.”
At the Castle of Bones tavern, skeletal waiters served gray bread and bland gruel.
Angelus spotted Derrick, a man with rare color in his cheeks, and used Hold Person.
Derrick disclosed an underground Sensate speakeasy run by Roric (a former Sensate leader executed by Thingol and raised as a wight).
Angelus found the secret button and let the party in via a hidden button.
In the speakeasy: better food, muted celebration, and gambling. Angelus won at cards but play was cut short to avoid drawing Beholder attention.
Roric explained Hopeless’s nature as a gate town to the Gray Waste: the plane’s hopelessness seeps in. Thingol enforces despair; Roric and the Sensates quietly nurture hope. He suggested helping free Seamus, who’s bound by a dangerous necrotic trap.
Outside, ashes from the executed dragonborn blew into the portal, spawning a tar-black fiend that instantly killed a passerby.
Battle highlights:
- Tag went down multiple times but was revived by Josiah’s Hankin Word and Angelus.
- Cath knocked the fiend prone; Gobbie, Angelus, and Josiah’s construct dealt heavy hits.
- Chibro landed the killing blow from hiding with a sneak attack.
Locals barely reacted, shuffling away.
Thingol thanked them for “cleaning up” and reiterated her goal: maintaining the precise balance of hopelessness so Hopeless doesn’t slide fully into Hades or another plane.
Invited them to lunch to discuss further “help.”
Party accepted, planning to visit an outfitter before meeting her.

As the group set off for the Outfitter for the Grey Wastes they had heard about from Roric, a goliath tripped over Gobbie, sending both of them sprawling in the street. Gobbie immediately recognized his cousin, Kor. After a brief moment of catching up, with Kor explaining he had been thrown here through a portal into Sigil and had quite the time of trying to catch up to Gobbie, the group again set off for the outfitter.

The party, having awoken from their rest feeling more powerful than before, went downstairs for breakfast before heading out into the Grey Wastes. They were served by the literal skeleton staff a breakfast that was more palatable than yesterday’s (though not by much).

While they were eating, they watched the staff of the Castle of Bones haul the furniture and entertainments from the speakeasy below, arranging some of it on the ground floor. As two skeletons carried a large armchair past the table, a foot jutted out and tripped them, forcing the chair to skitter to a stop on the floor. It slid to a stop next to Josiah, and Orphelia, the Jackalwere vendor the group met the day before reclined on it. She purred to Josiah, “I hear I have you to thank for ridding us of that terrible Thingol.” Josiah acknowledged the praise, and she pulled out a map case, showing the cracked parchment inside. “Well, I just finished talking to Roric, and he says he’s changing the rules around the portal a bit, now that he’s in charge. He wanted to block it off entirely, but I convinced the poor dear that would be in poor taste. So for now, I’m free to come and go as I please, scavenging my little way across the plane. Consider this my thank you present: A map of the Grey Wastes, in all its glory. Only one gold piece.”

As Josiah lay on the ground, consciousness returning to his once-dead form, staring up at the turtleneck-beclad yuangoloth looming over him, Tag flashed back to the last time he was loomed over by an enormous figure - when a statue crashed down onto him and nearly drowned him.

Flashback Episode!

Tag sat behind his stall, foot tapping as he surveyed the passing figures in the streets of Sigil. Angelus sat on an overturned crate nearby, using his new-found control of street magicks to mess with a poor street performer who kept trying (and failing) to pull a rabbit out of his hat. Chibro and Josiah had both walked him to the stand, and then set off for their jobs: Chibro to the Great Foundry, and Josiah to the Society of Sensation to perform as part of Checker’s research. Gobbie had left earlier in the morning to go volunteer with the Bleak Cabal, ministering to those who needed his help.

The Fiend’s Offer

The Wasting Plains stretched out under a colorless sky when the adventurers found themselves face-to-face with a towering Yagnoloth known as Scribbler.

Without ceremony, Scribbler restored Josiah to life, the act performed as casually as stamping a form.

“One resurrection prepaid,” he rumbled, “by your employers. The gnome, and the elf.”

He offered them each a deal in turn. Chibro listened but the rest mostly resisted. Angelus was briefly lured in by the idea of some fun times, but decided the cost (“your bravery or your charm) too steep and turned away.

Angelus continued to try to woo Dreri, the fallen aaismar, but while she admitted she found him charming, didn’t seem to notice anything beyond that.
She insisted that in order for them to get on her boat, they had to prove their strength.
Chibro questioned her motives, asking why she was willing to take them, and whether she would be willing to throw them overboard at first sign of danger to herself or her boat.
She told him that she refused to sign a contract, as “that is what the fiends do”, but told him she wanted nothing more from them than to help keep her boat safe as she travelled. If she remained in one place for too long, she would find herself a petitioner, and would eventually become someone bound to fight in the Blood War. In addition, she tried to sail on her own through the Sea of Lamentations recently, and only managed to escape the mental grasp of some hellbeast deep within its’ waters by happenstance of another ferry coming by.
Chibro accepted her response, and she insisted they all show their mettle:

“Ever played that old kids’ game where you put your hands out, and the other person slaps your hands as hard as they can, then you do the same to them, and back and forth until one of you gives in? I want that, but from each of you. You give me your best shot, straight up, mano a mano - then I give you one back. Shoot me, stab me, hit me, whatever. You each get one chance. If I can take everything you all throw at me, or I knock one of you out, then no ride. If you can stagger me, then I’ll take you. Deal? And don’t look at these idiots. They won’t cross me and take you. I want you to prove you’re tough enough to travel the Styx. I won’t risk my hide for a bunch of dumb little tourists.”

Recap 2025-11-06

Dreri calls out, “All right, everyone - hold onto something and say a prayer. We’re crossing the threshold!”
You don’t see the edge of the plane. There is no waterfall, no rapids. The river seems to stretch on ahead of you into the distance, into the darkness. The whole of the river is an ashen red, and the dim light that has surrounded you the whole time you have been on this godsforsaken plane gives the river an eerie pall, reflected up onto the sides of your boat.
You glance back at Dreri, and see her clutching the steering oar with both hands and keeping it tucked under her arm, held as tightly as a woman drowning. Her intensity seems at stark odds to the calm, almost apathetic surroundings around you.
Then the boat leaps into the sky, following the river that bubbles and boils beneath you. The river, now, suddenly, is shooting into the sky - not a geyser, but a reverse waterfall, the pouring water an elevator, dragging your boat with it. And as it rises, it shifts in hue from the dull tones to a bright, almost lava red, its temperature shifting from lukewarm to burbling hot, steam hovering over its surface.
Dreri lets out a bellow, half rage, half excitement, and drags hard on the oar as a cliffside looms above you. You shoot past it, skittering against smaller rocks, the impact rattling your teeth. Then, suddenly, the boat inverts - you feel the shift in your stomach, it drops up and away as if you had gone over a loop in a rollercoaster, and you realize you’re now facing out into the dark expanse between the planes. There are no stars, no lights, nothing but a swirling vast emptiness. The ride smooths, and then – you’re back upright. The ride is calm.
But your surroundings have changed. No longer are you surrounded by the flat and colorless expanse of the Grey Wastes. Instead, you see a landscape pockmarked by volcanoes of immense size. Everything is steep angles and burning rock. Even the Styx itself is still at an incline, though Dreri seems to be moving the boat upstream through some magics you don’t fully understand.
She grins and wipes sweat from her forehead. “And THAT is why you need me.”
The wind carries on it a heavy note of sulfur, and you can see winged fiends circling in the sky in the distance. The riverbanks are sharp obsidian, and as you watch, a large section of a distance volcanic mountain collapses, causing molten and igneous rock to tumble thousands of feet to the ground below.
You realize, as you look around, there isn’t a single fully level surface in view. You hear the quiet voice of Tabi behind you, back in his humanoid form, bluish blobby feet dangling over the edge of the boat, the sphere of fire resistance bobbing in his head, and it bounces slightly with each word. “Gehenna. What a place. They say if you trip and fall here, you keep falling until you fall out of the plane itself.” He points off into the distance, at the peak of one of the volcanic mountains, and says, “That’s our destination. The Crawling City.” He pulls a spyglass out of his bag and puts it to his head. “Good news is, looks like they plan to meet us halfway.” He hands Angelus the spyglass he was looking through, and Angelus looks through it inverted, dismayed at how far away the city is. Tabi then hands it to Gobbie, who sights the city.
As you watch, what you thought was an enormous boulder stuck to the side of a steep slope resolves into a gigantic slab of rock with hundreds of enormous, clawed legs jutting from the bottom. The legs begin to twist and move, and the rock, covered in tall buildings, begins making its way down the mountain, coming your way. “Probably take a few days for them to reach us,” Tabi says, “But that’s our destination, boyos.”
“Maybe this leg of the journey won’t be as bad as the first?” Tabi offers up, crossing his little blobby hands. “I say we get off here.”
Dreri shrugs, and says, “So is this where I drop you off?”

Gobbie, you sit within the magical dome that Chibro creates for you all every long rest, and stare through the vague haze out at a figure you know must be from your imagination. Greebo, the kobold who taunted you and your friends into trap after trap, who led you on a not-so-merry chase through the halls of Gauntlgrym, who nearly killed all of you before you tracked him down and Bones slew him, is sitting on a boulder a little over sixty feet away.
He gives you a sardonic grin and a slow wave, but doesn’t say anything. You notice that his scales glitter with a golden radiance, and he seems a bit taller than you remember, but it’s definitely him.
You realize there are likely mere seconds left in the protective spell, and that once it falls, you’ll be wide open.

Leaving the Bridge of Khalas behind you, you can see Dreri relax slightly, as she drives the boat forward. The river ahead of you winds around the massive volcano at the center of Khalas, and its climb is growing steeper and steeper.
To your left, around a small pile of obsidian rocks, a group of humanoid figures fight with literal tooth and claw to be on top, even as the rocks cut into their bodies. As soon as one makes it up, the others grab them and drag them down, starting the cycle anew.
A few hundred feet upriver, to your right, an enormous creature with two massive horns jutting out of its skeletal face carries a limp figure by its head, the dirty fingers of the fiend digging into its scalp. It smirks at you as you pass, shaking the limp creature like a puppet.
Tabi keeps checking his spyglass for the Crawling City, but has lost sight of it as you’ve transited to the other site of the volcano. “Hopefully they’re smart enough to know where we’ll be coming round,” he says.
As you continue up and around, the air thickens further. The smell of sulfur becomes almost an afterthought as the smoke itself clogs your nose and coats your tongue with its thick, acrid taste. Your visibility has dropped as well, the smoke making everything over a few hundred feet away hazy and indistinct. The smoke has an eerie underglow from the constant lava pools, leading to a eerily well-lit yet dim atmosphere. With this, it’s a surprise when, looming out of the smoke, are the first actual structures you have seen since coming to this plane. You see two large totems, one on each side, and a wrought-iron fence encircles the ledge between them. The ledge seems bizarrely flat and stable compared to the rest of the plane, and the smoke even seems thinner, more breathable.
At the center of the outcropping is a crowded bazaar, filled with milling yugoloths, petitioners, devils, fiends, other outsiders, and the occasional mortal visitor. Standing at the edge of the market, closest to the river, is a massive Maelephant.
A hulking ten feet tall, this creature looks like a horrifically mutated loxodon, with horn-like protrusions coming out of its head and shoulders, giving the body an impression of armor melted into its skin. It sits on a large chest, and gestures for you to pull the boat over.
“I AM BROOZE,” it bellows, “I STAND GUARDIAN OF THESE SHRINES. TOUCH NOT THE SHRINES, BUT APPROACH THE BAZAAR, FOR WE HAVE THAT WHICH YOU SEEK.”
Tabi and Dreri both voice a desire to pull over, but for different reasons. Tabi wants to peruse the wares, and Dreri wants to check the boat.

You see a blighted goat man, with sores and spores all over his body, marching behind.
You see Dreri desperately trying to scrape the mold out of her boat, distracted by the horror of it.
You see Brooze, the enormous Maelephant, watching with mild bemusement.
You see Tag, his eyes still bright even as his mind is temporarily addled.
Angelus, you are grappled by both Slaads. You put up a good fight, but they grabbed you with their immensely strong grip. You can attempt to free yourself again on your turn.

In the aftermath of the battle to rescue Angelus, most of the party regrouped in the hallowed circle around Chamenal, the deva. Chibro and Josiah, having determined the immediate threat to be over, decided to instead return to the boat with the chest containing the Chaos Matter scavenged from Pythagius.

Josiah and Chibro both separately inspected the crates, and despite the odd masked men having pulled the tops off, there did not seem to be anything misplaced. They both saw the contents: Two halves of a massive crossbow, with a bolt the size of Chibro’s forearm, and a thin filament attached to the bolt.

There were a few creatures still loitering around, and the bartender stayed, but the rest of the fiends cleared out. Josiah gave Angelus the cup of Nectar that Kor did not take, allowing him to regain his full vitality.

The group discussed how to do what Naghig had asked, as it seemed to involve no little amount of peril. They finally decided that Angelus would talk to the Ultraloth and see if he would offer them payment for killing Naghig.

After waiting for Angelus and Chibro to finish the many and myriad verses of the songs of their people, the group split, with Tag and Gobbie going back to the boat, and the rest of the group going to visit Togek for one last supply stock.

Angelus tried to wheedle and deal and managed to get a Staff of Charming for a decent deal. Chibro, Kor, and Josiah also all restocked. Josiah asked for a high quantity of bullets, and Togek managed to pull all of them from under his magical table, but with some difficulty. As he handed them over, it was in sacks of 10-20, and each bag looked different. Josiah took cursory glances at them, but didn’t inspect further, merely choosing to reload his gun and pack the rest away.

Their job now effectively complete, and only the journey home awaiting them, they slowly began walking in the direction of the “creature-appropriate” lodging one of the leaders of the city had pointed them to before Angelus had driven them off with his charming wit.

When we last left our intrepid heroes, they had agreed to kill off a large worm in the city’s bowels, in exchange for their own plane. Specifically, Josiah, Chibro, and Tag had agreed. Gobbie and Kor had abstained, Angelus signed with a fake name, making his signature null and void, and Grebo was forbidden to sign by Chibro.

Once the agreement was underway, Quintus took the group to a large sphincter, opening it and allowing them in. He closed it behind them and wished them luck. The imp, still determined to document, followed, turning invisible as he did.

Group moved on from the Misery room to the next room, which referenced “humanity’s despair”.

This room looks like a collapsed cathedral. There are crumbling stone arches along the walls, half-standing. The stonework is stained with water damage, and age. The ceiling above you is partially collapsed, and oddly, you can see stars through the holes in it. However, these stars don’t offer the same comforting twinkling light of the stars back on the Material Plane. Instead, they seem to shine harshly down on you, causing your shadows to stand out in stark relief against the floor. The floor itself is made of uneven flagstones with deep cracks, and the pews that sit on them are broken, not through violence, but as though they couldn’t bear to hold themselves together any longer.
At the far end of the room is a small altar, with a single unlit candle sitting on it. next to the candle is a single aged flint and steel. Shadows flit across the walls, and as you all file in, you feel your own shadows begin to drag behind you, turning into chains that weigh you down.
The shadows shift on the walls, and dive at you.

After gathering up all the treasures from the Pyxis crypt’s Hope room, the group retraced their steps back to the entrance, where Grebo warned them of someone waiting outside.

Kor, expecting a fight, ran outside, only to be confronted by:

A yugoloth stands in the courtyard outside the entrance to the crypt. A thin black beak pokes out of a dark green hood, with eyes a mix of fiend and avian twinkling from inside. She stands roughly four feet tall, and her cloak is sleeveless, allowing her arms to be fully exposed. Her arms are long and slender, with greyish skin, and feathers extending along the backside from the wrist of her three-fingered hand to her shoulder. Lighter downy feathers cover the rest of her visible body, and the three large claws of her feet extend out from under the robe. She holds a large staff, almost twice her size, with a single large carved eye at the top.
As you exit, she turns her head back and forth, eyeing you all up and down.
Sitting on her shoulder is the imp that you so impressively lost on your way here.
She lets out a barking laugh, and says, “Well? What did you find down there?”

The pit Josiah found himself in was slowly filling with acid, and he was restrained with a number of psuedopods that were wrapped around his arms and legs, holding him down onto the ground.

Dreri and Grebo followed, less following Angelus specifically and more just that they weren’t sure where to go in this tangled mass of creatures. At the door, Dreri paused. Looking around, she smiled, “Well, you brought me here, just as you promised.” Angelus grinned, and then turned red as Dreri bent down and gave him a brief kiss on the cheek.

More Downtime

This session was spent at least partially finishing out the downtime for the rest of the players.

Josiah was still absent, so we will figure his out next session.

Kor’s Downtime

You spend the first week back in Sigil familiarizing yourself with the place. It’s overwhelming, at best, and some days you find yourself just sitting on the front stoop of Chirper’s Inn watching the swirling mass of planar creatures in a full rainbow of colors move by.
You hear Angelus inside, most evenings, telling the stories of the groups’ adventures to whoever will buy him a round. Gobbie stops by to check in with you a couple of times, but seems content to let you sit and process what’s happened.
One such day, in the middle of the morning, a very muscled and fit hobgoblin, biceps as big around as yours despite a shorter frame, approaches you. He steps onto the first step, almost timidly, then says, “Are you Kor?”
He introduces himself as Forza Tesch, and says he is a member of the Transcendent Order, a faction in Sigil dedicated to the development of mind and body.
He pauses, then says, “Is it true you outlasted a group of ACHERON Notes-bound hobgoblins?”

He didn’t get much from them beyond that they were bound to the service of the priest as part of a summons, and that he hexed their minds to follow his ways even outside their holy purpose. They apologized, and began to heal Chibro and even attempt to resurrect some of the fallen.

The gang spends a day in Sigil.

Josiah

Spends mornings at the Civic Fest Hall (Clerk’s Ward) with Sensate contacts, sampling bizarre sensations and recording them into sensory stones. Had a vile oily drink that left a lingering taste for hours, and a pleasant citrus jelly.
Browsed the Great Bazaar for magic items and bullets. Nothing notable found, but stocked up on mundane ammunition.
Visited the Hall of Information (a massive, chaotically organized library) to research architecture, struggled with the filing system, and had a poor investigation check. Left empty-handed.
The oily taste finally faded after his third ale at dinner.

Chibro

Chibro spent significant time in the Hive Ward, navigating its shifting streets (successful Survival check).
Witnessed a Dabus disassemble and rebuild a collapsing building with mere gestures.
Discovered the Ditch overflowing with fresh water. A decennial event where a portal to the Plane of Water opens and flushes the rancid ditch clean. A spontaneous street festival erupted. Chibro collected a bottle of water from the Plane of Elemental Water.
For lunch, found the Square Bar in the Ladies’ Ward — an automated establishment staffed by Quadratum, a sentient gear-and-eye mechanism that serves perfectly geometric food and drink. Quadratum revealed it was made in “a great place of wheels and gears” but was rejected by its creators; it now finds purpose and joy in serving on its own terms.
On leaving, was approached by an obsidian-skinned, floating figure (a Dao) who flicked him a card: “Cindery’s Bonded Labor: Discreet and Guaranteed,” with directions to a shop in the Lower Ward.
Visited the shop and negotiated the purchase of a Galeb Duhr named Tolland (3-year contract, negotiated down from 3,000 to 2,700 gold). The Dao repeatedly discouraged Chibro from anthropomorphizing Tolland, insisting he’s “just a rock.”
On the walk home through the portal to Faunel (a gate town in the Clerk’s Ward, near the Tower of Sorceress, that cuts travel to the Outlands from days to hours), Tolland stopped to roll in the earth, seeming to “reconnect” with the ground. On Chibro’s demiplane, Tolland enthusiastically hauled boulders, built a miniature mountain, and shifted from his melancholy humming to a happy tune.

Angelus

Wandered the Lower Ward looking for… something (he hasn’t yet decided on the question he wants answered).
Passed the Shattered Temple (creepy vibes) and the Great Foundry.
Found a card game outside the Generous Coin between a Triton and a Bariaur. Used subtle divine magic (a “Bewitched nose twitch”) to subtly flip a card and cause the Triton to lose. The Bariaur won big and cashed out with the money-changer embedded in the wall. The Bariaur failed to notice Angelus’s involvement.
Spent midday in the Ladies’ Ward manipulating street games for amusement and collecting tips from lucky gamblers.
For lunch, wandered into McNastie’s, a profoundly unsanitary establishment run by a massive ball-of-fur creature (species indeterminate) and a tentacled assistant that rolls out from the back. Received a charred, mealy leg of mystery meat (terrible) and surprisingly good liquor (had 4 drinks, passed all Con saves). Failed a deception check when probing the proprietor for info. Pretended to be a health inspector, got a free meal. Beaded curtain on the door.
Noticed a fiendish-looking figure in fine robes enter McNastie’s asking about “Chirper’s” and long-term residents. The proprietor deflected, and the figure left. Angelus attempted to follow him but, being drunk (disadvantage on Stealth), was spotted and easily lost in the crowd. Knows roughly which direction the figure headed.

Tag

Rides his Nightmare (flaming horse) pulling his portable stall through the streets to the Hive Ward, accompanied by Cath (his cat). Sets up his jewelry stall outside Fell’s relocated tattoo shop.
Has a warm friendship with Fell, they share meals and exchange stories over tea at day’s end.
Encountered Idic, a Githyanki, storming out of Fell’s shop. Idic was furious that Fell refused him more tattoos, claiming his body “can’t hold any more.” Idic demanded Tag sell him something impressive, flipped Tag’s cart in anger, and after a tense exchange, Tag proposed a hot dog eating contest. Idic accepted, to be held the next morning at the Great Gymnasium.
Discovered Allesha’s Pantry, a charity food distribution in the Hive Ward. Met Allesha, donated 5 gold, received premium tea sachets. Was introduced to an ancient, nearly blind elf woman (~850–900 years old) who arrived at the pantry in a disoriented state and has been sheltered there. She possesses a broken magical brooch (a hexagonal red gemstone cracked in half) with scorch marks on the metal setting. Tag confirmed it’s magical (Arcana check) and took it to examine/repair, but hasn’t had time yet.
Business picked up unexpectedly in the afternoon, so the brooch remains unexamined.

The Hot Dog Eating Contest

The next morning, the party convened at the Great Gymnasium. Tag commissioned Clear (the Bariur cook at Chirper’s) to make hot dogs. She used drake intestines (purchased from the Great Bazaar for 5 gold, notably near-sacrilegious for a Githyanki) and meat from an unnaturally crimson boar-like creature, grilling them over old coals from the axe-throwing pit. Baguettes served as buns.

But a creature was lurking,
By Josiah’s poor head.

Chibro’s stockings were hung by the fire with care,
In hopes the mustard would dry from them there.

And Tag with his panther,
And Angelus in the bath,
Had just settled their brains for a long Sigil nap.

When from Josiah’s small room there arose such a clatter,
They sprang from their beds to see what was the matter!

The morning after the attack on Chirper’s, the party woke sore and bruised. Angelus was snoozing on in his “water bed”(the staff having officially redesignated the old bathing room as his quarters and set up a new bath in what used to be Kor’s room). Rumors of the attack had spread, and patrons peppered the group with questions over breakfast.

Tag & the Brooch

Rolling out of bed, Tag spotted the old elf woman’s broken hexagonal brooch glinting on the table where it had tumbled from his pack during the night. His closer examination revealed tool marks around the crack. It looked like someone had intentionally been damaging the jewel but, more disturbingly, the crack appeared smaller than when he first saw it.
Using his jeweler’s kit, Tag confirmed a thin new layer of gemstone had grown over the gouges overnight. The brooch seemed to be healing itself.
Close inspection revealed engraved writing in infernal along the inner corners. Josiah’s Arcana check determined the brooch has no active magical aspect but carries a lingering aura of divination magic.
The inscription is mirrored along the back. One side reads “Penumbra Cadre”, the other is an older, archaic dialect of Infernal that best translates as “the Lower Cadre” or “the Under Cadre.”
Tag visited Allesha’s Pantry, where she was distributing food to a line of the destitute (including a water-like elemental). Tag was able to expertly mime his request, and he was led inside.
The pantry’s back dormitory held three residents: a scruffy, soot-faced elf coughing into his blanket, a figure of indetermine age and gender who stared silently at Tag the entire visit without moving, and Idris, the ancient elf woman, muttering to herself.
When shown the brooch, Idris became agitated and mistook Tag for someone named “Leoquin.”
- “It knocks and knocks and knocks. It never opens. But they know. We talk. He whispers.”
- She speaks of a whisperer who contacted her through a conduit: “He whispered me, and I whisper back, and we whisper, and we share. We shouldn’t have done what we did.”
- I gouged out the eye, but his face is still there." (When Tag pointed out there’s no face on the brooch, she cupped his hand and turned the brooch toward him: “This is the face. This is the eye.”)
- She stopped the whispering “for us and for you and for them,” but “it never stops. It grows and grows and will come back. It’s bound to me. I hear it talking. Still now.”
Hearing the name “Penumbra Cadra” and “Leoquin,” she reeled, pleading with Tag not to leave her again. Allesha notes Idris is very old and her mind mostly gone, she has perhaps a year or two left, at most.
Tag, wanting to connect the brooch to himself, weighed whether or not he would kill the woman to do it. The session ended before he made his decision.

Chibro’s Deliveries

At breakfast, Thom delivered two items left for Chibro:

This was kind of a psuedo-session. Most of the party was unavailable.

We did establish two key plot points from Hankin’s perspective:

He is definitely putting his temple a few hours outside of Faunel about a half-hour’s walk SW from Chibro’s demiplane portal near a river.
He has hired workers in Sigil to help with the project, specifically a Bleak Cabal-adjacent group called the Grey Stone Collective. There is Gnome Ann, a very tall and slender human woman with too-small coveralls and a bright red cone-shaped hat, who is the surveyor currently onsite with him to inspect the land and present the project to the contract lead back in Sigil. She brought with her to the site Hurgus Durgus, a Dwarven Mason who will be inspecting the stone in the mountains around the site.

The Rigus Problem

Angelus arrived at his house in Rigus last session only to find Dreri there, sans Grebo.

Angelus, you traveled to Rigus by way of a portal from Sigil. It dropped you out into the Great Pass where you had a near miss with a passing group of goblins who were on their way to the city. You managed to talk your way out of trouble, and even joined their party and travelled with them to the city. You tried to teach them how to play one of your favorite card games along the way, but they just kept eating the cards.
Upon arrival to the city, the brutality of the city’s architecture rose around you. The iron walls of the city blocked all view into the city itself, but you passed through an enormous gate, following the crowds of new recruits.
You were interrogated as your purpose, given a large inch-thick white badge on a heavy chain to wear while in the city, and then followed the directions to your house. You noticed everyone had a badge like yours, though they were in all different colors.
You had to hike up through three of the city’s eight hexagonal districts before you found your house, coughing through the everpresent smoke from hundreds of campfires, and shielding your ears from the ringing of metal on metal as the recruits around you endlessly practiced their fighting drills.
It was a squat building with thick stone walls, no windows other than some wooden slats, and a single dust-choked plant tucked into a stone garden in front of it.
When you walked in the door, you saw Dreri sitting at a stone table in what you assumed to be the kitchen. She looked up as you entered and smiled thinly.
“So this vacation home of yours is a little bit crap, if I can say. We’ve got a problem. I left to check what counts for a marketplace in this city to see if I could get some food. When I came back, I found this note.” She handed it to you.

Sigil Calendar

What day is it? Are ye barmy? How does a fiend from Gehenna slide into Sigil and stack his hours up against the endless day of Mount Celestia? Do YE want to try to check the timekeeping of a Modron fresh off a portal from Mechanus? Her Ladyship herself doesn’t seem to give a brainrat’s tail about the time, other than that it keeps ticking. Everyone in Sigil just lets the days go by, unless you’re one of the addle-coved Guvners. - Kellsie Kaluzny, owner and proprietor of the Ubiquitous Wayfarer Inn.

The Demiplane

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The Demiplane

It is where time stands still while the forest breathes.
It is where magic sleeps to feed the roots of a new world.
It is where the brambles keep the outside at bay.

Overview

This demiplane is roughly 1.5 acres in size, with thick brambles around the outer edges. It is covered in thick earthy loam, with a single tall sapling standing in the exact center of the plane, covered in rounded leaves that emit a soft but bright light, illuminating the whole plane. At one corner stands a rugged pile of stone in roughly the shape of an arch, where the entrance portal forms. At the opposite corner stands a mirrored stone arch, with the exit portal.

Idris talks to me at night now, when I can’t sleep, which is every night. She says someone ought to write down what happened while we still remember it right. She is older than mother was.

The cheap touts are likely there to steal your jink and leave you in a dark alley somewhere in the Hive Ward.

The bravest touts will take you anywhere in Sigil, even to Undersigil, but it’ll cost you dearly, and they won’t hesitate to leave you behind if they think you’re being a sodding idiot.

Trip Log - Sigil to Gehenna

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Trip Log - Sigil to Gehenna

Written by Tabithgor

Revolvus, Week 3 - Sigil
I’ve been asked by Small to take a caravan into the outer planes to the Crawling City to deliver a package. Small didn’t tell me much about what it is, but that’s normal. I haven’t met the group yet, but he says they’re pretty solid. Here’s hoping. Gehenna’s nothing to laugh at, and we have to go by way of the Wasting Plains. But hey, maybe I can refill my supply of Nettles. That tea I made from them last time was strong enough to knock me out for days. Best sleep I’ve had in years.

Ubiquitous Wayfarer Inn

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Ubiquitous Wayfarer Inn

Location: Lower Ward, but with entrances in the Lady’s Ward and the Clerk’s Ward.
Owner: Raien Blackhome

The Wayfarer, the chant goes, offers an amenity for nearly every planar being to indulge in, catering to the most exotic and diverse needs. Rumour has it, this is made possible by creating pocket planes within the Ethereal, each accessible only by a specialized portal. And those portals, they’re something else. The keys? Unique drinks, special concoctions, each a secret of the Wayfarer’s staff. Imagine the moment of unveiling the portal in the Wayfarer, an exotic mix of bub in hand, the anticipation of a new adventure tingling in your veins.

Undersigil

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Undersigil

Very few upstanding citizens (such as there are in Sigil) ever think about Undersigil, much less visit.

This is the place where the sewage and waste of Sigil’s six wards flow into, where defunct and illegal faction remnants like the Coterie of Cakes disappear into.

Most Touts will refuse to take a cutter there, even if paid handsomely.

Points of Interest

The former home of the Coterie of Cakes faction.
The Drowned Nations, the swirling pool of waste that slowly seeps from Sigil into the Elemental Plane of Water through a portal at its’ base.
The Loop - A terrifying trap where, once delivered into its depths by a portal, escape becomes nigh impossible.

This peculiar wand has a faintly sticky surface and exudes the sweet, faint aroma of honey. Its handle is adorned with delicate carvings resembling buzzing bees. It has 6 charges and regains all expended charges after a long rest.

By expending one charge, the wielder summons a single bee to a space within 60 feet. The summoned bee is hostile to all creatures except other bees and will attack anyone within its flying range (10 ft). On a successful attack, the bee deals 1 piercing damage and forces the target to make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the target also takes 1 poison damage.

This snug uniform has symbols of air stitched into it and leathery flaps that stretch along the arms, waist, and legs to create wings for gliding. A suit of wingwear has 3 charges. While you wear the suit, you can use a bonus action and expend 1 charge to gain a flying speed of 30 feet until you land. At the end of each of your turns, your altitude drops by 5 feet. Your altitude drops instantly to 0 feet at the end of your turn if you didn’t fly at least 30 feet horizontally on that turn. When your altitude drops to 0 feet, you land (or fall), and you must expend another charge to use the suit again.

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Wintu’s Letters

First Letter

Sishu, I wish you could see this place! I know I left without telling you, and I’m sorry, but you wouldn’t understand. I hope this note finds you. I’m sending it via a traveler headed back to Sigil from Gehenna. He won’t tell me how he’s getting back, but he seems pretty confident.
I just left the Crawling City. Dad would always tell us about it and his ‘daring escape’ from the Yugoloths. I never knew how much of it was made up, but seeing it now, with my own eyes…If he was exaggerating, it wasn’t by much.
I’m here with allies. I can’t tell you much, as I don’t know who will be reading this letter, but I wanted to let you know I’m okay. I’m here with Her. She’s showing us such amazing things. There are creatures–such fantastically powerful ones–that live between the cracks. They whisper to us when we’re with Her, showing us what is coming, what they are bringing, when we open the door…I hear them knocking.
We went to the City to scout it out for the next phase. We flew in while it was docked at the Night Market, then back out hours later before it left. Now, we are to wait here in the Market until the right time.
I know you won’t understand what I’m doing, but I promise you: It’s to save us. Dad always talked about what would happen if the Crawling City fell. The whispers he heard while enslaved there.
The world is changing. I’m doing this to make sure we have a place in the new one.
Love,
Wintu

Witherbeak Observatory

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Witherbeak Observatory

Witherbeak Observatory is a remote research facility located atop the Bleakheights cliffs in Bedlam, the Gate-Town to the chaotic plane of Pandemonium. Established by the eccentric gnome arcanist Professor Orbys Bumblewing, the observatory is dedicated to the study of planar meteorology and the harnessing of elemental winds for experimental magical and technological applications. The structure is known for its precarious position amidst near-constant storms and its array of unstable, weather-powered devices. Due to the volatile nature of both the local environment and Bumblewing’s inventions, the observatory is frequently affected by elemental surges and targeted by regional air-genasi factions seeking to exploit its arcane resources.

Yugoloth Living Weapon Shortsword

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Battleloth Shortsword - Living Weapon

This sword appears to be a normal shortsword, with a yellowish tinge to the metal. It functions as a +1 magical weapon, as the sword seems to lean into each attack, bending the movements to strike with greater, more deadly force.

However, this sword is actually a Battleloth, a creature created by Arcanoloths long ago to serve as living weapons to the bravest warriors of the Blood War. It has a mind of its own, though it is made to be most comfortable in its weapon form and will avoid its humanoid form unless entirely unavoidable.

He carries a clearly magical sword that he claims will be how they return to Acheron after their training, and values inner strength as much, if not more, than outer strength.
Relationship to the Party: Friendly, mildly impressed by Kor, believes Gobbie to be a weakling.
