Sigil

Nestled at the crossroads of the multiverse, Sigil stands as an enigmatic and sprawling metropolis. Its most distinguishing feature is the massive torus-shaped structure that hovers at its center, known as the “Spire.” The Spire appears as a great needle reaching both into the sky and down into the heart of the city, and it is a symbol of Sigil’s central role in connecting disparate worlds.

Surrounding the Spire is a vast cityscape that spans across multiple levels, districts, and neighborhoods. Each district showcases a unique blend of architecture, cultures, and inhabitants from countless planes of existence. Walk the streets of Sigil, and you might pass by celestial beings, fiends, elementals, extraplanar traders, scholars, and adventurers of all kinds.

Sigil is known for its distinctive circular nature, with portals called “portals” scattered throughout the city. These portals are like doors leading to other planes, each guarded by powerful factions, and they are the lifeblood of the city’s economy. Sigil’s inhabitants, known as “Cagers,” have mastered the art of navigating this complex web of portals, making the city a melting pot of interdimensional commerce, intrigue, and adventure.

The Lady of Pain, an enigmatic and immensely powerful entity, maintains a watchful eye over Sigil. She is an enforcer of balance and order, and her presence deters many from openly challenging her authority. Despite the Lady’s influence, Sigil remains a place of both opportunity and danger, where adventurers, scholars, and seekers of knowledge gather to explore the mysteries of the planes and the connections between them.
