Sigil: The City of Doors

"I can be kind of a cause addict. If I find something that I believe in I will probably throw in with all my weight."

"The planes are infinite, cutter. Least that's what they say. Can't rightly say I'm a fan of real conflict if it ain't necessary, but you'll find plenty of that both here in the Cage and out there on the planes."

"Sounds like a nice vacation spot," he replies. "And a bar fight isn't a conflict in life, it's just a fun distraction. I am not a fan of... I guess you'd say a peaceful life? I had that for a couple years and went stir crazy. And that peaceful period had bar fights and local brawls. But they're so... insular."

"Oh, there's plenty of conflict in Arborea," she said, "The fun kind. Tavern brawls are even more common there than they are here, I'd reckon. It's a celestial plane of good for sure, but it's also aligned with chaos, so it's never dull. Something about the nature of the place makes you feel everything more deeply. If you do visit though, make sure to obey the customs, they get mighty prickly about those that break 'em. Word's your bond, and all that."

"I should be fine. My mind snapped over the monotony of 'too much of a good thing' when I was in Ched Nasad. Life gets really unpleasant without purpose or conflict. I imagine Arborea is a great visit, though. I'll have to give it a peek if I can get the chance."

"It's not so bad. At least not for a little bit after the rain comes in. 'Course, rain hardly ever comes in. But sure, I do a bit of planeswalking when the call rises. Toured most of the gate-towns, visited a few planes here and there. My bandore here I snagged from a bet over in Arborea. Great place. Wonderful people and atmosphere. But don't stay too long or they'll need to strap you down in the bleakers' Gatehouse as you detox or you're gonna do whatever you can to get back."

"Grew up here then? How often do you get out for some fresh air?" he asks. "Everything going on seems like it'd be fun to grow up around, but the smog a bit less so."

"Ethereal's not too hard to get into, this demiplane of yours though, well, maybe it is and maybe it isn't. I might just up and ask Ambar some time, if I catch the chance. Could be you can just walk in there from the Ethereal," She said with a shrug.

Next question had her take a drink first. "Not much to say really, grew up 'ere in the cage. Didn't much care for the direction my family was going in, so I went about and picked a different calling. That being music. Though, the blood of the planes in me was probably always gonna push me in that direction. Anyhow, toyed about with the notion of joining the sensates for a good long while before settling on the godsmen instead."

"I've asked about it here and apparently if anyone knows about any portals there, they're keeping it to themselves. It's apparently incredibly difficult to get to. An folks generally don't like letting mortals play there because we don't have the proper perspective for time travel or something," he says with a shrug.

"And I don't have any particular questions about any of the factions. I kind of like... learning through experience. I enjoy a conversation though. I've shared a bit about me, you up for giving your story?"

"Well, don't know which Power that is you're speaking of, but Sigil's closed off to them as it is all Powers. Don't reckon it means they can't give their followers any of their spells and what not, but I suppose it could be to blame for not being able to speak to her. As for the plane you mentioned, I've only heard bits and bobs of it. DIdn't think anyone's ever been there and come back. If I'm not mistaken, it's somewhere within the Ethereal, no? Ethereal Plane's where the Godsmen make our kip outside of Sigil. Reckon I could easily swing a portal key and make better time than any non-godsmen on getting you anywhere within it if you're ever keen on going back there for some reason. Pardon the time pun there."

"As far as the other faction's concerned, well, I can share what I know of the chant and dark both, though I'm more familiar with some than others. All you needs do is ask."
