The Saga
Fireseek 7, CY 592
Sigil, an interesting place to visit
Zilanderan informs the party about Sigil: Sigil is a doughnut on the top of an infinitely tall spire (like Galactus holding a bagel). People from every plane can appear on Sigil, but no gods can appear here other than the Lady of Pain. Sigil constantly changes, we’ll need a map. There are several groups that can guide us around the city including light boys (good), Touts (guides, not so good), and sedan chairs (taxies).
Stay out of the hive, but also be watchful in other wards. Rules of our plane may not apply, as all are welcome on Sigil. Harmoniums are sort of police, but hold to their own laws and wills (though stay in favor with the lady of pain).
Ask about next adventuring plane. Zil explaines that Jith Vendhzar, master of the Obsianus House, has been researching the lost port keys. Obsianus house has several port keys. They know where they all go, except for three. Zil plans to send us to one of these: wood tube with un-melting ice, a ornate rendering of a windmill, and a set of bronze rings. The environments should be safe, but it’s unknown what will actually be on the plane. Jith may be able to give us more information before we go. Party welcome to attempt to find something in the city. Several places include the Illuminatries Society (high $$), Wandering Wizard (magic shop), School of magic unpleasantness (name says it all), Broken cobblestone (specializes in one time travel magics).
Rwar, we're monsters!
Laertes and Thrax leave Zil and venture into the city. After being pitched by a potential Tout, attempt to head to the bazaar. As they move on, attacked by sooty lizards. The lizards steal a pouch from Thrax, and Leartes holy symbol. Thrax puts both the lizards to sleep, only to be attacked by gnomes with crossbows. Fight the gnomes and lizards for a few rounds. As combat turns for the worse, Burris, the would-be tout, comes to the party’s rescue. Party grabs a felled gnome’s pouch, and heads off away from the scene of the crime. Burris informs the party of the phase gnome’s and their consortium. Warns we may now be on their list.
Pouch has a dull grey sheened orb, 35g, 31s, 43c. He takes us to Imels Happy Tongue for a quick rest and some delicious cheese. Find the orb is an Orb of Inevitable Continuance (as per phb). Discuss with Burris about where to buy ritual components. He suggests Wandering Wizard. Jathan, the wandering wizard, runs the store. He tries to sell us spells, but they are in some sort of foreign magical formula. Did find some spells which we could purchase. Asked about port keys. Tells us of spell keys, which are required to cast spells on some planes. Depends on the plane which spells would be affected.
