With the caveat that the only source I have is a Facebook post in a Planescape group, another GameholeCon goer claims that they hinted at books based around the Rod of Seven Parts and the Infinite Staircase for 2024.

Does it? It's admittedly been a while, but last I checked, the only Planewalker site still online was a cache backup from when their server crashed back around 2014. There was some effort to reviving/renovating the site for a while afterward, but even that version seems to be gone these days...

Eh, there are a fair few adventure seeds in the old Planescape material that touch on IRL mythology to varying degrees (at least insofar as it's been historically portrayed within D&D). Track down a misplaced petitioner who accidentally wandered into Sigil on behalf of a servant of the Judge of...

The cover of Sigil and the Outlands (and of the slipcase as a whole) is essentially the same color scheme as the cover of the original Planescape Campaign Setting boxset.

Honestly, even as someone who does have a lot of attachment to the the 2e version of Planescape (as well as Planewalker's fan-made, post-Faction War version from the 3e-era, possibly to an even greater extent), I think the 5e Planescape is really good for what it set out to do, especially given...

Yes. It mentions that the Tower Sorcerous disappeared without warning one day long ago, taking the bulk of the Incantifers along with it and functionally dissolving them as a formal Faction, as it did in 2e era lore. General assumption was that it and everyone inside it had been sent to a Maze...

If it is, neither she nor the Incantifers are commenting on it.

Isn't specified in the book. That said, there was an old (sadly lost) RPGA Planescape module called Cutters written by Chris Perkins back in the day that supposedly centered around the Tower Sorcerous suddenly reappearing one day and the Incantifers trying to make a comeback, so my guess is...

Hadn't heard anything about it, but what do you know - hope they didn't lose anything from the old version of the site.

I see no indication that the Institute for Intellectual Excellence (the aforementioned university, run by a modron septon and located in the Market Ward) has any relation whatsoever to the Brothel for Slaking Intellectual Lusts (Fall-From-Grace's establishment from Torment, located in the...

I imagine the proverbial "edition wrap-up" doldrums with regards to the '24 rules update might also be coming into play - regardless of one's position on whether it's a new edition or not, should be or not, etc., I suspect a decent subset of people more or less checked out once they heard "New...

8-9 thousand, give or take - copied the raw text into a word doc to generate an estimate, but not sure how accurate that is at parsing tables and statblocks...

Deemphasized, as I understand it.

Printing the page as a PDF via Chrome suggests the Mortuary supplement is overall about 24 pages of material. Obviously not formatted for doing so cleanly, but good enough for an estimate.

Two Faction-related Charms (a la Supernatural Gifts from the DMG): Charm of the Dead Truce - makes hostile undead with INT less than or equal to 6 indifferent to you and gives advantage to Persuasion checks to influence them, lasts for 10 days or until you deal damage to an undead creature...

It's essentially an expanded Faction overview for the Heralds of Dust (going more in-depth on their philosophy, taboos, and activities), a general location guide to the Mortuary (non-comprehensive, but with four fleshed-out locations and tables for generating different encounters at various...

On the subject of Faction benefits, the recent Adventure Atlas: The Mortuary supplement over on Beyond serves as something of an expanded Faction overview for the Dustmen Heralds of Dust and includes a couple of Charms (a la Supernatural Gifts from the DMG) for representing stuff like the Dead...

Would've added several pages to a trio of books with already tight page count limitations and wildly imbalance the amount of info available on the Heralds of Dust with that for every other Faction, unless they added a comparable amount for each of those as well. I would love a full-on Factol's...
