[QUOTE="Kinetti, post: 2902317, member: 34654"] The Lady of Pain is as powerful as many gods, true, but she's not truly a God in the terms of that she has or needs worshippers. In fact, she flays to death or simply Mazes anyone who tries to worship her. She does have seemingly-godlike power over the Portals that lead in and out of Sigil, which if those did not exist, Sigil would be cut off from the multiverse, period. She also has the mysterious power of ensuring that no true gods can access the Cage, though their priests can enter as long as they don't cause too much trouble, just as anyone else can, and they are not cut off from the power they draw from the gods they worship. As for laws of Sigil, it depends on the ward, with rich-people districts like the Lady's Ward having much better law enforcement than the Hive, which is the slums of Sigil. The Market Ward is somewhere in between these two in terms of law enforcement, recieving ... at least near as much as any other well-travelled market in the multiverse. And so, the dangerousness of Sigil wholly depends on which ward you are in, and in that indeed, pretty much most any being in the multiverse can potentially be here, so you may find As for fearing the Lady... yeah she's pretty scary, but she only comes out for real big, important things that she thinks would mar the balance that exists in Sigil. Your average adventurer would not likely encounter her, unless they do something so mightily-drastic that they'd have cause to be flayed by her dagger-like glance, (she just appears, looks at the target, and ... well, you know the saying about how looks can kill...) or Mazed. The best sites to reference for information on Planescape, which surely includes info on Sigil specifically, too, there are two excellent sites: [B][url]www.mimir.net[/url] [/B] and [B][url]www.planewalker.com[/url][/B] I hope this is information of use, [I] Kinetti Nighthunter, Esq., of the Fraternity of Order the ever-educational CAT[/I] [/QUOTE]
