Moil, the City That Waits

[Mechanurge]

It also appears in 'Guide to the Ethereal' in the listing of demiplanes, and the world it came from, Renais/Funeral/The Funeral World, was featured in 'Dead Gods'.

Yes, Moil appears in the Planescape adventure Dead Gods as a transit demiplane on the way to Tenebrous' (aka Orcus) hideout in the Negative Energy Plane. I believe it was spelled Ranais, the Funereal World, but I could be mistaken.

Moil itself doesn't appear, but the dead world of Ranais that it was originally a part of does.

no, no, you're thinking of a mohel.

Mohel would be a stupid name for a city.

Interesting thread.. But must admit that I misread the thread title as "Moil, the City that walks"

Had a vision of some colossal construct city that walked the landscape. I knew the name Moil from the CArc feat, so was a little confused as to how the walking was connected with necromancy..

But that aside, great images. Perhaps a city where the dead themselves are carrying the entire city like a platform, walking all the time?

Or to return to the colossal walking construct city.. what if it was some enormous mummified creature instead? Images from the githyanki city on the corpse of a dead god flashes by... mummy god walking across the land, with the city on the back/being the city?

Sorry if this was a bit disjointed.. just got some nice ideas, and wanted to share.


on topic.. Moil - what is it waiting for? I dont know anything about it, and would appreciate a very condensed version.

Shemmy's cousins have the walking city franchise cornered.

Well, there is in fact a city that walks, on the plane of Gehenna. It's ruled by the yugoloth king.

And it is, it is, a glorious thing to be the yugoloth king!

Can we report a bad post for bad poetry?

Under these circumstances, I'd agree.

Just make sure that if you are ever admitted to a hospital and need a circular incision, that you dont get a cricumcision.

"Absolutely. It's good to be king."
