[QUOTE="ragboy, post: 2246747, member: 4151"] You'll want to look at getting these books to get a better idea of how 'intense' the faction thing is: The Factol's Manifesto In the Cage: A Guide to Sigil Uncaged: Faces of Sigil Faction War It was mentioned earlier that people have friends that are of different religious/political bents, but on the Planes, your belief _is_ you. It can certainly be disruptive to have opposed factions within the party, but you also find that there's a lot of leeway in the belief system that you won't get in the alignment system. Makes for a lot of intense roleplay and character development. For some great third-party fluff (without the unbalancing problems or the conversion problems) take a look at the following on mimir.net Cagerattlers - Interesting characters and how they fit their beliefs with their faction. [url="http://www.mimir.net/cagerattlers/index.shtml"]http://www.mimir.net/cagerattlers/index.shtml[/url] SIGIS - Paper of record for Sigil - lots of faction interaction and editorials: [url="http://mimir.net/sigis/sigis1.html"]http://mimir.net/sigis/sigis1.html[/url] Philosphers with Clubs - great treatise on the factions with some characters and other stuff [url="http://www.mimir.net/factions/index.html"]http://www.mimir.net/factions/index.html[/url] Visionaries - diehards fighting for change within their factions... Very illustrative of how individuals can take a belief and make it their own.
