One thing I find really interesting about it is that it differs from Planescape and Spelljammer in not being an open-ended "travel anywhere!" sort of location. Instead it is one that is tied to a specific set of places (apparently almost half of which are up to individual DMs?). The more I think about that, the more flavor I realize that adds.I still love the vast possibilities of Planescape (and this sounds like it links Prime Material worlds together, not Outer Planes, so it actually has very little overlap with Sigil at all), but if there is going to be a second city for traveling between worlds, I love the idea of one that is more focused and thematic (plus I'm a sucker for hopepunk). The only tiny thing I don't like about this is my current campaign won't end before this comes out. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />P.S. I also have to say that claiming the Lady of Pain is a Mary Sue created to keep the PCs in line is, honestly, ridiculous. Beyond how she doesn't fit the definition of Mary Sue, it also vastly misinterprets her role in Planescape. It is very clearly stated that her role is to keep powerful planar creatures within Sigil in line and to keep far too powerful entities like the gods out. She is not a bad DM insert to stop PCs, she's the background factor that made it possible for low level PCs to have adventures in the planes. Prior to Planescape, the planes were specifically for high level adventures only. She enabled more adventures, not limit them. Saying she is there to limit the PCs is the complete opposite of her designed role in the setting.</blockquote>
