[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 5602136, member: 67338"] May I just say I agree with 90% of what you said Merric...if not more, but let me tell you how I made sigil (I like the basic idea) make since in my worlds... The Lady of Pain was a child of both a primordial and a God pre the divine war... both her parents where killed in the war and she (like the primal spirits) lashed out at both sides. When the war ended she still hated the gods...but was smart enough to know she could not win. The Gods then made a non aggression pact with her...and Sigil was born. The deal was magic... If she leaves the city of doors she loses her power, but if the gods enter so do they... she is also very powerful on her own. this lead to one epic moment in my world... [sblock=my omg moment in epic levels] The lady of pain beat to crud, bleeeding and dieing begging the PCs for help... The ghoul king had eaten the flesh of a dead god, and absorbed some power, and had a plan spaning artafact he was testing for orcus...then entered the city(not being part of the deal he didnt lose the power) stood in the way of the lady of pain, and when she went to throw him into a maze he stoped it and said "In a big city like this you take arguements like this up the ladder, but a back woods guy like me...I just want to take this outside..." when he attacked her he ripped her through the planes, and almost killed her...eating her flesh and gaining more power [/sblock] having a city of doors in witch the gods do not interfere or enter with a very powerful force in charge is a good plot point...
