I just love how off gaurd he was when Zac said that, but it was also funny because I said it to myself at the exact same time Zac did. I'd never heard of Webdings before that.
I love how the "Brennan Lee Mulligan Guide to Planescape" is just 4 minutes of him saying "Wow, look at this! Oh, that's so cool!!" and it's probably the best marketing possible for this. It works! :)
@@appleseedtrees7512he's pronouncing it correctly, if you Google it there are lots of results on the story behind why Sigil the city is pronounced differently from sigil the English word.
I’m glad they did this. Brennan has mentioned his love for Planescape. I believe his first character in his first ever game was a female tiefling in a planescape campaign. His inner child must be FEASTING on all this.
I hope they bring back the time differential between planes. I loved how a day in hell was only a minute on the prime material plane. You go on an epic year-long adventure in hell and no one believed you because you were gone for like 1/2 hour.
For the gravity problem, I prefer to put an invisible portal in the middle that sends them to either a random place/plane or a prison cell on Sigil, depending on the campaign, haha
AJ Pickett (D&D scholar extraordinaire) described an Iron Golem doubling over and screaming in agony because the Lady's shadow passed over it. So cool. 😃
Ignis years you, Brennan. The absolute love in his voice for the setting - absolutely lovely. I would love to be part of a campaign in Sigil - Torment was my first real exposure to DND and kinda set the bar.
It's been a couple decades, but Planescape: Torment still holds a place in the back of my brain. I'd love to see a Planescape campaign on Dimension 20, or have Larian Studios make a Planescape game after the success of Baldur's Gate 3.
Planescape was my first major campaign. Took my players from level 1 - 13 back in the 90's. My group is still together and I am so stoked on this coming back. I love it!
Well, they've 1.5x timesed the page count, and there aren't a bunch of new racial options so that's free real estate too. Hopefully it's enough, but the 2e wikis still exist for fleshing everything out.
I doubt WotC would go for it but it would be cool if Larian Studios got to make a high-level campaign taking place in Sigil. Hm, it might actually be possible to model the entirety of Sigil in the game, and run around seing it hang over you...
I actually was introduced to DND through a discord server that has community run oneshots in a shared world where every quest starts in Sigil and then you just take a portal out to wherever the DM wants to take you for that session (Its Called D&D Freinds massive recommendation) And yes i did once play in a oneshot where that DMs story was there was a BBEG that got trapped in The Lady of Pain's mazes and had started to take them over as its new Domain so you needed to get in there and kill them before they amassed anymore power... But of course the only way to do that was for the party to worship The Lady of Pain 🤣
Ive been waiting for the planescape setting to more love. I fell in love with planescape long ago and im so happy to see it back. I tried adapting the old rules into 3.5 and make it work but it was so hard to get it to work. Im so happy theres finally more work being done getting it back into the modern rules
I remember an old DnD web show mentioning this once, and giving the most important lesson in Planescape....' Thou shalt not F(bleep) with the Lady Of Pain'. Do not mess with a character so powerful that she doesn't even have stats. No not think you can outsmart her by picking a race thats naturally good with mazes....because it's at the DM's discretion over whether or not if the 'maze' is just a million-mile-long hallway.
@@alexanderelliott8065 I was referencing a Make Some Noise skit with Brennan. Look up "The long awaited meeting between times new roman and comic sans."
Planescape is the best setting. When I was a kid I got BG1 and PT at the same time and since then I never finished BG1 but completed PT 4 times. RPGs are story and worldbuilding and PT wins in both categories. Too bad BG3 wasnt a PT2 BUT they came close with planeshifting, gargantuan monsters, ancient artifacts and githyanki running around. Also you can find "The Folly of Zerthimon" in the Creche.
i love brennan but i legit needed some info on how this campaign works and how to play it ((because i need like 3 varients of my character according to my DM ?)) but all i know is that servants talk using wingdings over their heads....
You try and jump off of Sigil theres only two options 1 you fail falling back down to a big ouch or 2 you find yourself in a planar storm and drop out on a random plane
Why a bad angel and a good devil? Alignments wee fixed in 2nd edition. Everything could happen because the planes are infinite, but this doesn't mean that a good devil was not a singularity; same for a bad angel... Nobody said that the lady of pain wasn't a god...simply nobody knows...it was one of the mysteries of the planes...
Um Actually* the Dabus speak in rebuses, not emojis. So stuff like c+🐜 to say can't. And yes, I've only watched the first two seconds of the video. *Sorry, couldn't resist
Sure, but thats just another type of hieroglyphic language symbols like webdings or emojis. Either way you describe it, it's really interesting to have a people of powerful (nondivine) servants (civil aids?) who communicate primarily by publicly broadcasting their internal chat state in a series of pictures above their head
@@extragarb for me the key distinction is that a rebus is a puzzle. It's something you have to decipher, rather than something you interpret (a fine distinction, I acknowledge). It adds a somewhat impish quality to interacting with them.
Brennan I love you brother How much did Wotc and Hasbro pay you to make this? The 5e update of planescape was a let down for dungeon masters and players In terms of content we have the box set formula doesn’t work spelljammer proved this and so does planescape. I bought it and even I say the update doesn’t get all the planes in planescape along with sigil and the outlands.
No, berk, it's pronounced Siggle--look yer rattlin' yer bonebox and getting a bit addle-coved about how the cant of yer local backwater says a word but this ain't yer plane or this 'americans' or whatever, and out here, every cutter from the sixes to the sevens and even the knights of the post know it's 'Siggle' if ya don't wanna sound like some green prime with too much jink and not enough sense to stay out of the dead book.
Every book with Sigil in it makes a point, in character, of pointing out that it's pronounced 'siggle' and that those who pronounce it sijill are rubes who are easily parted from their coin.
@@dychostarr I don't recall my wording but I did not use any harsh language. All I did was espouse the greatness of the Greyhawk setting compared to Planescape for sub level 10 adventures.

What will you try to do first in the city of Sigil?
Brennan: "They're the servants of Lady of Pain, and they speak in Webdings!"
Zac Oyama: "Don't you mean Wingdings?"
Brennan: :O
Someone got in the comments...
Why not both?
Both is good.
I just love how off gaurd he was when Zac said that, but it was also funny because I said it to myself at the exact same time Zac did. I'd never heard of Webdings before that.

@@thebtm it made me buy it
Brennan should have his own character to name a sourcebook after "Mulligan's Guide to the Furthest Planes"
Need to see Brennan run a planescape game with this level of enthusiasm. It'd be a hell of a show.
I'd be there day 1 if he did
Gotta be for the 20th season of Dimension20. With some visits to the portals to the worlds of previous seasons.
He'd have to learn how to pronounce Sigil though
@@appleseedtrees7512he's pronouncing it correctly, if you Google it there are lots of results on the story behind why Sigil the city is pronounced differently from sigil the English word.
@@sarriest oh cool some producers wanted to retcon it to make it more unique and memorable. Thanks, docuhe 👍
I’m glad they did this. Brennan has mentioned his love for Planescape. I believe his first character in his first ever game was a female tiefling in a planescape campaign. His inner child must be FEASTING on all this.
Just like he's feasting on almonds.
Emily Axford would immediately start trying to worship the lady of pain
Starting a secret cult of LOP worship, and trying to keep it secret from the target of the worship.
This is the realest comment
Honestly, same.
It won't end well if the DM plays the Lady as intended lol
Get yourself a guy who talks about you the way Brennan talks about Planescape
Thank you😂
and who ALSO talks about Planescape that way (I wish both, plz)
Brennan just casually dropping a Constantine reference during a D&D video. My neighbors didn't hear that screech, nope. This looks really cool!
I hope they bring back the time differential between planes. I loved how a day in hell was only a minute on the prime material plane. You go on an epic year-long adventure in hell and no one believed you because you were gone for like 1/2 hour.
Best possible marketing👌. My only complaint is that 4 minutes of Brennan is never enough Brennan
So we need a series of Brennan taking about the planes
...Could it be Brennan just, like... running a game in Planescape?
Thank the gods for Brennan Lee Mulligan.
He is the only god I worship
@@robo7643instead of the mazes he just sends you to larp camp and you have an excellent time
Very glad that Brennan was allowed to swear in an interview
For the gravity problem, I prefer to put an invisible portal in the middle that sends them to either a random place/plane or a prison cell on Sigil, depending on the campaign, haha
AJ Pickett (D&D scholar extraordinaire) described an Iron Golem doubling over and screaming in agony because the Lady's shadow passed over it. So cool. 😃
If Brennan ran a Planescape campaign I'd be all in to watch that. Shut up and take my money!

I aspire to love anything as much as Brennan loves this
I would know so much more D&D lore if there were more videos like this featuring Brennan.
Planescape was my first major campaign. Took my players from level 1 - 13 back in the 90's. My group is still together and I am so stoked on this coming back. I love it!

Brennan makes me excited for planescape! But after the phoned in spelljammer box set I am super hesitant.
Well, they've 1.5x timesed the page count, and there aren't a bunch of new racial options so that's free real estate too.
Hopefully it's enough, but the 2e wikis still exist for fleshing everything out.
Don't get it. It feels less like a return to the Planescape setting and more like a Family Guy cutaway joke about Planescape.
To say I do not speak, is a mistake, but I like Brennan Lee Mulligan anyway.
*RUNS*
@@danielkubicek1323no point Berk, if the Lady wants you mazed or flayed then you're mazed or flayed.

Hm, it might actually be possible to model the entirety of Sigil in the game, and run around seing it hang over you...

now I see why spell jammer drew the short end of the stick... they put all their effort into Planescape... whatever, they're both cool lol

You can't tell me that the Lady of Pain's servants don't sound like animal crossing characters
Please just... get Brennan to announce EVERYTHING about D&D.
"That's all I want, gimmie this little weirdo!" Perfectly describes me and anything with Brennan Lee Mulligan.
I feel that same excitement. Planescape meant so much to me
I remember an old DnD web show mentioning this once, and giving the most important lesson in Planescape....' Thou shalt not F(bleep) with the Lady Of Pain'.

I imagine certain parts of Sigil have tram systems that go over the streets and skirt the middle of the circular gravity plane.
Updated my journal
Done properly, you can hold entire campaigns on one inner wall of Sigil.
Technically since it’s a torus Sigil *only* has one inner wall
The entire Planescape: Torment game only leaves Sigil once or twice and you don't even get to all the wards.
This is the best advertisement for a product I’ve ever seen.
Planescape for dimension 20!!!
They need him more on these...it's because of him that I bought the book.
Brennan Lee Mulligan is my inspiration to be a DM
Same but as a player
1:20 don't you mean, "wingdings?" 😏
😂 Bravo!
Rhebus, they speak in rhebus. Visual word puzzles you have to figure out.

2:45 ever since I got into D&D I've been wanting to see an open-world video game set in Sigil where you can look up and see this.
The font is super similar to the Diablo font. Love it.
fun fact: that old planescape font from the original is one of the most hated fonts of all time lol
Well I guess that just convinced me to buy it.
I'm . . . pleasantly surprised to see Brennan here.
Is Brennan doing something Planescape related?
Anything Brennon touches is improved. At least with gaming. I don't know him well enough outside of that to know for sure otherwise.
*I've updated my journal*
I loved Planescape Torment
truly, the writing and setting was incredible.
Planescape is the best setting. When I was a kid I got BG1 and PT at the same time and since then I never finished BG1 but completed PT 4 times.

Does anyone have the link to the full interview?
Its the Lady of Pain still kickin up dust!
I dont know what planescape is but brennen got e excited to play it hahah
i love brennan but i legit needed some info on how this campaign works and how to play it ((because i need like 3 varients of my character according to my DM ?)) but all i know is that servants talk using wingdings over their heads....
Larian please
You try and jump off of Sigil theres only two options 1 you fail falling back down to a big ouch or 2 you find yourself in a planar storm and drop out on a random plane
I'm assuming Brennan Lee Mulligan is sold separately?
Did Brennan have a hand on this Adventure pack? Because this would be so cool if he did.
uncle from another world
I Love this
Okay. I'm happy to hear that it's Automata instead of Odomada.
I believe the font is Exocet
BLM is such a fantastic dm and he actually sold me on this
Please please please let him do a campaign for d20 using these
I hear an Amy Dallen!
Its not pronounced sijəl? I don't think I'm going with the hard G at my table. lol
BASED CHADS LEGENDS ALL
They're literally incapable of not saying "angels and devils at bars! woo" in every video. Every. Single. Video.
They also seem incapable of using or acknowledging the Cant which is offputting.
Why a bad angel and a good devil? Alignments wee fixed in 2nd edition. Everything could happen because the planes are infinite, but this doesn't mean that a good devil was not a singularity; same for a bad angel...
Nobody said that the lady of pain wasn't a god...simply nobody knows...it was one of the mysteries of the planes...

Yeah.
The word is sijil. Is the place is sighil?

Was.
5e is just unplayable
What's this? Brennan participating in CAPITALISM?
Americans pronouncing 'Sigil' like 'Siggle' will never not make me feel queasy. It's SID-JIL.
For the word 'sigil' as in magical seal, you are correct. But the name of the city is indeed pronounced Sig-il.
No, berk, it's pronounced Siggle--look yer rattlin' yer bonebox and getting a bit addle-coved about how the cant of yer local backwater says a word but this ain't yer plane or this 'americans' or whatever, and out here, every cutter from the sixes to the sevens and even the knights of the post know it's 'Siggle' if ya don't wanna sound like some green prime with too much jink and not enough sense to stay out of the dead book.
Jill not gill
"sigil" not "siggle"
Sigal = sidgal not sig al
Yeah it sounds wrong but that's how you say it. They talk funny there
The city is not pronounced the same as the English word, Brennan is correct.
Fair enough
Every book with Sigil in it makes a point, in character, of pointing out that it's pronounced 'siggle' and that those who pronounce it sijill are rubes who are easily parted from their coin.
Lame. Deleted my comment that criticized this. Unsubscribed.
