Likewise, a bunch of nihilists (Dustmen-lite) might have words with a bunch of life-loving thrillseekers (Sensates-minor) about enjoying things.
#FACTION SIGIL GENERATOR FREE#
I still don't see the City Guard (instead of the Harmonium) enjoy the disrupting presence of any anarchists (Xaositects or Free League). Which, even without the absurd philosophical extremes, they could do. It is just a matter of replacing them with a more 'mundane' organisation if the disappearance of a faction leaves behind a power vacuum as they performed some official function in the city. So, in a way, you will always have the factions. Some D&D settings actually play with this, like the Forgottem Realms where some of the pantheon members are actually ascended mortals. Like the Athar, people might actually reject the gods as the omnipotent immortals they themselves claim to be. Likewise, some thrillseekers might go as far as to taste poisonous goods just to know the taste, and have a Clerical buddy or antidote ready next to them. However, Planescape being Planescape, in a limitless Multiverse there is also an infinite chance that somebody believes herself to be the center of the Multiverse, actually believing that she is making it all up herself. A run-off-the-mill anarchist not as raving mad as a Xaositect. A City Guard member doesn't have to be as Lawful as a Harmonium member. The main difference is, to not provide a game-mechanical benefit (and hindrance) for being part of such a group. In a way, you would still have some of the factions, but they'd all be turned into a simple profession. No philosophical faction with an ancient pact with the (un)dead, but mundane (as far as that flies in Planescape) people who perform the job of gathering the dead and burrying or cremating the dead from the city. Instead of the Dustmen, you could have a bunch of people who became the Undertakers. Those could double as prison guards, also representing the Mercykillers. No Harmonium, but still a City Guard of some sorts. Not as in a faction that (through its beliefs) actually gains some magical or magic-like benefit, but simply people from the city that know and apply the law, and govern it in day-to-day matters. Instead of the Guvners (Fraternity of Order) you could probably have some sort of Counsil of Law, with a Mayor or Burgomaster of some sorts. Xaositects could just be anarchists who defy local rule. The Free League can stay as it is, just not call themselves a faction.
Sensates are just folk who like to experience different flavours and tastes, see different sights, just not to the extremes as Sensates. However, some factions leave behind a (minor or sometimes even major) power vacuum if they are taken out. My guess is, that the dabuses are still the rebus-projecting, off-the-ground-floating enigmatic 'servants' of the Lady of Pain. It should still house more than humans, elves and dwarves, but also tieflings, aasimar, githyanki, lizardfolk, and other, more exotic species. It should still be the ring atop the endless spire in the middle of Everything. I would say you could try to see Sigil as any other dead-normal metropolis with a fantasy twist. Sigil without the standard factions like Mercykillers, Harmonium, Dustmen, etc.
