Sig: City of Blades

Heists, Gods, and Faction Wars at the Heart of the Multiverse

Welcome to Sig - a planar Möbius strip of god-markets, celestial politics, and reality-bending street fights. In Sig: City of Blades, you play a crew of Freebooters carving out territory in the nexus of the ’verse. You’ll steal sacred relics, negotiate with immortal powers, and stab your rivals in the back (preferably with a magical blade still dripping with meaning).

This is Forged in the Dark taken to the next plane - literally. It’s faction-driven, high-magic, and unapologetically weird.

What’s Inside?

• Powered by Forged in the Dark, with unique twists to fit Sig’s planar setting
• Build modular characters using Culture, Lineage, and Devotion
• Navigate 48 territory claims across a living city where every block is contested
• Play out bold heists, subtle schemes, and street-level diplomacy
• Consequence system scales with stress and story stakes — from a bruised ego to a major betrayal
• Includes a detailed map of Sig, tracking who owns what and where power shifts next

Factions You Might Work For:

• The Glimmer Knights: star-born enforcers and diplomats sworn to cold honor
• The Order of Ashen Keys: rogue warcasters guarding forbidden lore
• The Daughters of the Raven: elite messengers, smugglers, and vengeance-driven infiltrators

Why We Love It at Dicey Business:

It's Planescape meets Blades in the Dark with a shot of arcane rebellion. Sig takes everything fun about faction politics, weird cosmology, and criminal drama and throws it into a planar meat grinder. Whether you’re here for clever spies, rogue sorcerers, or the chance to overthrow an actual god - this game’s for you.
