Portals & Paupers - Planescape

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Claw your way up from the shadows of Sigil, where every coin is blood-earned and every ally is a gamble. A gritty D&D adventure of street smarts, planar heists, and the raw thrill of rising from nothing. Think Oliver Twist meets Peaky Blinders—with portals to Hell. Ready to roll?"

Game style

Theater of the Mind

“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
