A dastardly plot's hatching in Dis, a chance for the hordes of ultimate evil to strike a hammer-blow against the forces of good. It'll take cutters with brains as sharp as their swords to journey into fiery Baator itself and try to put things right. But look out, berk, 'cause there's plots on top of plots, and it's hard to see the dark of things when you're caught in a fiendish peel! BACKGROUND The plane of the Outlands is theoretically shaped somewhat like a ring, and along its outer edge lie sixteen gate-towns, so named because they were built around or near gates leading to the sixteen surrounding Outer Planes. For the most part, the attitudes and beliefs of the folks in each town mirror the nature of the plane the burg's associated with. So the town of Plague-Mort, for example, built around the gate to the Abyss, is about as chaotic and evil a gate-town as a body'd ever want to see. Excelsior, on the other hand, poised at the base of Mount Celestia, is a town that literally glows, full of sods so pleasant they might drive a visi- tor barmy. Fact is, if the folks in a gate-town get so worked up that it becomes too much like its next-door plane, the whole place goes sliding right off the Outlands and becomes part of the plane. Well, berk, the chant is Fortitude's finally ready to make the big leap into Arca- dia. The Harmonium - the faction with the strongest influence in the gate-town and the plane as well - has been whipping the folks of Fortitude into a fevered pitch of order, harmony, and good, hoping to push the town's alignment to the point where it'll start to slide. What few know, though, is the dark of the faction's zeal: They want to make up for land they lost from Arcadia. See, they brought chaotic types into the lawful plane to turn them into "proper citizens," but the influx of chaos caused a whole layer of Arcadia to slip into another plane. To usher Fortitude into Arcadia, the faction's planned a sparkling ceremony — dubbeSampled the Harmonious file Ascension — and they've arranged for a much-venerated paladin from Arcadia to preside. This paladin, known as Daneel the Smiter of Fiends, has cut such a noble swath through the forces of evil with his famous holy avenger Y0U CAN' sword Guardian that he's practically the living embodiment of law and order. With a CHANGE A BERK-S m ND bit of luck, his presence and guidance at the ceremony'll stir up the citizens of Forti- Wi + H A S + ICK. tude just enough to push the town over the edge. i+ + AKES A HAmmeR, A+ LEAS+ flEND INeiN + ITl£N Daneel's legendary campaigns against evil have earned him a few enemies, not the least of which is the archduke Dispater, ruler of Dis on the plane of Baator. Practi- PR0VERB cally a power, Dispater could kill the paladin easily enough - if that's how the baatezu went about their business. However, the lawful fiends prefer to outwit their enemies and ensnare them in subtle traps. Dispater's got just such a trap laid out for Daneel. From Anarchist spies who've wormed their way into the ranks of the Harmonium, Dispater learned that Daneel's making a trip to Sigil to meet with Factol Sarin just a few days before the Ascen- sion. The archduke's arranged for a gang of baatezu to waylay the paladin, lift his prized holy sword, and bring it back to the Iron Tower on Dis. When righteous bash- ers come after the sword, Dispater'll let 'em have it back without too much fuss — primarily because the sword'll be tainted by then, inscribed with a secret gate spell designed to open a path between the planes. A blood can probably guess what'll happen next. The holy avenger'W be returned to Daneel, and the Hardheads'll start the Ascension just as quick as they can. But as soon as Fortitude starts to shift, the sword'll open a gate to Dis, allowing the spirit of a fiend to come through and take control of Daneel. The fiend'll make • 2.

  • The Plane Truth
    From the Notebooks of Fallendor the Mage: I t has happened again. No peace this night or for a fortnight past. I have been cursed, robbed of my rest by a maddening vision the Codex of infinite Planes! It has been lost since before my time, the time of my father the time of all my known ancestors. Yet every night in my dreams, I see the cursed book. It hovers beyond the veil of reality, a dream that has more substance than reality. I try to touch the pages, but every motion forward propels the book away. Frustration fills me and I begin to run. Every night I run faster toward it, but every night I am no nearer to my goal. In the morning, I awaken with new visions filling my mind. I began recording these visions in my notebook as I remember them. They are not the random scenes of dreams but messages, encrypted in a code of images. I am certain they are passages from the Codex of Infinite Planes. I have a theory about the Codex. I do not think it exists yet, at least not as a material thing. It exists only in the world of sleep. There it reveals itself, a page each night, and every morning I dutifully transcribe its pages into the world of flesh. I am no more than another of the great books scribes, like the Archmage Tzunk before me. At first the passages seemed random and meaningless, but now I sense a pattern. The Codexs magic is the magic of words.
