Sigil's Systems and Content

SPL is an established full RP server in the Planescape setting. Earn XP through roleplay, exploration, monster hunting, and multiple extensive quest systems. Enjoy dozens of free-to-play exotic races and access to more by playing here. In addition to countless new spells, feats, and classes, we have made massive changes to the vanilla game to make everything more balanced and a lot more fun to play.

Our module is enormous with well over 1000 areas with dozens of towns and cities with hundreds of shops to visit and many beautiful and varied taverns to relax and roleplay in. We have more than 100 unique dungeons with a loot system containing thousands of unique items and dozens of bosses with their own custom mechanics. We also have some of the best and most elaborate questline dungeons in NWN that each contain dozens of areas with totally randomly generated passages, monsters, traps, puzzles, loot, and bosses.

We have many unique systems, including expansive player housing and shop systems, an extensive crafting system, thousands of loot pool items, randomly generated gear, over 100 dungeons, unique boss mechanics, daily quests, dozens of planar languages, free roleplay skills, custom music, sailing, flying, dimension dooring, planeshifting, teleporting, 2-way gating, drowning, environmental damage, over 50 epic spells, private pocket plane mansions, server-wide weather mechanics, hundreds of custom summons, companion voice throwing, unique nameable pets, character statistics tracking, resting buff mechanics, world buffs, dozens of custom elixirs, hundreds of artifacts, and many more. Our character customization is top tier with per-part clothing coloring, hidable helmets, a large assortment of automated wings and tails, and hundreds of unique models and heads.

We have the largest variety of automated free-to-play races out of any server, as well as 50 classes, each with modified mechanics to be as fun as possible.

We have at least two open events every week, and players may submit personal event requests to our Questmasters. The server is very character-plot-driven. Unwanted PvP is almost non-existent, and permadeath is incredibly rare. Our respawn system is incredibly forgiving, so there's no stress when enjoying the many fun challenges of our expansive PvE system.
