05-31-07, 08:39 PM Why would she be a Vestige? She's still the undisputed ruler of Sigil. She needs to be dead first.

It's just something awesome that somewhat made up. And who says the Lady's alive, or even exists at all? >>a

Anyone that's had her shadow fall on them.

Or the dabus's.

Or the squirrels in the robe and party mask.

She exists in reality. And she's shown enough disinterest that she isn't likely to be a good choice to become a vestige.

That said, if anyone wants to get her a shot, I'd like to see it. I just think it would be hard to explain why she an entity that cannot affect reality except through Binders, but is able to kill gods without them, has a physical form, and can keep other deities out of Sigil.

06-01-07, 01:54 AM A long time ago, maybe three to six months, the idea of Epic Vestiges were being thrown about when it was hypothesized that the Lady of Pain herself was a very powerful, albeit almost suicidal, vestige to bind to.

While she does exist, in some sense, she is none-the-less untouchable by the Powers, and does not leave Sigil to take part of reality anywhere in the Multiverse.

Perhaps, just perhaps, if one goes over the wall in Sigil, they too may become a Vestige... Hmmm, I now have more to think on. Thanks alot!

As for the powers she might give, probably her typical powers but weaker. Maybe some power to control or open gateways between worlds, flay people alive (obviously), and/or maze them.

Well, Mazing is found in the Mother of Minotaurs vestige, so that would be redundant.

As for being split like Orcus, Tenebrous was a name Orcus was worshipped under. After he botched the return to life ceremony, the divine spark was lost. The vestige is the echo of Orcus as Tenebrous, and represents an entity just as grasping that is still worshipped under that name. I have a hard time picturing something like that happening with the Lady.

At the same time, I could picture the vestige being a compilation of the seeds of divinity the Lady purposefully sheds off from time to time when some Barmy starts worshipping her and she deals with him.
