	Relatively few ~~sentient creatures~~ live on the Beastlands, compared to the number of animals dwelling here - everything from ants and cats to dinosaurs and they're all celestial creatures, meaning that they're all innately good and pure. Most of the plane is wide-open savannas, deep primeval forests, and unfathomable oceans, so it covers most environments with the exception of deserts, mountains, and tundras. Few things are more awesome than meeting a celestial max hit dice tyrannosaurus rex here.

	Home of the Slaadi, who rule the plane insomuch that one can rule a mess of pure anarchy. This is also the adopted home of the Githzerai, who paradoxically love order and live highly regimented lives (Githzerai monks are as stereotypical as Dwarf Clerics or Orc Barbarians), they live here instead of say Mechanus because they find this plane that so dramatically opposes their way of life to be a great test, despite this excuse, their cities have magic to neutralize the strongly chaotic aligned trait. They used to be more chaotic, but time, shifting editions, and [[Planescape: Torment\|one fuckawesome vidya gaem]] have changed all that.

	The [[Blood War]] occasionally comes here, but since both demon and devil are negatively affected by the plane (-2 to all mental stat related checks for demons for being chaotic evil instead of chaotic neutral, -6 to all mental stat related checks for devils for being lawful evil instead of chaotic neutral), the fact that the Slaadi aren't terribly fond of either and are on average a great deal stronger individually than demons or devils (Lemures and Manes are CR1 1 hit dice monsters, Mud Slaad; the equivalent to these two, are CR6. Black Slaadi at the opposite end of the scale are more powerful than any Demon Lord and can overpower most [[Archdevil]] aspects and make a mockery of pit fiends and balors) if less organized, and the fact that it's not actually in between either plane keeps these incursions down to a minimum.

	*''Expedition to the Demonweb Pits'' There ''is'' official Planescape content for 3.5. The start of the module in chapter 2 (the first is all background info for the DM) has the party arriving in Sigil, with an overview of the city and its rules given. After this it's still expected to be the party's base of operations until the end of the module. Unfortunately, for reasons beyond the comprehension of mortals, Wizards of the Coast decided it would be a great idea to not mention the Planescape connection at any point in the book description. Thus even dedicated fans of the setting often have no idea it exists. Not helped by that the module itself is kinda meh outside of the Planescape stuff.		*''Expedition to the Demonweb Pits'' There ''is'' official Planescape content for 3.5.

In 2022. Wizards of the Coast announced a new three-book set, promising a brand new campaign, setting and bestiary. In addition, a new PC race called Glitchling was also revealed, “a cousin or perhaps a sibling to a rogue Modron,” an immortal being associated with the Planescape setting which the players will be able to build-up skill and personality-wise. Later that year it was confirmed that the new campaign setting would be releasing as a boxed set similar to Spelljammer: Adventures in Space sometime in Autumn of 2023.

	Whilst the sections above list everything that actually bears the Planescape marker, the city of [[Sigil]] has managed to survive in D&D better than the formal setting has. Sigil is fleshed out in detail in the [[Manual of the Planes]] for both [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]] and [[Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition]], with the latter being 98% a reprint of the former. The 4e version of Sigil was expanded upon in the 4e [[Dungeon Master's Guide]] 2. [[Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition]] gives Sigil little mention except for saying that it exists and has portals.

Tasha's did expand on this, by mentioning a little more in their rules for patrons. Likewise, a version of Planescape will be created in 2023 for 5th Edition, according to a recent reveal. More than likely, this will explore a new version of Sigil.

	These post-AD&D versions of Sigil depict a post-[[Faction War]] take on the city, with the Factions having faded into the woodwork and a rising new power structure made up of guilds and gangs lacking the philosophical unifying power of the original Sigil.

	* '''The Ring-givers'''. A mirror image of the Fated, the Ring-Givers believe that wealth exists to be given away, and furthermore that those who give shall be given to in turn. [[Wizard]]s give their time and effort to amass knowledge and spells, [[cleric]]s give devotion to receive power, and so on. Thus, whatever a Ring-Giver receives, he gives away as soon as possible, asking in return only a favor or another gift. And, uniquely, the receiver will feel compelled to honor this request and give something to the Ring-Giver in return. What this return gift is depends on the gift they were given, the power of the receiver compared to that of the Ring-giver (Bargainers, Beggars) in question and how much that particular member is carrying on them at the time. Evil Ring-givers can use their powers to strike bargains with [[Tanar'ri]] that the fiends sometimes honor for a bit, which makes these Bargainers rather dangerous.		* '''The Ring-givers'''.

	* '''The Society of Pain''': A bunch of sadomasochists kicked out of the Society of Sensation for being creepy and focusing purely on experiencing negative sensations. They like to share these negative sensations with others, which for obvious reasons has made them quite unpopular.		* '''The Society of Pain''': A bunch of sadomasochists kicked out of the Society of Sensation for being creepy and focusing purely on experiencing negative sensations.

	* '''Symmetrists''': An odd sect from Carceri, and influenced by that plane's nature of imprisonment. Symmetrists believe that planar travel damages the structure of the multiverse, and so all portals should be shut down. They did somehow manage to get a foothold in Sigil, but just as quickly lost it because trying to sabotage portals in the City of Doors is a ''great'' way to get the Lady of Pain mad at you, with ~~[[Rocks Fall Everyone Dies~~ predictable results]].		* '''Symmetrists''': An odd sect from Carceri, and influenced by that plane's nature of imprisonment.

	* '''The Verdant Guild'''. The Wylders believe that the wilderness is the foundation of life and endure past any civilization. People need the resources of the wild to survive, and as such it needs to be protected. As such, any non-lawful and non-evil people join the Verdant Guild in what is essentially saving the trees. The sect's headquarters is on the [[Beastlands]], where they live in peace alongside nature and the animals there. The Wylders all wear animal masks they made themselves, which serves as both a badge of office and the ability to talk with the animal depicted on the mask. In addition, because of their time on the Beastlands the Wylders tend to pick up on navigating skills, becoming able to find their way around even in new locations.		* '''The Verdant Guild'''.
