That's what I used to think. Mostly because of the spelling, But it's the basis for 'the laugh' as in "laugh and giggle" which is really Victorian slang like a lot of the Planescape flavour.
I'm not sure what a citizen of Sigil is called, if it even has citizens, but common slang is "berk" or "cutter."
'ite'is resident for 3 generations, the other denotes the person considers Sigil their home.
"Warrior: No spells from memory. No scrolls except Town Portal."
:TP is quite apropos. Are Warriors supposed to be Godsmen?
I left out factions for sanity's sake. Although I did consider a Harmonium Guard character. I agonized over giving Rogues TP from memory, but decided not to.
"Visiting shrines is encouraged. Consider even Facinating, Ornate, or Sacred shrines as a low-level Warrior or Rogue. You'll be able to cast the spells you learned for the price."
:I imagine Sensates would especially like shrines. New experiences are always worth the price.
Agreed.
:Over all, my Planescape lore is too rusty to suggest much... but there is a hell of a lot of lore to be had, to the point where this variant could become arbitrarily complicated. But simplicity is easier to play. I will say that I don't quite yet see the Planescape archetypes you've crafted, but that could be because I haven't played PS:T in at least a year.
I just wanted the classes to be old D&D like, and also not a cakewalk. I suppose giving them each a faction/faction system would give them a bit more depth. Planecape really shines in terms of dialogue and situation, and both of those don't apply well to Diablo. If you have suggestions, I'm listening. That's how I work: a little now to see if anyone reads/cares/plays and more later if they do.
This variant's got me wanting to play Torment... *mouse hand twitches*
Torment won't run on my current computer, but I'm working on it.
