Fantasy ... Taken to the Edge

One of the earliest advertisements for Planescape I remember seeing was this one, which appeared in issue #203 of Dragon (March 1994). Depicting the ruler(?) of Sigil, the Lady of Pain, it certainly piqued my interest. Even now, I think it's a pretty intriguing and evocative advertisement.

  1. One assumes, given the period, that it's a photo of a real object, which suggests that it still exists somewhere.

    So who has the Lady of Pain hanging above their fireplace?

    1. While the original design was by Dana Knutson, the physical model used for the symbol of the Lady was made by Cindy Jackson and Dennis Kauth.
