Dabuses'ss

Heh. I like that.

If that's not the case, though, my guess is that one of two things would happen.

Either A) the Daubus would continue to ignore you, work around you, and go back and re-do the part you did when you left or B) they would work around you, and if you weren't doing it quite right would try to instruct you in the proper manner of completing the task.

I still like the idea that you just keep doing it, finding it more and more enjoyable until you notice your feet aren't touching the ground anymore. Then your new friend leads you off into undersigil to get your new uniform. . .

Yeah. Most likely even if you followed a dabus around and undid everything it tried to do, it would just get a little cross with you and ask you to leave. Mazing is really a pretty rare event if you get down to it, and usually requires something along the lines of Aoskar worship, or dabus murder, or trying to destabilize Sigil.

*Possible spoilers for Faction War and Harbinger House*

The only *actual* flayings or mazings I can remember in PS cannon (I'm sure I'm missing quite a few) are the cult of the Lady in Harbinger House, the villains at the end of Harbinger house, if things turned out in a specific manner, and dang near every Faction leader in Faction War. Skall didn't even seem to mind all that much, if I recall correctly

It depends what you consider to be cannon Planescape material. A quick search of the Sigil NPC database popped out a list of some people known to have been mazed by the Lady:

• Thirin Jecobs
• Aratik Melber the Mad
• Vartus Timlin
• Ravel Puzzlewell
• Jayk the Snake
• Karfhud
• Silverwind
• Tessali
• Theseus, a.k.a. the Amnesian Hero
• The Nameless One

From that PS novel a while back... I think it was called Pages of Pain. I didn't especially like it, because I don't like seeing the LoP's true nature being somehow involved with ancient Greek myth.

I think there's one adventure in 'The Well of Worlds' in which the PCs wind up invading the Maze of the former factol of the defunct faction the Expansionists or somesuch. There's the possibility of the PCs letting him loose intentionally or accidentally, so that's one example, at least.

Yup, that'd be the one. Although in the novel, when he first shows up in Sigil, he's an amnesiac on a mission from Poseidon. Actually, he's one of only three Greek myth characters hinted at having visited Sigil. His girlfriend Ariadne also makes an appearance in the novel and, if I recall correctly, there's a fleeting mention made of Perseus is the Torment video game.

All in all, the inclusion of Greek myth is handled very well and isn't out of place considering that Mount Olympus and the Greek pantheon of Gods are firmly rooted in the campaign setting. And although Poseidon seems to want the Lady of Pain to think that she's possibly his daughter, in fact the Lady herself discounts the claim as fraudulent. By the end of the novel, you end up knowing few if any real facts about the LoP; which was the author's original mandate.

Lots of people have escaped their mazes over the years. *Warning Spoilers* In Torment, both Ravel and the Nameless One both seem more or less able to flee their mazes at will, though the former chooses to remain in hers. Theseus and Tessali eventually escape theirs and in Faction War adventure, it is shown that Rowan Darkwood uses a wish to escape his maze after a fashion.

All in all, the Lady seems content to ignore such escapees as long as they don't do something else to offend her.
