ScatterBlocks: City of Stairs and Doors (Part 1)
🕑 Added 2023-02-25 01:40:29 +0000 UTCAs some of you might have caught in prior updates, we've been working on a ScatterBlocks set for the "City of Stairs and Doors," the interdimensional city at the center of our current Mirror Walkers project. Problem is... I just keep wanting to make it bigger. So, here's the first half, with the rest coming in March as we continue with this theme to flesh the world out until the book/game is done. Even at half capacity, this thing is bigger than our other ScatterBlocks sets, so I'm looking forward to seeing it in its full glory.
The whole point of the setting is to provide a neutral place where forces from across the Multiverse can champion their dying gods and demon-deities and what-have-you. With a mix of ancient and industrial architecture, it's a strange place without obvious progenitors, with much of the infrastructure built into impossible or seemingly useless configurations. In my mind, it's a way of injecting a little Phantom Tollbooth DNA into the medley, and I'd like to get weirder with further additions. From the WIP document...
OF THE CITY OF STAIRS AND DOORS... "Called “the Yellow City” by some, the wizards who collect the true names of things know it as “Zurithiel.” Many dream of this place, but few will travel here. A confusing mass of labyrinthine architecture of unknown origin, it is a world both barren and bereft of obvious purpose. The City of Stairs and Doors rests at the center of the Shadow Continuum, drawing beings from disparate realities into its strange and ominous gravity.
The files are in reward folders now ($5+) and all of them print support-free on FDM machines. If you have any ideas of some weird parts you'd like to see added next month, yack it at us in the comments. Have a great weekend, folks,

Thanks! It's probably super weird, but I completely missed the Diablo series. I think it had something to do with not being able to afford a proper computer when they were in the zeitgeist.

Holy shit that's so cool! Totally makes me think of Diablo 2's Arcane Sanctuary
