The
Lady is the
ruler of the
city of
Sigil in the
Planescape setting for
AD&D. She is seldom seen, and is an true
unknown quantity. Some say she is a
goddess, others the embodiment of
pain, others a
mortal adventurer or some
demon or
angel. She appears infrequently, and seems to be a tall, androgynous, levitating figure whose face is ringed with
blades.
Also an
epithet of the
focal character of
Swinburne's
Dolores.
