| - | Soon after returning to Sigil, [[martigan|Martigan]] was surprised to find Kari, his trainer from the [[ciphers|Transcendent Order]] waiting for him at the [[sylvan_wayfarer|Sylvan Wayfarer]]. Kari had a dire warning... a half-fiend bounty hunter sent by Bloodwing, the godfather of all Baatezu in Sigil, was hunting him and closing in on the Wayfarer quickly. | + | Soon after returning to Sigil, [[martigan|Martigan]] was surprised to find [[the great gymnasium#Kari]], his trainer from the [[ciphers|Transcendent Order]] waiting for him at the [[sylvan_wayfarer|Sylvan Wayfarer]]. Kari had a dire warning... a half-fiend bounty hunter sent by [[Bloodwing]], the godfather of all Baatezu in Sigil, was hunting him and closing in on the Wayfarer quickly. Bloodwing, it seems, had discovered Martigan was in Sigil, and sought to punish him for his breach of the Pact Insidious he had struck with them before. |
| - | With the advance warning, and a little magic from the rest of the group, Martigan and Kari managed to escape to the [[the_great_gymnasium|Great Gymnasium]] where Martigan could be protected by his Faction. The rest of the planeswalkers met up with him there later, where Martigan revealed more of his past. He explained that he had accepted a Blood War contract to serve under the Baatezu in Carceri in order to find and retrieve a magical sword stolen from his world. After his camp had come under attack by an overwhelming force of Tanar'ri, he fled, only to be captured and locked away in the prison the planeswalkers had found him in. | + | With the advance warning, and a little magic from the rest of the group, Martigan and Kari managed to escape to the [[the_great_gymnasium|Great Gymnasium]] where Martigan could be protected by his Faction. While Martigan remained hidden in relative safety, the rest of the group approached Bloodwing's minions and attempted to negotiate for his release. Unfortunately, the Baatezu (being master manipulators and dissemblers) twisted the negotiations to their advantage. One of Bloodwing's subordinates, an Amnizu named [[Bloodwing#Marrow Gristlegut]], demanded that the group surrender the True Name to him, in addition to assisting the Baatezu in finding and capturing the Blood War recruiter that had sold the contract to Martigan in the first place. The recruiter had failed to meet quotas and had gone into hiding to avoid his punishment, and the Baatezu wanted him back. |

| - | Because he had run out of a contract, the Baatezu were likely trying to find and punish him for breach of his agreement. Fortunately, Martigan had a plan. Through an agreement with a Yugoloth in Sigil, he had acquired Bloodwing's True Name, and hoped to use it as leverage to get out of his contract. | + | |

| Knowing that turning a man over to the Baatezu, even an evil man, would mean torture and death, most of the group balked at the deal and refused. Even after negotiating down to simply capturing and torturing the recruiter for only a week, not everybody in the group could agree. Finally, acting on his own, [[tobers|Tobers]] cut a deal with Marrow Gristlegut, turning the recruiter over without the knowledge of the rest of his party. | Knowing that turning a man over to the Baatezu, even an evil man, would mean torture and death, most of the group balked at the deal and refused.
