You're exactly right Allan. In Planescape, the factols are the leaders of the factions. (should those be capitalized? uhhh I dunno). Darius is the leader of the Signers, I think.
edit - I'm guessing Anthony got it for his new campaign which seems more mesoamerican-themed, the look would probably fit in perfectly there...
I have no idea what a factol is though, and had always assumed it was a political position/title, rather than a monster. The presence of skulls on the base, however, may suggest otherwise?
haha, these are pretty great. will give them a better peek tomorrow. we just finished up game night here and I'm off to bed.
OK, here are samples of the other minis I was thinking of, Anthony:
Grenadier Temple set from W&W line: http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Wizzards_and_Warriors#SS07 It's a curious mixture of Egyptian and Meso-American stylings, but hey, what can you expect from the late '70s ;)
Naismith Designs' Aztecs @ http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Aztecs and Mayans @ http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Mayans (only 1 image on the latter)
If you're looking for terrain elements, Grendel has a few that are still in production: Aztec Temple @ http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Resin_Box_Sets_%28Grendel%29 and four scenics at http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Resin_Blister_Packs_%28Grendel%29
I should have some spares for the Grenadier pieces; if they look of interest, let me know and I'll pop some in the mail :D
Allan.
I love them!
Some more Aztec-ish eye-candy for your enjoyment: https://markamorin.com/2020/10/22/aztec-warrior-priests-painted-as-tlaxcalans-ral-partha-42-302-circa-1988/

I hadn’t thought of it for the new campaign!—I’ll see if I have some spare other Meso-American-themed minis in the minis drawers!

Indeed. You are correct. She's headed for the Mist Kingdoms!

Cool figure, Anthony!---it would compliment the Aztec-like pieces in the old Grenadier Temple set from their pre-AD&D Wizzards and Warriors days: http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Wizzards_and_Warriors#SS07
