The peoples of medieval times thought of the undead very differently from our hollywood and fantasy tropes today. Learn "authentic" medieval undead traditions & work them into your creative works.
Long Description:
A lot of current medieval fantasy and RPG undead tropes date from the Victorian times or later. However, Medieval Europe had a rich undead tradition. We see how the medieval traditions are different from the modern ones, and how to make your game or story undead more medieval. Will cover creation, prevention, maintenance, care, feeding, and disposal. Participants will have the opportunity to work up a historically plausible undead entity and fit it into their story or game universe.
