Climate Adventures in Forgotten Realms

This workshop will explore how to use climate as a motivator for an adventure. Come along to see how medieval narratives can help create lively and breathing narrative worlds - and start your own climate adventure. When April comes with its sweet showers, medieval storytellers know time is ripe for travel and love-making. The Canterbury Tales start when spring comes and brings about the pilgrimage season. Medieval romances use the seasons and the weather to influence the story, either using the danger of a stormy sea or posing a dragon in the place of environmental danger.
