Timing:
Sat 2:00 PM - Sat 3:00 PM
Location:
Marriott / Marriott Ballroom 4
Long Description:
Poetry and gaming have, can we say, a poetic relationship? Join our panel of expert speculative poets and gamers as they discuss reimagining the way we incorporate both poetry and poets into RPGs, going beyond the traditional cliches of the bard to one that remembers how poets in global traditions are often figures of great adventure and misadventure, and ways to improve the incorporation of rhymes, riddles, and the like in both fantasy and science fiction settings without obligating players to write complicated forms on the spot. Panelists: Marie Bilodeau (moderator), Brandon O'Brien, C. S. E. Cooney, Bryan Thao Worra. Track: GCWS Multimedia.
