I find it infinitely whimsical that skeletons, as opposed to every other undead monster, are often depicted as smiling, happy, and dancing.
so I’m taking that concept and using it for my homebrew world, Karschra- specifically for the entities known as the lords and ladies of Death. They merrily dance through the infinite grave-festival that is death, courting with the spirits who give everything to them for an ounce of their power or a second chance at life.
I believe there’s two primary reasons for that 1. Skulls have no lips, so it may appear that they are in a constant state of smiling and joy. 2. Juxtapositions. Death isn’t typically thought to be a happy thing, so artist thought it would be interesting to portray skeletons, a symbol of death as smiling, because artist are weird like that. Hence things like Vanitas, Memento Mori and Danse Macabre. Or I could be pulling things straight out my backsides. That’s also plausible.
And to remind people that death is inevitable. Sounds cool, Arch!

O sorrow, I have ended, you see, by respecting you, because I am certain you will never leave me.
Ah! I realize it: your beauty lies in the force of your being. You are like those who never left the sad fireside corner of my poor black heart.
O my sorrow, you are better than a well-beloved: because I know that on the day of my final agony, you will be there, lying in my sheets, O sorrow, so that you might once again attempt to enter my heart.

It also has nine rings each larger and worse. So partially based on our favorite bible fanfic, Inferno. And it uses some of the same concepts as TSF.

Sadly, it’s mostly cults these days. I’d love to get the old days of taverns back up and running, but I’m not sure everyone wants that.
Me and some others are making a tavern rn, but it’s gonna take a loooong time. I was gonna make one earlier but it would’ve spoiled my campaign.

What kind of tavern would people be interested in? I could in theory start one
You guys are awesome and mean so much to me. And mean so much to each other.
Uhhhhhhh classic fantasy, steampunk, comeptition/hunger games would be my preference but idk about everyone else.

Classic fantasy tends to be the one that lasts the longest- Lord's Rest etc. Not skilled enough in managing pvp to run a hunger games probably lol
