The Grim Reaper: Funeral and Mourning Customs in the 19th Century Recorded live on 3/20/2025 5:30pm in Ballroom E Our spectacular hosts are Madame Perry, Tracy Chan, and Beverly Stuart. Our panel will take a deep dive into all the things you ever wanted to know about death in Victorian times but were afraid to ask! Death was considered an ordinary part of life back in the day. Most people died at home and were buried fairly quickly and close by. Preserving the body became popular during the Civil War with the development of embalming. Mourning customs were very specific – what you could wear, and for how long, and for whom (parents, spouses, children all had different mourning periods). Photographing the departed was also commonly done. And then there were the fake mediums, charlatans who proclaimed they could summon the dead by staging seances (and ripping off grieving people). please check out these awesome folks online: Madame Perry, and Madame Perry's Salon at: https://www.facebook.com/madameperryssal

Tucson Comic Con 2024 Panel Narrative Role-Playing Games - A New Genre?  Panelists: Becca Aazlor, Clayton Aazlor, Kirsten Aazlor Recorded live at Tucson Comic Con Saturday August 31, 2024 :: 11:20 am to 12:10 pm There has always been a massive divide between the kind of role one takes on in a video game or table top roleplaying game (TTRPG), and the kind of role one takes on when imagining and playing make-believe with friends as children. While D&D and many other systems try and bridge this divide, the problem is simply that the perspective of TTRPGs has always been mechanic first and narrative second. We don't have to play this way. Come and check out Transcendence. The first of its kind, this narrative RPG system has developed a set of mechanics to support your imagination. It's an entirely new system and approach that will change more than just how you game with friends. Be warned though - this game isn't made for everyone. Transcendence, and this panel, is for those who constantly feel stifled and w
