...I want to do something eventually that involves someone in the Middle Ages.

Are you looking at transport the person back to the middle ages or is the whole story set in the days of Robin Hood ???

 

[amasterfound]

either one sounds nice to me! I like both kinds of stories.

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is there to hear it dose it still make a noise? And how would you know if you are not there???

I hear it. I already explained that to Bishop Berkely.

I think that a Medieval story would be awesome, but it has to be all set in the time period, none of this time traveling stuff...dont' get me wrong, I love sci-fi stories, but this would has to be special! Lol

Interesting feedback. Actually, I was thinking of a mercenary's life during the feudal wars of the late Middle Ages. Probably an Italian condottieri. Someone with a hard-nosed, cynical view of life and no patience with the courtly rites of the French knights. Making someone like that come to life and find a lover (probably lower-class) would be more interesting IMO than the overplayed, knight-lady deal. After all, any actual contact between the knight and his lady was rare and dangerous.

Early, high, late middle ages?

oh my bdsm brain goes to "The Inquisition!"

There was the plague... not that there was anything sexy about it...

 

[SEVERUSMAX]

I'm thinking of during the Hundred Years' War. An Italian mercenary is hired by the English, fucks French peasant girls, falls for a succession of them, and becomes completely pessimistic about his own side's chances of victory.

Thinking

I've been working on a story set in the middle ages for a while now. Not really, I guess its more fantasy oriented. Which brings me to the dillemma I face with these things (always, always).

How do you ensure that you stay in period? I mean shit, I am forever trying to come up with crazy contraptions to allow people to do this, or that, or something else, and then I have to pull myself back and figure out a way that people in the pre-industrial era would have solved a problem. Mostly via magic, in my world any damn ways!

So, any ideas?

On to the Inquisition. That's a truly awesome idea right there. Especially since the RCC had not yet totally gone gay (not that there's anything wrong with that), and lots of bishops and so on and so forth were fucking everything in sight.

"If we fuck her and she screams she's a witch!"

Snooper was just the best at this

Ooooooo! Someone write this, I wanna read it!!!!

I suck at period pieces....

Of course, with a midieval story, you also have oppertunities to over-use puns having to do with impaling things on lances.

Hi everyone,

Inspiring thread, I now want to write a story within medieval times, one snag however is that my knowledge of this period isn't what it could be, so my story, if it is written, will likely be riddled with historical inaccuracies or indeed a complete lack of historical information full stop, perhaps I'd use some fictional settings but still very much in the whole spirit of the time (Or what I assume is the general demeanor of the age).

For example I'm tempted to write one regarding a very powerful general who takes his army throughout Britain, battling various armies and laying siege to various castles... After these festivities he and his bodyguards have their way with the womenfolk of the vanquished enemy. Alternatively, perhaps it'd involve a returning army of defenders bathed in glory and treated to all the delights contained within their castle on return, maybe the wives/daughters of the slain throw themselves at other, very much alive noblemen in a bid to maintain their high standing or something.

Another idea would be a disgraced soldier turned mercenary strolling from tavern to tavern looking for employment, but having such a comical reputation he just gets mocked, even by the barmaids. Too cowardly to battle real men, he takes out his frustration on insolent barmaids by giving them a damn good seeing to.

If I do them I hope to cover up the lack of historical placement with extensive dialogue which will kind of have a medieval flavor. Alternatively, would someone be willing take my story if it's finished and perhaps tart it up with these elements that I can't provide? For a medieval story, do you think historical detail is essential? Reckon anyone will pull me over for using an improvised castle, battle or war?

Thanks

So he is definitely more of a lover than a fighter?

"Well, no, I can't use a battle-axe, but I can tie eight different knots with my tongue!"

Perhaps at the climax of the story (climax in the traditional storytelling meaning, rather than the erotic storytelling meaning) the soldier saves a maiden in distress from some bad sort or another, proving that he can fight when it matters to him or something.

Interesting ideas. However, I think that I will try the situation of a rough and rugged Italian of the lower ranks who achieves middle rank through sheer skill and courage, and who goes about laying the women and making cynical observations. I will have him fall for a girl or two, here or there, perhaps, but they should be common folk. I think that most medieval lore is missing the plight of the common man. I might make it in the late 14th Century, where he is fighting for the Black Prince against French troops. He has to be tough enough and among enough fellow Cynics that he is safe from being hauled before a court for heresy or sedition.

Could cross over to the sex in church thread.... lol

Especially with a St. Andrew's cross or non death crucifixion.

I suppose sex between unequals in that time would probably be close to what we consider rape today. Very rough and quick.

Unless your mercenary has a fetish of some kind.

 

[SEVERUSMAX]

I was thinking most in terms of what was called "wenching"- the pursuit of tavern wenches and other more open-minded womenfolk.

oh my bdsm brain goes to "The Inquisition!"

There was the plague... not that there was anything sexy about it...

Maby I am a bit late here but...there is some sexy things tha took placer during the plague. Do not get me wrong here the plague in it self is not sexy. There are historic examples of how the nobles in mostly italy and france (what i know of), isolated themselves from the lower classes in their mansions and hunting castles and lived there in orgies of food, wine and sex. Same desperate partying can you find in more resent events like when the plague hit Stockholm in the eightenth century...

So i can clearly see a good story dyring the great plague

A noble persuit with centuries of tradition. I support this practice, for Tradition's sake.
