Episode 12: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Manage episode 363215485 series 3359487
Welcome to Wonderful World of Darklords! It's been almost a year, and we're celebrating by going back to where it all began: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It's gorgeous, it's groundbreaking, it's a classic fairy tale, it has that nightmare fuel transformation scene . . . but in the film as presented, there's even less of a world than Sleeping Beauty, so how can we turn it into a darkly delicious domain? With folklore, that's how.
Topics discussed include:
- The mythology-rich real-world location that inspired the setting for the movie, which will immediately provide you with every plot hook you could possibly want (no, not the Black Forest, another mythology-rich real-world location that the Brothers Grimm loved);
- A back story and modus operandi for the wicked queen that gives her something to do beyond brooding in her mirror and searching for Snow White, complete with hags, ill-advised magical bargains, and gruesome blood magic;
- Our aging-uppiest aging-up section to date, because boy howdy does the queen have a certain vibe;
- A boatload of ideas to integrate the wicked queen with a certain other beautiful raven-haired darklord who loves poison;
- and more!

The full writeup for the Queenswood is available for free on DM's Guild: https://www.dmsguild.com/product/434228/The-Queenswood--A-Ravenloft-Domain-of-Dread?affiliate_id=241770
The book series Rachel was raving about is the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. Check it out! (Unfortunately, you have to read the series in order, so you can't just jump straight to the wonderfulness of Winter or the swooniness of Scarlet/Wolf.)
