Walpurgis Night has given way to Beltane. But Walpurgis Week continues. Today I return to my roots in AD&D and bring the next in my Myths & Monsters series. This series grew out of my desire to cover more myths, legends, and monsters than the AD&D 1st Edition Deities & Demigods and my posting series here, One Man's God.
Today I cover some favorite and familiar ground.
Myths & Monsters Vol. 3 - Lilith & Lilim
“Of Adam’s first wife, Lilith, it is told.
The witch he loved before the gift of Eve...”
— Dante Gabriel Rossetti, “Lilith”
This is the next of a series of myths and legends that began as a thought experiment about gods, monsters, and syncretism of beliefs.
These aim to provide your Advanced-era game with new gods and goddesses, as well as new monsters, demons, and other adversaries.
Myths & Monsters Vol. 3 - Lilith & Lilim covers some familiar and favorite ground. Lilith and the Lilim. I have taken creatures that all have similar features and mythologies and combined them into a demonic family, the Lilim the Daughters of Lilith. I present creatures from around the ancient world who appear to be related and combine them into a single collective.
This is the third in my series of Myths & Monsters, where I take myths and legends from around the world and give them a new spin for the First Edition of the world’s greatest fantasy adventure game.
