Regarding the campaign setting of Slaine the Role-Playing-Game of Celtic-Heroes and what the Falian Tribal Source Book is about. Not that it's directly ever referred to, but there is the practice of mostly white people who paint themselves black in order to obfuscate themselves in order to become more efficient killers/asssasin's of the night.
Although, I am just running the Invulnerable King/Teeth of the Moon Sow module that doesn't even seem to include any Falian's at least in the beginning. One of my players from the dark continent may notice this or even read the book. Not that have read much of that tribal book, I do know of this from reading Slaine graphic novels, namely the Horned God where I got most of my knowledge of their practices from....
I just worried they might see this as blackfacing and not the -not so innocent art of improving one's stealth-.
It's a shame cause, right now it's beginning to make me feel uncomfortable about running the game further down the track when I'll eventually let participants play any type of character they would like to given the amount of source books and articles from magazines that come to this campaign setting. It's really a favorite of mine, since I enjoy the comic so much.
Apologies, for bringing this up on the forum if this topic is not really allowed, but I was wondering if this bothers others as well and if there is a safe way around this?
